  1. Thanks for your analysis Craig,

    When I saw that FeelThereAriel was agreeing with Peabody's conclusion, that started alarm bells ringing in my head.  If only FeelThere would produce an intelligent installer similar to the NyergesDesign products, then this forum would be empty.  (Apart from some rants from a loon in the NW of the USA that is).

    I admit I am no expert on this but the logfile loaded the Janet terminal, wouldn't that indicate he has the new version loaded correctly?

    "Add terminal: Terminal_Janet -  WWW"

     

    @Peabody @FeelThere Ariel     I am not sure that it does.  

    I may be completely wrong but isn't that line triggered by the klas_terminal.txt file which is a result of Real Traffic not T3D?  That line does not convince me that the KLAS @nrholland    is loading is actually the latest version.  Perhaps his/her installation of KLAS_for_Tower3D_SP3 went to the wrong folder and an older version is being used when he/she starts T3D?  We all know that a lot of the posts on this forum are resolved when the correct installation route is explained.

    Where is T3D's forensic detective when you need him?  Time to shine the @crbascott  signal onto some clouds. 🙂

  3. To defend Joe on the KAL liveries, (not that he needs defending as his responses on this forum are sometimes quite 'robust'), he has written before that his schedules are a closer match to real world than the RT version from ND, and if that results in albino traffic so be it. I see his point of view although my personal preference is for full color/colour so I do a little editing.

  4. Pete,

    1.  According to my spreadsheet there is a KAL 772 in the RC KLAX texpack.

    2. I think your second problem is caused by a clash in the schedule.  There are 2 conflicting lines:

    SFO, LAX, 321, VX, 1928, 14:58, 12:00, 1, VX

    SFO, LAX, 320, AS, 1928, 15:36, 12:00, 1, AS

    Because of the data in the airlines file, both flights result in the voice callsign Alaska 1928.  From your log the first one (VX) was handled normally but when you tried to talk to the second one (AS) with the same callsign as the first the game seems to have ignored you possibly because the VX version had reached the terminal. I wonder what would have happened if both were 'airborne' at the same time?

    some of the airlines on their schedule for that airport it is listed as a Max-8 but when I put that into the schedule it will not have a livery on the plane,

    As far as I can tell the only 7M8 liveries in the released library of RC packs are: American Airlines (RC KMCO), WestJet (RC KLAS), and Southwest (RC KSFO & KMCO). For which airlines are you trying to see 7M8s in glorious technicolor?

  6. Hi G,

    I have just checked my spreadsheet of RT liveries and of the 13 airports released so far none of them include "Ryan Scare". I am intrigued as to why that particular airline livery is of interest.

    And Michael O'Leary would probably charge us every time an RYR appeared on our monitors!

    I was just at SeaTac this morning picking up my mom from anchorage and I saw all the plans as I drove up to curb pickup that were at the Alaska gates they all had the new paint livery so that photo you say you took was probably one off of the internet as that It sounds like who ever is doing the updating has gotten lazy and just doesn't want to do the work 

    Welcome back Mike1960/shyguyseattle,

    I see you have failed to follow the plentiful, friendly advice given to you by several members of this forum. How can I make this clearer so that you can understand?

    1. Please accept the viewpoints of other members, particularly when they provide evidence backing their comments.

    2. Please be polite.

    3. Please do not call other members liars, or heavily hint at such an accusation.

    4. Please stop having childish tantrums.

    5. Please enjoy the friendship of this forum and the great advice given by some very knowledgable people.

    6. Please contact the developer privately if you have a major beef with one of their products.

    If you cannot do all of that, please do us all a favor and go and rant elsewhere.

    All the best dude,

    Wayne

    Well post a new comment every time something is released/updated explaining what has been updt/rlsd and delete the previous post each time. Thank you for all your great ideas. We´ll delete Sky King´s post later 🙂

    Ariel,

    Perhaps the post announcing an update could list the changes?  Other products call these 'version notes' which are very helpful to the user community.

  9. Thanks to all. This is one of the most entertaining threads for a long time!

    I remember early in my career receiving guidance to “keep emotion out of any argument otherwise you may lose even if you are correct” and “if you go to print with poor spelling and bad grammar your credibility will be in tatters and so will be your argument”. Wise words.

    Mike1960,

    I agree with your view that it would be great if Nyerges Design would update liveries in the RC add-ons, not just Alaska but other airlines as well. To be fair to Gabor at ND, liveries are being updated, but perhaps not quite as fast as we enthusiasts would like, but bear in mind that across the RC packs there are 441 separate aircraft model / livery combinations. Each time a new airport is released ND have a RC pack ready to go on day 1; when EDDM was released there were 77 brand new aircraft/liveries not seen before. With EDDS, a Canadian and an Australian airport in the near future for the T3D world perhaps ND are busy with higher priorities? I don’t know if ND is a large software company or Gabor is a teenager making liveries in his bedroom after school, but I do know that their add-ons make the T3D experience significantly richer.

    May I suggest you email ND with a polite request to update the Alaskan liveries? @crbascott and @hexzed are 2 of the most knowledgeable and helpful members of this forum. They deserve praise not a rant.

    I did wonder about your unhinged hatred of Airbus until you mentioned where you live. ‘Buy local’ is a great mantra by which to live, have you bought a Boeing? 

    All the best Mike, I too look forward to all liveries in T3D being accurate but patience is a virtue.

    Wayne

    Seconds out! Ding! Ding! Round 2!
