Traffic X Airport Facilities

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   As the ILS was not working at Heathrow EGLL runway 9L, I have disabled the Traffic X Airport Facilities in the scenery library after reading on the support page that this might have been the problem. The ILS for  runway 9L is now working perfectly. I am now thinking - should I leave the Traffic X Airport Facilities left disabled? What does Traffic X Airport Facilities actually do and does it matter if it is enabled or disabled? I haven't noticed any effect with traffic at airports so would leaving it disabled be OK? 

Any ideas/enlightenment would be great cheers and merry xmas.

	Hi, Traffic x airport facilities add more parking bays and improved runway and taxi movements, 50 being changed for real world a/c parking, Heathrow being an obvious one of the 50.Unfortunately it has this ils problem embeded in it, so far as I know this has not been sorted? by deleting airport facilities you are reverting to fsx default airports.

	You can disable the Traffic X version of EGLL without disabling Traffic X Airport Facilities. The path to Traffic X's EGLL file is: Microsoft Flight Simulator X\JustFlight\TrafficX\AirportFacilities\Scenery ("AirportFacilities" may be "AirportFacilitiesX" on your system). Simply rename AFX_EGLL.bgl to AFX_EGLL.bgl_ by adding an underscore to the file extension. The next time you run FSX, FSX will automatically use the default airport for EGLL.
