I sure hope someone can help as I am beyond frustrated and over this program. I'll make this simple and quick.

 

Bought and installed fs2crew on 10/9. Install went great followed all instructions. Been using it with no problems all day yesterday and have been loving it. Got home today turned on my FSX only computer, fired up FSX and boom, FS2Crew is not working. I am not receiving any sounds from the test button or from anything. I can hear switches flipping as the first officer does stuff but no voice, and sound test button in the cfg window will not work. The only thing to note is when I click the cfg button and the cfg window opens it kind of "flashes" once, and the lettering that is lit up goes away then returns.

 

Yes I re-installed SP1 on the NGX when I installed fs2crew

Yes I set 2d panel as the default panel

Yes my audio devices are set correctly

No I have not installed anything since then

No it is not the voice button, it's the sound and test button not working

Yes I have done a reinstall of both fs2crew and NGX to try to fix and still nothing.......

 

Please tell me you have a solution!

If the audio worked before, then the audio suddenly stopped working, something changed on your system somewhere.

 

Try re-installing your audio drivers.

Did a system restore back to the day I originally installed it and it works again.

 

The only thing I changed was a [display] line in my fsx.cfg since then so could that possibly be it? I'd really like to make this .cfg edit and if this is causing it that's an issue..

Glad you up and running again.

 

What was the line exactly?

 

If you put the line back in, does the sound go away again?

 

But it's highly unlikely that caused whatever your sound issue was.

In my fsx.cfg I have these 3 lines:

 

[DISPLAY.Device.NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770.0]

Mode=1920x1080x32

Anisotropic=1

 

[DISPLAY.Device.NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770.0.0]

Mode=1280x720x32

 

[DISPLAY.Device.NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770.1]

Mode=1440x900x32

 

The thing is I only have two monitors and the first and last line are correct to those monitors. I have read in other posts to delete the the ones that aren't right, in my case it's the second line because I don't have a monitor set to that resolution so it is not needed.

 

This is the ONLY thing I had changed since installing fs2crew and when I did system restore it restored my fsx.cfg to what it originally was and everything ran correctly.

 

Now the only reason I have a hunch the video card might be an issue is because when I open the fs2crew panel and hit "CFC" the panel pops up, the digital letters in the boxes dim away and then return in a second or two later, then the sound doesn't work. No clicking sounds, no voice in the test button, nothing.

 

 

I will delete the line again tomorrow and see what happens and report back.

That middle Display line is for a monitor running FSX in DX10 mode.

Have you been using DX10 mode lately?

 

gb.

Thanks, be sure to let me know.  But I don't see how that could affect sound.

I have not been using dx10 however, there may have been a time it got clicked then UN clicked accidentally when first setting up the sim a few months back.

 

This line should be deleted and would be safe to do so correct?

Yes definitely, but keep a backup of the cfg anyway.

Well I don't know how to figure out what caused this before my system restore because I cannot re-create it. I will just make sure to pay close attention to any changes I make the next couple weeks and let you know if it happens again.

Maybe you were running in a program in the background that somehow stole the audio... maybe Skype or something?

Nope, only use the computer for FSX. Literally turn it on, fly, turn it off. No additional programs besides FSX related stuff and no other games or activities.
