Ice Ai Traffic Fsx
Below is a blog post concept that balances nostalgia for the tool with practical advice for modern flight simmers.
Reduce your AI traffic density slider in FSX settings from 100% to 65-70% . Because ICE models are higher fidelity than default, 100% effectively loads 150% of default AI. Use a tool like AI Companion to limit inflight AI to 30 aircraft.
For the best experience, users often rename the default FSX AItraffic.BGL file (located in Scenery/World/Scenery ) to disable generic traffic before installing the mod. ice ai traffic fsx

: Ensure your "Airline Traffic Density" slider in the FSX settings is set to at least 10–20%. If set to 0, no AI will appear regardless of the mod. Use a tool like AI Companion to limit
