Live Model Checker is designed to help users of Enhanced Live Traffic (ELT) match their models to Live Traffic.
It checks out live traffic and current landing and take-off runways at any airport independent of a flight simulator.
In addition,it checks if models exists in the community folder.
Live Model Checker & Enhanced Life Traffic
Just locate ELT's logs folder in Options,Settings
Here you van also add non default models, ie A330,737, Embraer etc
Click on a log to show time & details of planes spawned .
Those in RED are the models / liveries which could not be accurately matched and as a result a default model was used , instead.
Purple dones a lack of ICAO ;ELT has to guess, and most often it guesses wrongly.
example
13:09,G81551, A20N, Go First ,Airbus A320-271N, Airbus A320 Neo Air Baltic (Default Model), GOW1551,
The GO First A20N was not found and replaced with an Air Baltic A320 !
06:36,UL533, A332, SriLankan Airlines ,Airbus A330-243, A332EWG (Default Model), ALK533,
Here the default model in IVAO folder A332EWG was used instead.
All model types which haven't been matched are listed separately on the right.
Click on one of them and type and suggested model are displayed.
Click 'Add to Config' to add your new combination to ELT's ModelMatchjing.json file.
Exit Enhanced LIve Traffic then restart for it to incorporate your new 'rule' .
From the top menu Go Reports,ModelConfig File to Add/Delete/Edit.
Live Traffic at Airports
You can change range and height using the Live-Traffic menu options.
Tick 'Show Map' option to see planes plotted in their positions.
Click on a plane to check out altitude,speed & pllane details.
Zoom level cvan be set from 1 to 19 ; the higher the number the smaller the area.
Set height to 3000 (ft) to see in coming and outgoing traffic.
This gives you a good indication of which runway to expect should be landing there
This tells you which runway to expect should you intend to land at the airport - ofcourse
Live Model Checker and AIG Traffic Controller
Live Model Checker shows you the real traffic at an airport which the otherwise excellent AIG Traffic Controller cannot inject as it is flight plan based..
The next version of Live Model Checker makes it easier to check which models have been downloaded via AIG Manager
Check if model exists in community folder
From the main menu , go Aircraft,Compile List.
Click on a Log file to
a) obtain the community folder address
b) obtain titles located in an aircraft.cfg
c) obtain aircraft and liveries found in the ivao folder if found.
Go Aircraft,Search Community Folder.
The data it searches is often abbreviated so:
Search for models or airlines.
To search for 737 liveries search:
B73
or
737
To search for airline, try
Tunis
to show Tunis Air planes
Click on an entry to bring up the necessary folder.
Click on name to locate aircraft.cfg or check out DDS file in texture folder.
Download latest version of Gimp (2.10) to show DDS file
Do not rename ivao file but leave it as:
ivao_x-csl

Hi
The program can be used to check which models are spawned correctly by 'Enhanced Live Traffic' but it can also be used to find out the current live traffic at any MSFS airport or nearby - I've not used vatsim or AIG Manager but if they are using MS so called live traffic then the models you see in Live Model Checker are the ones you expect to see 15 minutes later in the sim.

Is the programme compatible with AIG Manager and Vatsim?
