• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

P3D v5 FTX patch for unwanted traffic on railroads

I'm sure you've already noticed that when using FTX area sceneries in P3D v5.3, as soon as Road Traffic is switched on, Car Traffic is present on all rail tracks. This is not due to Prepar3D. It is rather the case that in the OrbX addons all rail tracks are defined as roads.

Since you can now switch on traffic on all roads in Prepar3D, this then also rolls logically on the rails.

An update can hardly be expected, since OrbX has shifted its customer interests.


Good advice is expensive. After a longer analysis I converted the responsible cvx files into ESRI shapefiles, provided them with a not excluded GUID and recompiled them. This concerns the entire rail networks of the respective countries or parts of countries. Disadvantage , I can only use a uniform GUID, but this is not problematic.
The patch contains the following areas and will be released around tonight.

Europe: FTX GEN , FTX GES, FTX ENG,FTX WLS, FTX SCO, FTX IRL, FTX NIR
Norway I can't offer a solution at the moment, because the developer here didn't separate roads and railroads at all, but everything is defined as roads in one file.

Oceania: FTX NZNI and FTX NZSI
The same applies to Australia v2 as to Norway.


America: FTX CRM, FTX NCA, FTX NRM, FTX PNW
The same applies to the missing areas as to Norway.

Here is a small before and after video The patch is available, later today
