Subtle Taxi Ribbon:

This mod will change your Taxi Ribbon to make it into smaller orbs that is animated to show the direction of your taxiing. This mod is based on Cygnific's Animated Taxi Ribbon mod which I have modified to be recolored green to blend well with the taxiway centrelights. This mod will make the taxi ribbon less obtrusive and more immersive when using it.

Known Issues:

At the moment, using just the new version might make the blue/green parking box at the end to appear again. The current workaround is to still install the old version with any size that you want to the official folder. Then also install the new version to the community folder. That way, the old version will still make the parking box invisible, while the taxi ribbon itself will be overridden by the new version in the community folder. This is a temporary workaround until Cygnific and I can find a way to make the parking box integrated to the community folder mod and make it invisible again.

Installation:

Download the previous version 1.25.7.0 of this mod.
Choose the taxi ribbon size that you want, open that folder, and extract the fs-base folder to your Official Folder location, making sure you replace the existing file.
Download the main file version 8.0 of this mod.
Extract the downloaded subtle-taxi-ribbon folder to your community folder.

Uninstallation:

Delete the subtle-taxi-ribbon folder from your community folder.
Open the Backup folder from the version 1.25.7.0 of this mod and extract the fs-base folder to your official folder location, making sure you replace the existing file.

Alternative Taxi Ribbon mod:

If you prefer to retain the parking box, I recommend you check out RXP Small Taxi Helpers 3D-VR mod by CptLucky that modifies the parking box to look like painted lines on the apron while also making the taxi ribbon smaller and more immersive.

Thank you for this! If MSFS gates matched the real world I'd find them myself but this helps tremendously. I simply installed V8 as is and have mapped taxi ribbon toggle to my joystick and turn it off when your addon has led me there 😊

Just noticed how far these Updates have came along but I still use v1.25.7.0 as my preferred as it keeps the Blue Box and the size and colour are ok as TINY+. I think it better you include all methods as Options as this is actual a very different style. So not an update but another style whilst again your other DEV is working on the static pulsating orbs.

NeoKingArthur 2 month(s) ago

Répondre

Sure, I'll just rename the downloaded as a different style. (btw. You can still use both, use the old version for the invisible parking box, and the animated orbs to replace the arrows). But that's the reason why I still keep the old one as is. I have a few ideas for improvement of the orbs, such as making the orbs static, but they pulse with different lighting colours (such as yellow) that blinks from one orb to another, creating an illusion of direction guidance as if the taxiway centerlights cycles between green and yellow lights in order to tell you which direction to go.

But it will take some time if that comes to pass. In the meantime, the choice is there, it's up to you to choose which one.

I'm actually a huge fan of the animation. Going from the large blue to the smaller green has made them more discrete, but a lot easier to follow than the arrows on my regular size desktop monitor. A huge step in the right direction, and so much better than those God awful huge arrows that come stock with the sim.

Thanks to both of you for making this happen.

Translation: "Hey, I can only see the points up to a maximum of two meters and from there they disappear. Is there a solution?‎"

Cygnific has planned for an update to extend the draw distance of the orbs. Once they have updated it, I'll update this mod with it as well. Stay tuned for any updates.

Why the animation and a circle? Can I turn the animation off? I prefer the small arrows, without animation, please.

NeoKingArthur 2 month(s) ago

Répondre

The purpose of the orbs is so that it can act like taxiway centerlights compared to arrows which doesn't really blend well. The animation was made by Cygnific just to try the capability of the sim and to indicate the direction of your travel. I believe they're exploring some other ways to make the orbs static, but using a pulsing pattern of On and Off light orbs that can indicate the direction. But at the moment, this is the animation that we have right now.

If you don't like the new orbs style, you can just download the old version that replaces the official Asobo taxi ribbon file without installing the new version in the community folder. I deliberately left the old version available for this exact reason.

when I choose let's say 25% and under this folder there are many subfolders which folder do I need to copy to the community folder? is it the fs-base? thank you

NeoKingArthur 2 month(s) ago

Répondre

The fs-base is copied to your Official folder. This is the older version where we can't make it into a community mod yet. So if you are using the old arrow-style with the invisible parking box. When you pick the 25%, open it. And extract the fs-base folder to your Official folder. When you pick the correct folder, It will ask you to replace one file, replace it and that should work for you.

willynanita 2 month(s) ago

Répondre

Sorry, but the new circles and the animation is a immersion breaker. I tried it, but I will keep using the older version. Could you, maybe, make different versions of the mod? Let the user choose...

