Installing World of AI

Having trouble installing World of AI? This tutorial will help you out.

All images can be enlarged by clicking them, they will open in a new tab.

 

Step 1: Getting the installer and world-of-ai downloader

You can get the World of AI installer from http://www.world-of-ai.com/allpackages.php, click the AVSIM link on the right. I suggest using AVSIM as we will also be using AVSIM to download the models.

The world-of-ai downloader can be found here: https://forums.vatsim.net/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=68666, on the bottom of the post there is a link to the download. My antivirus marked it as a virus, it isn’t so you can just add it to the whitelist.

If you have slow internet, I suggest you download the Passengers Airlines and Cargo Airlines packages first. You can download and install the other ones later.
