  1. It's go time friends! See the original post -- schedule is now LIVE!
  2. What's up everyone, My name is Joe. Thanks for checking out my custom (REAL) traffic schedules. You can find me at ATControl --- YouTube Home playing this game. I have completed my 6th full day custom-schedule release -- featuring Boston Logan International Airport (KBOS). This is being offered for FREE to the community. **Be sure to check out all my prior custom schedules for KLAX ver 1.0, KLAS, KLGA, KPHL & KLAX v2.0! CUSTOM SCHEDULE #6 -- FULL day action from Boston (KBOS) -- Intro 2018. A full day of flights. #*#*#*# It is critical to READ the README file -- This schedule is uniquely built and will not work with certain setups #*#*#*# If you do not have the files at all -OR- need the updated files, you can visit my Dropbox and pick them up. **Please check back for edits to these drop box files. If edits are made, notations will appear below with the date the edit was made and what was changed** ==================================================== Current schedule file -- 2/22/2018 at 11pm EST ==================================================== DROPBOX -- KBOS Custom Traffic Schedule ver 1.0 -- Intro 2018 #*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*# -- GOAL of the custom schedule is to eliminate huge gaps of no traffic at most times of the day. -- GOAL of using REAL WORLD schedule from a set day with complete flight schedule, correct aircraft types, and gates. #*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*# ********************* Features of this Intro 2018 v1.0 Custom (REAL) Schedule : ---Over 1166 Commercial Flights >>> NO MORE MASSIVE GAPS with little to no traffic! This schedule will KEEP YOU BUSY!!!! ---Over 125 General Aviation flights!!! with correct real-life operators and callsigns -- Learn the local/unique schedule of Cape Air - flying the Cessna 402 thoughtout each day ***Please be aware that KAP flights in the schedule WILL include duplicated flight numbers. This is known and how the airline operates -- Plan accordingly for smaller jets and their take-off and landing speeds -- Increased difficulty with a compact airport ---Multiple runways cross each other -- determine the best way to manage traffic and not cause delays -- or accidents! ---Additional entries to include new cargo flights, Westjet Encore (ommitted from original schedule), and further lineups for JetBlue. ***Please be aware that some liveries may not show up on certain models of jets and will appear all white even with Real Traffic ********************* Terminal Re-assignments -- Re-vamp to terminal assigments from those given by the developer -- Relocated Cape Air flights to the GA terminal. Why? Because the airport was designed with only 2 "gates" that handle Cape Air flights. In reality, Cape Air has a set space in front of the tower near Terminal C where 10+ Cessna 402's can be found at any given time. The developer unfortunately did not offer this unique feature at Boston Logan, and the only the way to handle the amount of Cape Air flights is to run it out of the GA terminal. -- Removed all ExecJet flights and replaced at the GA area. This move frees up two more terminal gates where normal airlines make use. Reference info for your GA flight operators =================================== Check the ReadME file for additional info // 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 folder of BOTH tower folders and locate Boston. **** Due to the unique amount of GA & Cape Air flights in BOS, this will NOT be a full schedule plug and play*** **** The only way the full schedule will work on its own, is if you leave the GA traffic OUT*** --- The files have been set up with "Plug n' Play Power Hours" from 600 all the way to 2200 hours. If you play a time outside of 600-2200, the full schedule and GA traffic file will work 1) Before you plug the power hour schedule, be sure you plug in the NEW "kbos_airlines.txt" file that will provide you with new airline names and minor updates. This file is good for my custom work or the developers RT file. Keeping things current! 2) Pick your "Plug n' Play Power Hour" file and be sure to copy ALL 3 files (ga, schedule & terminal) file. 3) Load in and control some traffic! Good Luck! HAPPY CONTROLLING !!!
  3. Slight adjustment made to the arrival side of the LAX schedule file. Pick up the new schedule file on the dropbox. Should be 2/19/18 at 10pm EST as current. Thx.
  4. That's all in the hands of NyergesDesign, I have no control over it. Please pitch it to them directly in the forum.
  5. See the ReadME notes -- Alaska and Virgin America merged. All VRD flights call "Alaksa" now while flying under Virgin America colors. I can't speak for the taxi/runway issues you described. That would be something for a forum post aside form this item which is about a schedule.