NeoKingArthur 2 month(s) ago

Répondre

I've already done so. When you download this mod, it already give you a choice. You want the new version or the old one. If you prefer the old one, it's still there. I never took that choice away. The Orbs are still WIP, btw. Just to test the waters to see how people react and their feedback. I have other ideas to make the orb more immersive and less immersive breaking (IE, the green orbs are static in position, but they blink with yellow orbs in a pulsing manner with the orbs in front of it, creating the illusion that the taxi lights are pulsing with a different color to indicate the direction you're suppose to go). But like I said, it's still a WIP and not sure whether that would be possible or not.

When you click Download 8.0 in this page, it will show you an option between the main file 8.0 and the older version 1.25.7.0, pick the older version and you'll download that package.

Hi I have updated the mod and it works fine and the automated green orbs are much easier to see. Is the no way to make them smaller? I have the old mod still installed and selected 10% but the green obs remain the same size?

NeoKingArthur 2 month(s) ago

Répondre

Hi, thanks for the feedback. The size won't be affected by the old version sizes.. But I'll see what I can do to scale them down a little smaller. The next updates will be on size adjustments.

NeoKingArthur 2 month(s) ago

Répondre

Okay, I've updated the mod with a smaller size. I can't make it into a different version due to the limitation. But if you redownload and install the mod again, it should be using the new updated version 8.1 with a smaller orb size. Check in your content manager to see if the mod version has changed to 8.1. Let me know what you think.

To Neo4316

There is a simpler way to pack the mod. I mean pack it as a normal mod in Community folder.

What you need to do is this:

Create a folder with the name of your mod or mod variant... for example I have done one called: "Subtle Taxi Ribbon simple medium"
Inside you need to have one folder and 2 files: "scenery" (folder) - layout.json and manifest.json
In the "scenery" folder make a folder called: "Global". Inside this one make a folder called "Asobo_UI" (you know... the path to the file)
Inside "Asobo_UI" folder put your modified file: Asobo_UI.BGL
Go back to first folder and have a usual manifest file but edit it to look something similar/inspired by this:

{

"dependencies": [],

"content_type": "CORE",

"title": "",

"manufacturer": "",

"creator": "Asobo Studio - Subtle Taxi Ribbon",

"package_version": "0.3.00",

"minimum_game_version": "1.9.3",

"release_notes": {

"neutral": {

"LastUpdate": "",

"OlderHistory": ""

}

"total_package_size": "00000000000000013398"

}

6. Likewise you need to edit the layout.json and this one is tricky. If you do it with auto_json.exe it will list normally but not offer you to save. You can simply copy the offered text and then use it to manually create the json file in notepad++ etc.

for the blue - green variant in my case it looks like this:

{

"content": [

{

"path": "scenery/Global/Asobo_UI/Asobo_UI.BGL",

"size": 416492,

"date": 1629473448705

}

]

}

I think the size is important or something .

After that the mod is complete. Install it in community folder like usual with Addon Linker etc.

Thank you for this, I appreciate it. I remember I did try to make a community based mod for this, but I thought I have everything setup correctly (with the layout and manifest.json file setup) but it just won't work for some reason. Maybe I did miss a few things then, and thank you for showing me the great detail on it. I'll try to redo the mod and use your guide. I use the LayoutJSON generator tool for it. I use it so many times with my liveries structure successfully, so I hope it still works here as well. I'll give this a go and if it's successful, I'll be sure to give you credit for it. Thanks again.

I tried it... The content loaded properly, but the taxi ribbon is still showing the default blue big one. Did you manage to get it working yourself with your method?

I did but without consistency it seems. Yesterday I was switching between mods variants and I blamed the inconsistency on some possible errors in the mod structure but today I had only failures it seems. I will retest.

NeoKingArthur 3 month(s) ago

Maybe it's because you use addon linker? I don't use anything. I just put everything in the community folder and MSFS just loads the entire thing. Hmm... Let me see if I can play around with the content.xml

It should make any difference but something is really odd. Most of the times the mod doesn't load actually or first flight it doesn't seem to load. And sometimes it loads just fine. But today I had a really perplexing testing flight. At the start of the flight it worked and after landing it didn't... like WTF? Clearly something is there but not quite. I am thinking that maybe it needs a helping file or something. Maybe that file works in pair with something else?

here is a pic from taxing for take off:

And here after landing:
