Hi,Thanks for a great product.Has the communication with ground changed regarding hooking up some power on ground ?I use to do this after shutting down engine 2He does not connect the ground power with "please connect GPU and external air now" ?Nice touch with "the chokes is set", "remove parking brakes "btw on arrival :-) ?I still have the ups and down in volumen for the FO ,wil try some more after switching to "do nothing" in the win7 sound menu.When the FO is told to "starting sequence is one then two" he still starts engine number two firstEverything else is just perfect :-)(where is the changelog btw)ThanksMichael

Hi Michael,If the config panel is set to EXT/AC or EXT/AS, you'd say "please connect GPU and external air now"If the config panel is set to APU/EXT, you'd say "please connect GPU now"After saying "start sequence is one then two" the next command should be "start engine 1" and he'll start engine one first.I'm not sure about the sound ups and downs, please double check your windows audio settings and your FS2Crew audio settings.

hmm still the same. he does react to "then 2" as he starting engine number 2.Sounds is weird as some of the FO fraises is low and other is high. must test some more. normally i have to check the microphone on startup because windows would set the level back to 10db but that must be a windows issue.ThanksMichael

Be sure to say "Start sequence is 2 then 1" The start sequence part is essential.

actually i say "Start sequence is 1 then 2" but he starts engine number 2 after "then 2) :-)Maybe a reinstall is in place ?Ground is still not responding to GPU on arrival. everything else is good with ground.I have EZCA installed and when i load the aircraft it starts in 2D for a half a second or so then EZCA switch to VC and i switch back to 2D before the NGX is fully loaded (16 items remaning)Is there a problem here maybe ?/Michael

Hmmm, sound like he isn't "picking up" what you're saying so well, are you a native English speaker ? Try running the voice training and see if that helps.When you get to the gate, make sure you set up your ACP, then speak "cockpit to ground" Please connect the GPU now" and they'll connect the GPU

well i must say that he responds with "checked" "starting number 2":-) Everything else i command he hasnt got a problem. did a reinstall wil report back/michael

OK, Hope it works, Did you speak "Before Start Procedure" ?

Change log in in the SP1 Released thread.There's a link in the 1st post.

still cant get the FO to start engine one first after reinstall . He still starts engine two first with the command "starting sequence is 1 then 2" and he responds, starting number two. For the first time EVER i had a "black hole" in ESSA runway 19R after takeoff and after V1 during rotate. The aircraft suddenly was crashing and bank to the right and speed was all the suddenly 289knots :-) what the h...l?Michael

ON ARRIVAL:-)Well guys it worked with "please connect THE GPU now" :-) ha ha . Did the weight of tone on THE and then it worked. btw why does he sound like he is sitting in the cockpit drinking beer :-) ? shouldnt he be with the other guys?ThanksMichael

hmm still the same. he does react to "then 2" as he starting engine number 2.

Hi,

 

After some testing yesterday i have found a pattern to the phrase "starting seq is 1 then 2". He will respond with checked but leave engine 2 for me to control in which he will not perform the after engine start flow. this happened tt least 2 or 3 times yesterday.

 

No problem the other way around with the phrase

 

Thanks

Michael
