    there is one question though that I have about these retro airlines and livery when we make a schedule with them how do put the airline at the terminal that they would have originally been at the airport we are using that airline like for instance what terminal was eastern in when they were at KJFK?

    Here ya go. Three minutes of duckduckgo (it would have been less than one minute but I had to let the dog out)

    https://www.airliners.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=219397

    The entire thread is quite interesting. but for those that suffer from TL;DR, I believe the original Terminal 1 is the terminal you're looking for.

    Post #12 is very informative.

  2. Hi everyone

    Something I always wanted whilst playing was a departure and arrival board for the airport I was controlling at, for the hour I had selected.

    So I've set about doing this for myself and anyone else that would like to have the departures and arrivals listed.

    For my test, I made use of @bcooley66's recent KLAX schedule because he already had a spreadsheet available and it was easy to separate departures and arrivals.

    My end goal is to make it available for all airports currently available for T3D using the default schedules and then also to somehow allow members to upload their own schedules to the website.

    Here is my very first iteration, which I shall call v0.01. It has only departures currently and my next task is:
    * have flights listed per hour instead of all them on one page

    Here is the temporary URL so that you can have a look.

    This is a real world schedule for KLAX that took place on February 20, 2020, according to Flightradar24 website. I have also added additional flights, in order to increase the fun and realism for the day.

    To use this schedule, I have attached the text files that you will need. You will need to be put these files in your main Extensions\Airfields\KLAX sub directory for Tower3d Pro. Before you insert these files and overwrite your existing files, it is highly recommended that you make a backup of your existing text files first, using the following example. klax_schedule.bak.txt. This way, you won't lose your original files, in case you want them back. Once you have renamed these files, you can just drag the attached files into your sub directory. I've also attached the Excel spreadsheet that I used in order to create the custom schedule for your enjoyment.

    Also, if you want all of the Real Color Airlines to show up and to not just have white airplanes, this custom schedule schedule uses aircraft from the following Real Color Add On's in the schedule. You may or may not have all of these purchased. You only need to purchase the Real Color Add On's and not the airports, for the aircraft to show up. TIST, KPHL, KLAX, KJFK, KSAN, KATL, KPHX, EDDM, KMCO, KMEM, LFPG, KRDU, RJTT. 

    I have done extensive testing for weeks on this schedule, making tweaks and adjustments where needed, and everything seems to be working as advertised.

    The attached schedule file covers the times from 12:00a until 23:59p. there are 894 Arrivals, and 891 Departures

    This is an extremely impressive effort. Thank you for all your work. The spreadsheet you attached reveals just how much time you put into this.

    I'm going to give it a try shortly and I'll definitely NOT be going anywhere near 8 am!!!!

    Thanks again!

  4. Okay...well a few things...although I'm appalled at your ping times. I would have expected +-150 ms - not over 240 ms

    1. Hop #2 ( 95.218.160.1) is your ISP

    2. You appear to be getting NAT'ed from there on until you reach hop #11

    3. All the hostnames from hop #6-18 do not resolve to IP addresses, which is odd. (security by obfuscation or extremely strict Access Control Lists?)

    4. Hop #8 (prs-bb4-link.telia.net) is extremely odd. This is where I suspect things went awry.

    5. Hop #11 (192.205.33.25) is where you are handed off from telia.net (Swedish Telecoms company), to AT&T and you use them all the way to your destination IP address in California.

    In conclusion, I'm somewhat baffled by what I mentioned in points 2, 3 & 4 above.

    The root cause of your troubles with Tower!3DPro could be due to the way Feel There implements their multiplayer code.

    Something along that route (inside telia.net) is breaking their method of implementing multiplayer (which I suspect is some form of openVPN), and your friends traceroute tends to bear that out.

    Thank you for indulging me, and I'm sorry we weren't able to solve it.

  5. Okay so my theory was disproved 🙂

    How do you get Internet access where you are currently living?

    Try the game again please, except this time instead of running a ping, download and install WinMTR from SourceForge:
    https://sourceforge.net/projects/winmtr/

    It's very straightforward to use and the beauty of this tool is that it will allow you to see, when you lose connection, where the traceroute dies.

    Do that when you are running the next game...and report back the IP address where it dies.

    (MTR = My TraceRoute)

    Help from other members would be nice but lets' hear from the developer.

    I know I'm just a member but as a networking engineer, I find your issue interesting and I have a theory which I'd like you to disprove 🙂

    Assuming you both know each others public IP address, I'd like to see whether you get disconnected if you do this while playing MP:
    Open a command prompt, type in ping -t 12.34.56.78 where 12.34.56.78 is your friend's public IP address. The -t flag in the ping command will continue pinging until you press CTRL-C. Let him do the same, using your IP address.

    Keep the ping running continually until you have completed.

    EDIT 2: It would be even better if you both had at least 2 monitors, so that the command prompt window could stay open on one of them...let me know if you getting kicked off coincides with either of your pings failing.

    Of course, first prize would be that you don't get kicked off at all.

    If that's the OFFICIAL process moving forward - I would suggest the first post be updated with a current list of airports. There's been a few airports released and quite a few bugs reported in other threads since "the area designated for that" was created.  

    I've just updated the list Craig, thanks. Real life got in the way.

    Good day,
    I have a question about true color.
    I have real traffic and real colors (CDG), I want to buy other true colors at LAX, when I will buy . I will just need to reinstall real traffic or reinstall both real traffic and real color mod

    Hi Zatris

    1. Download & install Real Color for LAX
    2. Download latest version of Real Traffic
    3. Install latest version of Real Traffic (Real Traffic for Tower 3D/Pro: RT_Tower3D_PRO_sp6v19.exe)
    4. Make sure you save all download links and codes in case you need them again
    5. Make sure in points 1,2,3 that you install to the correct directory on your PC

    This link has the latest versions:

    Regards,

    BLB (Peter)
