NEED v10 AI aircraft TESTERS

[Morten XPFW]

Hi guy's..

I need you to try something for me

Below is a file containing a collection of older XPFW aircraft (15 types to be exact).

These aircraft I have upgraded to v10. Further I have removed all non-essential files, panels, sounds,

and other stuff so that the aircraft should be is gentle as possible to your hardware. Left is only

the basic exterior and flightmodel.

The hope is that more people will be able to enjoy AI traffic in v10 and that these aircraft can get a new life.

So, what I want you to do is check if these aircraft will give you better framerates than the default ones (in AI)

1. Unzip the file

2. Place the folder in the aircraft folder

3. Open the v10 sim

4. Goto Aircraft/Aircraft & Situations

5. Click on the tab "Other aircraft"

6. Add/replace the default aircraft with these.

7. Click on the "save all aircraft in preferences" radio button

DONE

Experiment and see if you think it gives you better framerates than the default AI aircraft.

Lets see some screenshots of busy airports

I'm on it rightaway !

[Xflyboy]

I'll give them a go as well!

[Morten XPFW]

Someone at XPFW said he now could have 12 AI aircraft instead of 4 earlier.. ! Anyone getting similar results?

[Xflyboy]

I just tried with 6 and 2 default only dropped 3 fps, but I have room for the drop, so far so good.

Now we need some GA aircraft!

Well done, thanks.

[Morten XPFW]

Ok thanks, I'm also tailoring the "AI flightmodel" a bit to match the "AI logic" a bit better.

Default - 4 AI aircrafts - 20 fps

XPFW - 4 AI aircrafts - 24 fps

[Morten XPFW]

20% increase.. pretty good I think I can shave them off a bit more as well

[Morten XPFW]

Ok, you got to try this;

http://www.ixeg.net/files/XPFWAI.zip

It's 3 highly modified B747-400's. (only livery is different)

Add a bunch, like 10-15 of them as AI aircraft.

Then try with the same situation with the same amount of the default 747 United aircraft.

Personally I get about DOUBLE the framrate sitting on the rwy at KSEA on my iMac (i5),

but I guess that depends on alot of factors...

Let me know how it goes..

Cheers,

Morten

The first link is dead. Are you aware of that? Downloaded the second one now. Will test asap.

[OlaHaldor]

It runs very smooth indeed! Added 10 of them, and I lost only 3-4 fps vs. no AI at all. Wow! GA is very welcome to a AI pack!

I find the ATC giving weird commands though. Haha.. I have four 747-400 taxiing all over the place now, even on the smallest taxiways. Weird!

[woweezowee]

they are beautiful; most important to me is they seem to use less memory. I hope such a library grows in the future - I am also one who would like to see some GA done like that.

Great work!

Ok, uploaded a B747 pack with 10 livery's, get it here

Working here.

Morten, could you upload this file to x-plane.org or megaupload or some other site than XPFW? For some reason I cannot access this website in my house internet.

[Morten XPFW]

Done
