V.2.4
HELLO THERE!
A330, A300, A310, A220, Superjet100, ATR72, ATR42, B767 and new Ryanair 737 MAX among others are finally here!
This VRM file is created with the full set of airliners (1300+) where none is skipped. It is meant to be used with vPilot or any other client in VATSIM network (aircraft list at the end of the description).
IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTAT IMPORTANT
YOU NEED AIG BETA INSTALLED (THE MORE AIRLINES YOU INSTALL THE BETTER IT WILL WORK) (40Gb~)
YOU NEED A VATSIM CLIENT (e.g. vPilot)
IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT
VRM file will be updated if any airline icao needs to be fixed or new aircraft is added. Please keep in mind that, sometimes, AIG (BETA) is faulty and doesn't have all the models to let vPilot associate them or an user didn't set correctly its airline icao on vatsim; despite my file being well done. Or you encountered a missing aircraft (eg a340).
Install:
-Drop the .vrm file in your vPIlot folder or any folder where you save your .vrms
-Open vPilot, go to Settings > Model Matching (MSFS) > (+) > Add Custom Rule Set(s)
-Add the file and move it to the top
-Apply / Save
-Reboot vPilot
RECOMENDED: Download FSLTL and isntall their product, you wont regret it. You will find their vrm in the main installation folder. Place it ABOVE mine in case you want to keep both. Also, join their Discord and cheer the guys for that amazing release!
Enjoy your VATSIM flights.

Hello theonlybird.
Is the MD-80 from AIG or ICAO ?
2 years ago
Are you asking about the creator of the MD-80 models? Yes they are AIG models created from AI Aardvark. Which are like 15 years old models... Incredible right?

Well, now I can say it. For several months me among others were testing FSLTL prior release to make sure you guys receive best product that the incredible crew of devs and creators could make. So, I can tell that FSLTL AI models are just top notch. You will even notice how the sound engineering is perfect. Also the effects are spot on. And ofc the models are incredibly well done. Many hours of hard work from the modelers and painters.
So I'll tell you how I set this up.
Ofc the main vrm for me is FSLTL (which you will find in FSLTL installation folder), and below that I set this vrm as a fallback. I can asure you that's the best option. Because atm we don't have the whole world models but new liveries and models are coming. Also FSLTL is more performance friendly.
I will keep updating this vrm from time to time when needed, but is not intended to be every week.

If I do a verify set or even update some of the packs, does it change those edits I have done? I have changed most of them, but after using Traiffc Manager from AIG some of the changes reverted back to the old inputs..I had to redo my edits again
2 years ago
Ok, after expending a few "hours" checking that out... =) It seems to NOT modify any of the edited aircraft.cfg files.
Few conditions:
NEVER updated via Settings > AIGAIM - OCI > VerifySetup you will get a lot of aircraft.cfg files reset.
ALWAYS update via FlightPlans > Online > Updated.
Select the ALL the new updates available -> Enable "Skip manual download" -> Click -OCI-Bulk-
Your files aircraft.cfg modifications wont be reset.
If you go to FlightPlans > Online > Not Installed.
And do the same process, some aircraft.cfg will be modified.
But the reason it's because those are new aircraft model additions or modifications. Not updated. So basically they are new models and will reset the aircraft.cfg. That's the only time that the aircraft.cfg file will be reset.
So, after selecting "Not Installed" and running the OCI-Bulk installation in last update a completely new aircraft (MD88) was added, and ofc its aircraft.cfg is default.
But also a few A300-600 models were added so despite already having this aircraft its modified aircraft.cfg was reset.
Suggestions? When running "Updated", nothing, everything will remain the same for the aircraft.cfg.
When running "Not Installed", note down the aircraft type that are being added, their aircraft.cfg will be reset or created.

Hi
After all this time and many attempts to get it fixed, I finally can say, done with this.
Is´t possible that the "DASH 8=Sata Air Açores" doe´s not have a solution?? No one that has a solution for this? Why are all SATA DASH 8 white? when all the others have their liveries correctly showing?
2 years ago
If I recall correctly you already commented here with that problem. And I told you that could be incompatibility with IVAO or offline AIG Controller. This file is FOR VATSIM NETWORK!
In any case, please, don't comment again about this issue. I already gave you the answer.
I sent you a MD with a little help. That's all I can do, I hope that can give you a little opportunity to solve your problem.
Cheers.

thanks for this huge pack...when I check my vat sim is indicates 2898 models found, but 14 identified. Does that mean it can only model match 14 models only?
2 years ago
No, it seems AIG didn't updated correctly the aircraft.cfg file in the models. That means. Inside C:\\aig-aitraffic-oci-beta\SimObjects\Airplanes In everyone of those folders AIGAIM_FAIB_X there is an aircraft.cfg file that has to be modified. Check the pinned message that refers to the description and new added images.
I can't believe I didn't notice this until now. And incredible is not done correctly by default. Probably AIG is not expecting them to be used ONLINE... So THANK YOU for pointing this out.

