Traffic Expansion for MS Flight Simulator X Reviews
i bought traffic this spring and I like it. Also did a traffic alert as I was coming into the pattern about a United 747 at my altitude and closing on my airspace and then hearing the controller vectoring the aircraft away from my flight was superb. Flying into O Hare at night with other traffic merging onto final and listining to ATC givimg everyone instruction w/o fail was awesome. The only problem I had is that it stiil is using ms FSX generic ATC voices thought it would have different voices. I had no problems getting it load and the detail is great. cant wait to see the new FSX version that comes out in September overall a good buy.
I will be returning mine. After doing a couple of hours of research to find out why, I find out you have to go to the companies site and download some updates and then you may possibly have to reinstall FSX. So unless you want to deal with all that crap, stay away from this product. Although this product seemed to install correctly, I'm not seeing any traffic. And if that doesn't work you may have to reformat your computer and reinstall everything.
The aircraft models are really good and Spotty the spotter (duff name guys) is a great idea. At thirty bucks it's good value and - as they say on the box - it really is as busy as it gets. But, if you want to stop your sim airports looking like the Nevada Desert on a Sunday, then this baby is the one.
If you get worried by installers then you probably live in a house with tinfoil on the windows and drink boiled water. However, you need to be careful you don't turn the traffic density up too high unless you have a decent PC, but otherwise I would say it's pretty cool. Installation is a snap and it's got loads of different tools.
When compared to the competition around from other AI traffic programs, this one is clearly streets ahead. Odd to see a reviewer saying that the protection software is a virus. These guys are the largest flight sim company next to Microsoft and Traffic is a peach.
If you like tweaking and fiddling then it's a world beater.
Their models are a joke. The user interface is SO obviously visual basic version 5; or sure looks like it. I will admit I didnt get past KLAX airport, but it was enough to convince me I had been robbed of $30 and had a virus installed for my trouble. After spending large sums of money on hardware to get the great graphics of FS-X this was a real let down. If I were a software pirate, I wouldnt steal this.
Aircraft parking spaces often are inside terminal buildings and all those great jetways that we waited 10 versions of FS to get. Definatly not worth the security risk, and I have news for this publisher, the add-on itsself isnt worth copy protecting. (Which will open ring-0 admin access to ANY program). Beyond that, the program looks like something out of FS4 or FS5.
This add-on for FS is definatly NOT worth $30. are gone. Worse, it should have a big red warning label on it's Amazon page that it will (without asking your permission) modify WINDOWS system files and the registry to install a disk driver for the Safedisc copy protection.
tearing this POS out tonight. I dont know how well it works in FS2004 but in FS-X their "redesigned" airport layouts are very poorly done.
This is a great add-on by a company known for making great products for Flight Simulator.
And not just the standard run-of-the-mill liveries - some airlines have special paint jobs.
The program replaces the default AI traffic (Orbit, Landmark, and other fictional airlines) with real-world aviation traffic.
The program contains a number of extra goodies as well, including the ability to drive around an airport in a ground vehicle, and the ability to view airport traffic from a virtual control tower.
For example, at Sky Harbor, I recently observed the America West Phoenix Suns plane.
I thoroughly enjoy Traffic.
And at San Francisco International, I recently saw a Disneyland-ified plane (not sure which airline it was for).
Plus, there's tons of general aviation flights.
You won't be disappointed.
