Hi captains,

 

After check a lot of FS2Crew videos on Youtube and read quite enough about the addon, finally I've decided to purchase it. Before to begin with the install process, I've reading system specs and #####!!!!... one of the requirement is an english version of Win7. Spanish is my mother language, therefore my Win7 version is spanish. Went into "Control Panel" to change all OS language, but spanish is the only allowed language (maybe because my installed Win7 version is "Home", instead "Ultimate"). I would like to know if there is any solution for this, before reinstall Windows in it's english version??? (...and FSX, and FSX patches, and NGX, and bla, bla, bla, bla, bla............)

 

Thanks

Hi Ivan,

 

Your options are:

 

1. Use Button Control.

2. Use Vistalizer to switch your OS to English (www.froggie.sk)

3. Buy Windows 8, as it allows you to install any language.

 

Win 8 is your best bet.

And is Win8 already compatible with FSX, NGX, FS2Crew, etc....?

Hi Ivan,

 

Yes, I've been using Win 8 RTM as my main OS for the last 2 months with FSX, NGX, FS2Crew, etc.

 

No issues.

 

Works 100 percent.

Then I'll take the long way and will install Win 8 and a clean install of FSX, NGX, etc... Will take much more time but I think it worth the effort. Thanks a lot for your help, byork. Have a nice and safe flights.

Hi,

 

this topic is quite old, so maybe something has changed...

 

Is there solution to use FS2CREW 'Voice Control' on my non-english Vista 64-bit system besides buying Win 8 or above (or Win7 Ultimate)?

 

Ps. I heard that Vistalizator is not quite legal solution... but maybe I'm wrong...

Hi Lucas,

 

Regarding Vista I don't know but for my french windows 7 home with english-US pack installed it works currently maybe due to a recent windows update.

...my french windows 7 home with english-US pack installed...

 

Hmm, I heard that only of Windows 7 Ultimate users (or higher Windows versions) can install language packs...

Not if you use Vistalizator.

 

However, Windows 10 is free for most people.

 

If you get Windows 10, anyone can download the English US language pack unlike Windows 7.

 

That is why we at FS2Crew love Windows 10.

 

Windows 10 really opens up the European, non-Anglosphere voice control market for us.

Hi Bryan,

 

...not exactly - free Windows 10 is only for Win 7 and 8 users :( (as I wrote earlier, I have Vista)

 

And I read somwhere that Vistalizator is not quite legal solution... but maybe it is not true...

Vista is a dog.  Bare minimum you should be using Windows 7.

 

Windows 10 is ideal.

 

I'd just go buy Windows 10.

:smile:

 

I have never complained on Vista...but maybe you're right :wink:

 

but I also have doubt if all my addons (GSX, ASN, DX10Fixer, ORBX, etc.) and FSX of course, will work well on Windows 10...

 

...and even I would have Win 10 PL version, I could install ENG-US language pack, right?

:smile:

I can't guarantee it 100 percent since I've never used the Polish version of Windows 10, but you should be able to download the Eng US region pack.  I know other non anglophone countries can.

 

You may want to confirm it with other polish flight simmers though to be 100 percent.

Right... thanks.

As I said before with my french windows 7 home and English-us mui and lip installed I can us English-US voice recognition (selected in voice recognition panel) WITHOUT vistalizator and WITH my windows still in french !

 

Just try !
