       control many of the premier private/corporate jets you will see in and out of PHL on a daily basis.  
     
       -- Learn departure and arrival traffic flow as these GA aircraft typically have a wide-range of flight speeds that you will
          have to account for
       -- Learn how to adjust your commands to keep required separation in tact on both arrivals & departures
       -- Improve your skills by assigning new runways for final approach to maintain separation and avoid mid-air collisions

    Terminal Re-Assignments --
       -- Removed airlines that have gone out of business and/or merged for a clean look and easy reference

       -- Spirit moved to correct terminal E
       -- Terminal F now featuring ExecJets (EJA)

    // Proper use of this CUSTOM schedule //

    1.  ALWAYS make a folder on your computer, in an easy to find location, and COPY all files from both FEELTHERE folder
        and your source folder (ex. Steam Folder).  Schedules are in BOTH places and must be updated in BOTH places for it
        to work.  

    2.  Once copied, Navigate to the airfields of BOTH folders.  Delete out your kphl_schedule.txt file, kphl_terminal.txt file, AND 
         klas_gaandlocaltraffic.txt files.  Replace them with the custom files.


    HAPPY CONTROLLING !!!

    (p.s. If any edits need to be made, please comment below -- I respond quickly and make timely updates once the issue is reviewed/tested)

    Joe (or anyone),

    I finally got around to installing your schedule, however my game seems to be hanging at 63% during the loading process.  Any ideas?

    I made copies of the original Terminal and Schedule files and removed them.  I replaced them with copies of yours.  I do not have the Notes file in there.

    Are you sure you removed the files from BOTH the FEELTHERE and your source folder (i.e. Steam or wherever else you got the game from) are replaced them in BOTH locations?  If you're at 63% that means that the files do not match in both locations.  

  3. What's up everyone!

    My name is Joe.  Thanks for checking out my custom (REAL) traffic schedules.  You can find me at https://www.youtube.com/c/ATControl playing this game.

    Joe.

    Do you have any statistics as to the number of arrivals and departures by hour?

    Tom

    Not handy and here's why.....The game loads somewhere near 5-6 hours worth of flights no matter what hour to start on.  Because of this....you get every gate filled with an aircraft and have to depart a few aircraft before arrivals will start to flow (it's like that "no gate error" some people see).  It's no big deal, but the issue is, that because the game loads so many airplanes wanting to depart that it pushes back a lot of arrivals (not hours behind but usually like 20 min or so), so its tough to say how many ACTUAL flights get moved in an hour span.  Someone did a test on this concept the other day, check the "Arrival Volume" post.  If you're looking for the numbers of what I actually coded in per hour, I could probably get the figures. May take some time though.  LAX is busy most of the day haha.  I don't think you'll find any hour (unless it's the wee hours of the morning) to be lacking in traffic.

    @Avwriter, I'm a long time flightsim tinkerer, all the way from FS1 and BAO Tower.. so a bit of reading and tinkering is really no problem. ;)

    I can live without 4K. Seems I finally have a reason to upgrade to Win10 than. heh  Now to tell the wife..

    Btw @ATControl, if you don't mind: Are you the same person from the ATControl youtube channel? While watching those vids (and enjoying it greatly!) it's the first time I noticed both male and female pilot voices during a single setting. Am I assuming correctly this is a setting within Tower 3d Pro itself and that's what you mean with "random in the game"?

     

    Thanks for the replies guys, it's appreciated!

    Gert

    Yeah I'm the one on YT.  Yes, multiple voices via settings in game.

    I'd be happy to post them there and provide the link if that helps. In the meantime I have posted them on my Dropbox account -- if that is a problem let me know and I will take them down. The link is https://www.dropbox.com/s/j9vq6tt6e8omwq8/LAX Changes.zip?dl=0 BTW, this has the 9/27 modification in it.

    Prefer you take it down as it's not your work.  I will post it when I'm ready

  7. I think someone else posted about this, but likely not going to get fixed along with a boatload of other issues already sitting at this airport (cargo areas, no GA, missing taxiways, etc).

    Only way to get around this now is to remember to issue them to 24L or R, and then once they've pushed taxi them to 25R or L depending on which one you want to use.  You're not locked into a runway until you give a takeoff command.  It's sad to have to do it this way, but it's all we're going to get for now.

  8. Anyone who picked up the custom LAX traffic from me, a new message should be waiting for you with the updated files, re-written as of 9/25/17 with key changes for smoother gameplay, terminal change for 1 airline and additional flights that could now be added with a new livery that was put in.

    Let me know if you want the files if you are seeing this for the first time (send me a direct message) or let me know if you need the updated files still.

    Hi Joe,

    We didn't change anything. Does it happen at Atlanta only?

     

    Vic

     

    Happens at all airports.  Been happening since the recent update.  After installed, went back and unloaded the entire game, downloaded all Real color and real traffic files for all airports, still grey at all airports. 

    **PS I have zero custom files and/or adjustments in any folder at this time.  Everything downloaded was a clean install to get original files in place 

  10. Vic, 

    Whats going on with the ADIRS change making it grey and the lettering of taxiways so light that it is tough to read?  If you have the ADIRS hovering anywhere over concrete it furthers the issue b/c the AIDRS is now semi-transparent and makes it even more difficult to read.  How about putting it back?
