Folks,
I hope I have this posted in the right place. I would like to ask the FSX Traffic Designers on here to consider making some AI Airship traffic for FSX. From the giant Zeppelins of yesteryear to the Blimps of today. I would like to see them in FSX when I fly. The screen below is of the pilotable USS Macon. It would appear at least on the onset that AI Airships can be accomplished. Can it be done???....or is the task to difficult?

Cheers..LE151

It can be done; just takes a little work. Here is the AI version of the Macon on a simple flight path back and forth in front of Catalina Island. My Douglas O-46 is taking a close look. I used AIcarriers and TTools to set up the Macon as AI and generate the traffic .bgl respectively. I "think" the Macon is the only airship or blimp that can be easily converted to AI. I would be glad to be proved wrong on this.

Best, Paul

Thanks Paul and Seawing,
Looks like I got more work cut out for me. I need to learn how to use these AI traffic compilers. I would imagine it's like a lot of FSX apps.....once you've used them enough times you could probably compile an AI Traffic file in a matter of minutes. Thanks again!!!
