I have a small issue with "on"....Every time the F/O reaches the part of the checklist where my answer is "on" I know that I will spend some good extra time trying to make my computer acknowledge. The speech recognition for some weird reason thinks I am saying "armed" or even "up". Only after a few tries and finally pronouncing "on" in the most funny way sometimes the F/O acknowledges. Otherwise when I get frustrated I just say "next", but don't like to do that.Now, I have a good experience with FS2CREW for J41 and I never had such problem. And just did three times the speech recognition training as well. My only problem is with "on"... for crying out loud... Any ideas?

Hi Martin,The NGX uses the same speech recognition code used in the J41, so results should be the same.What's your accent? Some Brits have problems with "auto".It's usually resolved by doing this:Problem: Speech recognition is having problems detecting certain words. Can I train the speech recognition system for "specific" words?Solution:

  • Yes, you can use the dictation facility in Windows.
  • First, start 'Windows Speech Recognition' (this is not the FS2Crew Speech Recognition system, but rather the speech recognition system that comes with Windows).
  • Open a text document.
  • Next, dictate a list of words you are having trouble with.
  • Every time the speech recognizer makes a mistake, use the "CORRECT THAT" voice command. This effectively train the speech recognition engine to recognize how you pronounce these words. You may need to dictate and correct the same words multiple times until the recognition rate improves.

Bryan, that is an excellent support!... Sure will try that right away. Thank you

Bryan, sorry, I hate to be PITA but the method you proposed did not really work.I am still having problem on one particular checklist (before taxi) where all "ON" replies are being identified as "ARMED" no matter how I say on. FYI I did the speech recognition training several times and filled couple Word and Notepad pages with "ON"s. With Word or Notepad the speech recognition is correctly interpreting On. However in FS2CREW the "ON" call comes as "ARMED" and I have to call "NEXT" as a workaround. Any other suggestions? Windows speech recognition update or reset?

The more you use it the better it understands you. It learns as you go along. Keep trying.

I'm not sure where you're from, but try saying "On" with the most neutral American mid-west accent you can muster. Talk like Obama or one of the major TV hews broadcasters -they use that accent.Also try adjusting your mic sensitivity.Cheers,

I am Bulgarian. We have pretty hard accent...I find it strange that when I run the Windows Notepad with Speech recognition for example, every "ON" I say is interpreted as "ON".With the FS2CREW the more I am trying to say "ON", the more "ARMED" I get. I end up not being able to get even one right last night. It's not that big a deal since I have the NEXT workaround but it's kind'a frustrating. Anyway, I will play a bit more with the Speech recognition settings.

You can actually practice without doing a flight.Just open the Main Panel, and try saying "on" different ways until you finally see it in the Green Bar.Just tweak your intonation a bit till you stumble on the right sound.Or, as you say, just say 'next', but that's cheating! Cheers,

Had the same issue. I opened wordpad, started Speech Recognition (open control panel and type speech in the search bar on the top) and then started saying on and using 'correct that' everytime it was wrong ad nuseum. It's still not perfect in game but much much better

Yes same issue with me to, didnt used to be a problem years back but something changed and ON often as issues. Im English, I did the speach trainin in wordpad to try and teach my computer better, its a shame it doesnt have the same function as when its a word it doesnt know where it allows you to record it.Ive noticed that if i say a sentence like "turn the switch on" it perfectly gets the ON word, but if I just say ON, it often types Armed. Which is most annoying as that is a command also. I told it was silly and it said it was a city -- dont you just love computers!I'll keep practicing and maybe eventually it will work out how to speak English rather than American lol

I played about with this a it more, I went in to the windows settings for voice control and created a new voice profile set rather thanit using the default set. Did the training setup it asks you to do on recreating a new profile. I then opened wordpad and did some more training by speaking certain words like on, armed, off etc that will be used in fs2crew and used the correct that feature when it was getting them wrong, I also tweaked the microphone settings a little also.And now unlike before when I tried to keep doing training in the hope it would get better at it, it actually as. It now gets On every time, no more armed coming up. So any of you who have issues with it getting certain words mixed up, might like t try this procedure to help.

Thanks James. Definitely will look into that after the SP.

The only thing i have issues with is when saying "set" like when reading back the altimeter setting "1012 SET" that always comes back as "1012 6".
