P2A v.3.0.0.0_RC2 and previous versions.

Thanks

Thanks,

Jeff

I'm currently using X-Plane version 12.4.1, and the XUIPC plugin isn't working correctly with this version (X-Plane crashes).

I'm considering purchasing Pilot2ATC version 3.

Could you please tell me if XUIPC is necessary, or how to install version 3? Thank you.

Sincerely.

IFR flight plan, set up the departure and destination, from the destination airport in the fight planner, I click in, select Approaches, and choose ILS X in this case, and Load it up, I can see the waypoints and the fix I'm supposed to fly towards to start the approach. Cool. Validate, File, ready to go.

In the sim, MSFS2020, I'm using the 208 with the Garmin to set up the flight plan; I do that as normal. Select Approach, I choose the same ILS X, I choose Vectors, and hit Load. It all seems to be fine. Radio for clearance, and up I go.

Then it breaks down. P2ATC starts giving me vectors but they don't match the GPS plan. I have to choose to either fly manually as directed by P2ATC, or keep the Autopilot on the GPS route as planned. P2ATC got very cranky when I choose the latter 😄 but to me the directions on the GPS made more sense than where the ATC was taking me. Even the magenta line on the P2ATC map was closer to the GPS directions than the ATC headings. 

To make matters worse, I was using Co-Pilot Auto responds, so I ended up in an audio loop, ATC giving the same command and my co-pilot reading it back, over and over and over, even when I tried to tell it to cancel IFR, or give it a different command. I wouldn't stop looping until I hit the connect button to disconnect it from MSFS (and I just continued the rest of the flight using the in-game route).

I tried a few more times but I could not get P2ATC to sync the ILS approach with the ones installed in the Garmin in the sim. I ended up just filing VFR plans in P2ATC and using the ILS approaches from the Garmin with "Visual Straight In" options on P2ATC. 

Thoughts?

I have MSFS2024 and would like to have a ATC programme that works over a network.

1/   My understanding is I can install Pilot2atc on a separate computer connected to the same network.  I will need to have FSCUIP 7 (free version) on the flight sim computer and widefs7 ( pay-were version? I think its called that) on the network PC.   Basically, nothing new to install on the msfs2024 pc but  Widefs7 and Pilot2atc on the network pc.

2/ The reason I want to install pilot2atc over the network is so that my flight sim screen is not cluttered.  

3/ I don’t feel I want to use the microphone and voice recognition at present.  I feel I would like to use the mouse and or keyboard on the second PC to work Pilot2atc.  Is this feasible?  

4/ I use Air manager on the second PC so I guess my network is working fine.

5/ Is there any thing else I need to be aware of?

Thanks in advance if you can help.

Best wishes.

• Fixes several Copilot speech recognition issues.
• Improves Arrival display in certain scenarios.
• Fixes issues with missing transfers to next controller.
• Fixes a few other bugs.

thanks

- P2A does not send ATIS nor receives radio commands if the ERJ is powered by the GPU. It works if powered by APU or Generators.

- P2A does not get radar contact if the transponder in TA/RA mode, it however does in other transponder modes.

- P2A sees me at other altitude than what the ERJ altimeter is showing and keeps asking me to descend to the SID restriction.

I repeated the same flight with the Zibo and P2A worked fine. It seems the ERJ is not writing the expected information to the datarefs that P2A uses. But without know which datarefs are those, I don’t know what to ask x-craft.

What’s the best way to get the two developers to align?

Thanks

Can you please implement a button and/or key assigment possibility for switching between COM 1 and COM 2?
Often P2A switches from COM1 to COM2 and I do loose the communication.
Then I have to open P2A manually and switch back to COM1.

Once I installed P2A, the PWS 155 and the ipad running IFD Trainer XP will control the radios in P2A, but the PWS 155 will not show the frequencies.  The Transponder will control the transponder in P2A, but same thing, no display.  I have not tested the autopilot, but it appears the same, no display.

I would like to use these devices for a more realistic simulator to build "muscle memory" and use P2A to strengthen the IFR experience, with less interaction with it requiring a mouse, touch, etc.  I understand there will be some learning and getting used to P2A.

Can someone please assist with this?  The great and wonderful OZ, I mean MS Copilot tells me that I need to tell P2A to:

•     Use X‑Plane COM Frequencies
•     Use X‑Plane NAV Frequencies
•     Use X‑Plane Transponder
•     Use X‑Plane Audio Panel
•     Use X‑Plane Autopilot

I cannot locate this in P2A.  Supposedly it is under settings, and speech, but I am not seeing anything there.

In Pilot2atc v3 0.29 after put the license, i have this fatal error:

"Exception has been throw by the target of invocation"

Any clues?

Is there any tag on the XML that can be added to make certain voices run randomly just in certain regions? I have around 350 Narrator voices installed and added to the random list xml and the variation is amazing but wondering if there is any sort of regionalization that can be done via the xml and if yes, what would the pre-defined regions be?

Checked the manual but did not see anything but was hoping it's an Easter egg nonetheless 😄

Example of xml (just for the sake of clarity):

using the trial version to consider if purchase the tool.

It's a real good tool also considering the possibility to use AWS voices that are really good.

The only doubt I have is regarding the need to always use several mouse clicks to be able to send requests to ATC (I use copilot auto respond).

Is it planned to have hotkeys allowing to select the wanted request and the related different variants related that?

This could also allow to create a sort of panel (that i have in mind) to still more speed the issue of the requests and their different possible options.

Thanks and kinf ìd regards

Joe

There seems to be no function to get an IFR Clearance once you have left the departure airport. Could a "Force Clearance" or something be implemented for such occasions?

Thanks

I'm new to P2ATC (in trial now), new to Avsim and am a total novice pilot flying exclusively C172, attempting touch and goes and short hops from my local airport to nearby small airports in X-Plane 12. 

Perhaps I don't understand how ATC works in P2ATC or in real life, but in X-Plane 12, ATC handles me all the way through my flight, whereas P2ATC seems to stop giving vector instructions after I take off even remaining in the pattern. I know I'm misunderstanding something, but I don't know what I'm supposed to do.

Thank you for any help for a fledgling pilot. 

For example, you can attempt a short flight from LEBL to LEPA. You will not be able to complete it successfully. At the latest, halfway through the short flight, the controller stops responding, or the automatic frequency change by the copilot during handover simply doesn't occur. It's frustrating.

I don't get any dialog prompt for Clearance at MDPC; verbal commands on MDPC Tower, GND, Center DLV - no response to verbal commands, no dialog coming up on the CoPilot Requests box.

Zibo 737 works fine.  What am I missing for the ERJ?  I seem to be communicating OK.  I have switched Transponder modes.  COM1 switched between ATIS and ClrDel OK.  Spinning my wheels.

Due to the necessary Step Climb procedure (P2A does not seem to be able to discern this) the FL alt. is coming in at FL300 when in fact the FP clearly shows step climbs up to FL 360. When I try and change the Cruise Alt. in P2A it appears to accept it at FL 360 and the altitudes in the Trgt Alt column confirm that but the message persists and I'm unable to fly. 

I have already checked all possible "Ignore" boxes in the ATC Settings tab so I'm at a loss.
