  2. The sim loads all RCs you have purchased regardless of the airports you have installed or intend to play during a session. So, just like you don't have to buy RC for an airport ... you don't have to buy the airport to use its associated RC. Craig
  3. The runway configuration at KMCO s pretty standard - inner runways for departures (south ops 17R/18L, north ops 35L/36R) and outer runways for arrivals (south ops 17L/18R, north ops 35R/36L). If traffic allows west ramp may depart from 18R or 36L. Again, depending on traffic volume the inner runways may be used for arrivals to reduce taxi time. Typically ground control is split east/west but we don't have that luxury ... yet. :) In my opinion, there are 3 taxiways that require the most attention. Taxiway J is bidirectional, enough said. As best as I can tell, in between the inner runways taxiway E is used for west bound traffic and taxiway F is used for east bound traffic. That's pretty high-level but should get you started. Enjoy!
  4. As suspected, you have an installation issue - airplanes_pack1 and airplanes_pack1.manifest need to be in the Airplanes folder.
  5. What version of RT and RC do you have? I show CCA984 as a 77W in my schedule which is included in RC. Also, looking at your screenshot - even though it is dark - it looks like several of your liveries are messed up. Are you sure everything was installed successfully and in the correct location?
  6. Using Norwegian as an example, RC for KJFK includes the B788 because the RT schedule for KJFK only includes the B788. Assuming Joe's schedule is similar to the custom schedule I created, Norwegian flies both a B788 and B789 into KJFK. I would assume the white planes you are seeing are the B789. FYI - RC for KBOS includes the B789 for NAX.
  7. I think a nice sale would be a good way to stress test the new website. :)
  8. I did something similar for KDFW/Tower!2011 because trying to handle the entire airport with full traffic was pretty much impossible for me. Plus being my "home" airport I wanted it to be realistic instead of north/south though KDFW is split east/west. And I know for a fact that where planes park has little to do with where they depart/arrive (especially during busy periods). I would start with a full custom schedule then split the schedule based on departing/arriving airport as 95%+ of departures to the western airports departed from the west side and vice versa. I did do a little research for departures that were primarily straight north/south. So, if I wanted to just control the west side I knew that I would still have to handle some taxiing on the east side. I'm hoping in the next version FT will add the ability to control more granular positions which would make multiplayer even more fun/realistic. But for those people who prefer single player, maybe add some AI to handle the positions not being controlled by the player.
  9. Gary, I think you are familiar with the challenges I've created for Tower_MP. I used a combination of FlightAware and LiveATC to to determine the exact runway used in real life. It is very time consuming and this is just for a one-to-two hour schedule. It is much easier to build a "normal" custom full day schedule. And if you want to be realistic, you have departures and arrivals on 24L/24R that begin/end on the South side. Not sure how you plan to deal with that, but no matter what it is going to take some effort. Craig
  10. For airports released by FeelThere it does not "ask specifically for the version of T3D". This a feature only Nyerges Design has implemented at this point.
  11. I would hope the next version would bring us into the 21st century from an ADIRS/DBRITE/STRIP perspective. ASDE-X and comparables are a vast improvement overs ADIRS (and they appear to include all kinds of colors) :). The move is to digital strips and I think what we should have something that is much more flexible and sophisticated. The DBRITE is not as a big player in Tower, but for TRACON and ATCC I'm sure there's some modernization that can be implemented also. Agreed - that's why the ask has been made to allow for more than 2 controllers.
  12. @lgvdbroek I appreciate your effort. But I would argue you have not captured "all", but have only scratched the surface of items that have been suggested or could be possible as Tower is taken to the next level.To be honest, @Avwriter's suggestions are not new and have been mentioned before. On more than one occasion, @FeelThere has mentioned they would open up a wishlist topic. To this point they have yet to do so but appear to be adding to a list and listening. I was just trying to get an official comment.
  13. @FeelThere - are we making this the official wishlist topic? I've held off up to this point figuring you would post something official, but when I see statements like "add to the list" or "we're listening" I'm not sure I can keep quiet much longer.
  14. Sadly, the large cargo area was not included in LAX. The only solution is to use the GA area for cargo.
  15. If there are liveries missing from Real Color that are included in Real Traffic then that needs to be brought to the attention of Nyerges Design. If you are wanting to add liveries for custom schedules, that is not an option at this time.
  16. I assume you mean 26 - not 8. In my experience at PHX, 8/26 is used much more for arrivals than departures.
  17. Make sure to run as administrator.
  18. The first departure after midnight is in the 06:00 hour, so that is when the session will start. The terminal assignments appear to correct for EDDM. Gate assignments within a terminal are somewhat random.
  19. That'a good point - in the airport advertising it mentions " ... extensive cargo and maintenance facilities and is fully equipped to handle wide-body aircraft". However, there are no airlines assigned to the cargo terminal. But then LAX is the 4th or 5th busiest in the US and ... oh well, you know the story. At least Munich has the gates - looks like there are 7 cargo spots. Anyone know the active cargo carriers at EDDM? Wikipedia listed a few and I found about 15-20 flights we can add for ABW, BCS, FDX, and VAS. I can create a custom supplement to RT if desired.
  20. I just ran a short session and had no issues with 26L arrivals and issuing TAXI TO RAMP VIA B7 S S8 D3. Possibly a gate (or gates) specific issue or maybe even a bad install? I noticed that you continuously got the following error message. I don't have this error in my log file at all and it looks like we both are running the non-Steam version. Is anyone else seeing this error? NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object at Car.Start () [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 (Filename: Line: -1)
  21. A new post/topic with a complete list would be nice - that would definitely get you a nomination.
  22. Turkish Airlines is in both the LAX and JFK schedules. I'm disappointed you didn't catch it earlier, but then with "Southwest" ringing in your ears all this time it is understandable.
  23. @Braf123456has apparently already blindly trusted the devs several times. Sounds like you are going to blindly trust them too if they say there is no virus. I'm not sure I see any difference.
  24. The installer your local vendor has is for Tower!3D only - I believe it was released in December 2016. The current installer is KJFK_for_Tower3D_4.2a.exe, which was released last month.
  25. Before you click/run it - what is the name of the installer file? I have a feeling you are running an installer for Tower!3D and not Tower!3D Pro. Oh, and a little advice, in the future buy from FeelThere. You'll avoid situations like this.
