Result

Usage

1. Download and install Blue Mirror FSX Traffic Generator
2. Blue Mirror FSX Traffic Generator will start automatically after installation. In other cases, select Start -> Programs -> Blue Mirror -> Blue Mirror FSX Traffic Generator to run this tool.
3. In any tool for editing xml files, create a route definition file (with extension RDL), and then save it to disk. Here is a sample route definition file RDL
4. In the Route definitions text box (in Blue Mirror FSX Traffic Generator main window) type the full path to that RDL file or select a button with three dots to select a file using the dialog box.
5. In the Aircraft types text box, type the path to fs10.AircraftTypes.csv file (supplied with MS Flight Simulator X SDK).
6. In the Countries text box, type the path to countries_regions.csv file (supplied with MS Flight Simulator X SDK).
7. In the Airports text box, type the path to fs10.Airports.dat file (supplied with Microsoft Flight Simulator X SDK).
8. In the Custom aircraft schedules, type the path to the result file (for example <Microsoft Flight Simulator X SDK Path>\SDK\Environment Kit\Traffic Toolbox SDK\CustomAircraftSchedules.dat). That file is an output file, so it does not exist before you first run Blue Mirror FSX Traffic Generator.
9. Press Generate!
10. Run TrafficDatabaseBuilder.exe (included in Microsoft Flight Simulator X SDK) with parameters to generate BGL file. For example: TrafficDatabaseBuilder.exe /Airports = fs10.Airports.dat /Schedules = CustomAircraftSchedules.dat /AutoSchedule = No /Output = trafficsmall.bgl /StatsDir = statsmall /AircraftTypes = fs10.AircraftTypes.csv /Countries = countries_regions.csv /log = log.txt /Quiet = No
11. Copy trafficsmall.bgl file to <Microsoft Flight Simulator X Path>\Scenery\World\Scenery