  6. Yahtzee! Fixed the issue that was preventing a full 100% loading. Thanks to those that threw suggestions. It led to the fix. Go to the DROPBOX on the original post and pick up the updated schedule file --- should be marked 2/15/2018 at 11am EST ***Also, for those asking about the GA operators you are hearing in game, be sure to read the README file included with your download. All are included in there as they cannot be added to the 'airlines.txt' file. **** Joe -- ATControl on YT
  7. Scott, thanks for the spot on the 9, I’ll correct. Gazza, appreciate the tests. I’ve narrowed it to 11a & noon. Something is causing a hangup but I can’t pinpoint it yet. I’m going line by line and testing. Hopefully will have this fixed today.
  8. Doing some further tests on this morning section of 9am-1pm to see what may be causing the hang-up. Stay tuned -- I'm on it.
  9. Solid catch. I knew that Alaksa/V-America merger would be a problem at some point! I have on-the-fly fixed that duplicate and also 2 other instances where the ASA flight was left in the schedule. Dropbox is updated with the new schedule file inside the zip! Gracias!
  10. Couldn’t agree more and thus why I write copy information on my files. :D. Good news is, I’ve uninstalled and re-installed the game numerous times and files are never really technically lost.
  11. Gazza,thanks for the help. I’m sure many are anxious for your test
  12. Keep an eye on the forum. Waiting for someone non-Steam to shed some light for all of you on this.
  13. Anyone who is getting stuck at 63% you may need to re-download the real traffic again w your original purchase. Not sure if it will fix things but worth a shot. Once re-downloaded replace the files again and check.
  14. I am only on Steam and all traffic works for all hours of the day when I load through there. Not sure about the other sites that offered the game and how files look but it may be how the files need to be set Hopefully someone not on Steam can assist here??
  15. Best part of the new scedule is the cargo and GA. Adds an extra challenge
  16. Good Afternoon all, 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. Happy to announce that I have completed my 5th full day custom-schedule release -- featuring Los Angeles International Airport (KLAX). This is being offered for FREE to the community. **Be sure to check out all my prior custom schedules for KLAX ver 1.0, KLAS, KLGA & KPHL! CUSTOM SCHEDULE #5 -- FULL day action from Los Angeles (KLAX) from January 12, 2018. A full day of flights.

EDIT - 3/3/18 -- Fixed a duplicate ASA/VRD entry that was producing same flight number. Dropbox updated. EDIT - 2/19/18 -- Fixed an incorrect JAL flight on the arrival side that had a matching arrival later in the day. EDIT - 2/15/18 -- Fixed klax_schedule.txt file that was preventing full 100% load. Issue hang was in 11am time slot. Fixed LH place holder (thanks Scott), and cleaned up a few missing commas.

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 folder of BOTH tower folders. Copy all files from the zip file (except the readME file) into the LAX folder. All set! HAPPY CONTROLLING !!!
  17. What update pack? My schedule has nothing to do with the developers real traffic files. It has the same effect as any other schedule out there—if the livery exists from the developer then the plane will have colors. If it doesn’t exist the plane will be white.
  18. You dont' have to buy anything 'extra' for LAX. The reason you're not seeing the liveries is b/c when the developer wrote the 'real traffic' it was ages ago and is completely outdated. Therefore, many of the planes in the custom schedule that ACTUALLY fly into LAX were never created with a livery for the game. This has been brought to the developers attention many times. If liveries are important to you, you can search the airline livery files and verify which model does exist in the game and alter the game files to your liking.
  19. Check the READ ME file that is bundled with each of the traffic updates I do. It has instructions towards the bottom. But to save you some time ....... 1. Always make a backup copy of your game files somewhere on your comp just in case. 2. Inside the "feelthere" or "steam folder" you need to locate the "Airfields" folder which would have all the airports you own. You just need to open the LAX folder and copy the dropbox files into that folder and you're done. Piece of cake.
  20. I'm also getting random errors in the game with planes not spawning into the game --- I built a schedule with 5 departures and 5 arrivals at LAX and only 3 of them spawned on each side. Something is definitely wrong. You shouldn't get "no free terminals" messages at an airport with 50+ gates and only 5 aircraft scheduled to depart. Here is a separate example of PHL with a log -- around 1430 GA aircraft were entering the schedule to arrive and depart. The game never loaded a single GA flight, the GA terminal had no planes populated, however the log shows the game just kept pushing out "no free terminal". GA terminal only had GA on the line, all aircraft in the GA file were verified to exist in the airplane model file. output_log.txt