Appear to get a few Vpilot errors despite having every airline installed in AIG. Fedex for example is missing the 767ERF models, I only have the 767F models. It therefore presents an error when loading - I cant however see how to install these as they dont come with the AIG manager?

AIGAIM_FedEx Express Boeing 767-300ERF doesnt appear to exist. Interestingly when I look in the AIG its not listed as the model. AIGAIM_FedEx Express Boeing 767-300F does exist and is installed with the AIM but the first one isnt. Where do I get the ERF files from ?

huh? sigh
Well, again, this is a vrm file for vpilot to be used in VATSIM. It’s a text file, not the aircraft models themselves.

I'm looking forward to trying this out! I installed AIG a little while back. Took the time to download every single livery possible for live traffic for use with offline flying. That works amazing, but just needed this missing piece to use it for VATSIM model matching! Thanks for posting this and much respect for your hard work!

Next to the optional rating there is an advice: "please leave this for serious reviews". It looks now that "review" has a new meaning.
Anyway, instead of giving that rating and spit that sort of English. I think it could be more helpful for everyone if you could try to tell us exactly what issue do you have. In a better and understandable English at least. And I could have helped you to troubleshoot your problem. Anyway thank you for the rating. Others can thank you too for the possibility of future next updates.

is there a payware plugin that brings the AIG Traffic to "near live", perhaps a 60 second delay?
2 years ago
In theory if you set MSFS to "Live Traffic" it will automatically use the AIG-oci-data models without doing anything else. The simple fact of having that folder in your community folder is enough. You don't need to use AIG-Controller in order to inject the traffic.
I don't know about its real time accuracy though.
There is a future payware that could work much better than AIG.
Still in development and without a release date. FS Live Traffic Liveries (FSLTL) is suppose to be the best next option.

Still missing the Sata Air Açores from the livery list
At LPPD the Q400 are there but still VERY white... 😊
Any help??
Thank you
2 years ago
About your question referring to the SATA Air Açores (SAT). There are two Dash 8-Q400 (DH8D) models available in the last aig-manager update for that particular airline. It also maintains a subsidiary for mid- and long-haul flights, Azores Airlines (RZO) which have x2 A319, x4 A320 and x6 A21N models available in the last aig-manager update. All of them available in this last vrm update.
So, my suggestions are:
--Check you are using the latest AIG-Manager version available in AIG website if you didn't do it after they changed their servers. If you have a pre-serverschange version it will open but it wont update any of the models no matter how many times you try.
--Mind the icao difference between the subsidiaries. If it's Vatsim, they may be not using the correct one.
--You receive a blank livery, this could happen for several reasons:
1.Model not installed or available. AIG may create the folder and basic files with the model but without the livery itself. This is common since they are in beta and do this to prepare the files structure for next updates. In this case everybody will have the same issue. If you can see the SAT flghtplan listed in AIG-Manager, this is probably the case. (I'll try to spawn in LPPD in the next days and check the Q400 available in vatsim). So if that's the case, be patience, please.
2.vPilot bug selecting the model.
3.Wrong icao

I think the AIG update may have changed file names etc, which means the VMR no longer works for most aircraft, A320 Neos for example seem to be split now as PW and CFM and therefore the VMF doesn't work for them.

I’ve checked for updates the 17th and saw nothing new. I’ll check again tomorrow tho. I don’t know if you’re referring about the last comment posted. Variants are not listed in the aircraft list (description or readme). I consider it background data not needed to be listed. Otherwise we will have to add 100 extra lines of text. I asume everyone understand that obviously all variants are included.
And, if there’s any variant split I automatically add the modification. For instance last big variant split was the b738.
So it’s weird I didn’t see the neo engine variants splitting, but I’ll check again to make sure this vrm is up to date. Thanks for making a note about it and for the rating =)
