Manual Installation (Tutorial) - unoffical

[airernie]

Thanks,
Here is the "Unofficial AIG AI Manager Manual Install Tutorial" in PDF format. 

P3Dv4 Users:  Manual installs as described in this supplement are incompatible with OCI because AIG-OCI-SimObjects are not visible during manual installation.   There is a thread at https://www.alpha-india.net/forums/index.php?topic=30142.0 which discusses what needs to be done.

revision 27 Nov 2019

• added note regarding fix for unused repaint
• as of this revision, no updates will be made unless a modification to AI-Manager materially affects the contents.

I have splited the topic and made the post with the tutorial sticky

[airernie]

I found a missing 'Not' in the Important to Know section plus made a few minor changes.

The 6 Jun 2019 version and later contain the corrections.

Thanks,
Ernie

Thanks for your fast reply. I am sorry i didnt noticed that. I am brand new to the AI side of the sim.  It seems that i have managed to load a flight schedule with the appropriate AI planes but i cant find any way to load it into the sim. How can i inject the whole thing? Thanks again for your time! Its highly appreciated

I'm using P3Dv4.5 and I'm trying to manual install just the updated AI Malcontent ERJ's. The download turns green and I click install and nothing happens.

Manual installation does not install any models. Automatic model installation is only available through OCI.

Just tried to set up OCI and is said  "Your OCI-Setup is corrupted, AIGAIM has deleted the addon.cfg entry!" I use Ultimate Traffic Live and not the AIG Flight Plans.

Can you pls describe step by step what you did and when the message appeared?

I got it solved, thanks.

Anyone able to help!?  I'm using FSX:SE and on the Manual Installation, the Modelfolder shows blank (.mdl).   However, in settings if I change the version to FSX, on the manual installation pop up window it shows the correct modelfolder for the aircraft to be installed within.  When I load up FSX:SE, 9/10 aircraft are not appearing, or if they do, they aircraft are going crazy (spinning frantically!) 

Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated!

Sorry, I thought that I might have an answer to the first part of your question, but my tests didn't prove it out, so Kaiii3 or sharklet_A319 will need to respond on this one.

I will echo this same situation. Didn't see any aircraft models available under the Modelfolder dropdown window so I changed from FSX:SE to FSX in the manager and suddenly all my AI models I had manually installed in the SimObjects folder showed up. Installed a few models/liveries per the unofficial guide and the flightplan .bgl loaded fine into the /scenery folder. Load up FSX and every combination of disabling ORBX, default FSX traffic, results in zero AIG traffic (maybe the 9/10 but I havent see anything sitting here at KORD with American and United flightplans loaded)..
