Radar Contact 4 on WideFS7

Recommended Posts

I set up RC4 on a network computer and it works fine with the FS sim, however, the controllers voice and commands are played on the the other computer not on the sim computer.

Is there a way to change or project the voices onto the computer that I'm actually running the sim? I can't find anything in a manual or forum that addresses this.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Hello

What you need is connect the line out on your WideFS machine to the line in on your

FSX machine using a 3.5 to 3.5 lead.

This is the way I do it as WideFS cannot send the audio over the network.

The big advantage of having RC on a separate PC is that you can route the voice to your headset instead of having it mixed up with the aircraft and other sounds.  Alternatively you can route it to another speaker placed strategically to make the voice clear against all the other sounds -- I can switch mine to speakers in the overhead, for instance.

How would I go about doing this?

 

Thanks

Plug your headset into the client PC.

I'd need that for the fsx machine.

 

Er, so why ask how to separate RC voice into your headset if you want all the sound in one place?

Again thanks to all for the input.

Pete, thanks for the insights and i now do use this set up with headset plugged into client and other audio to the sim computer. it works very well.

I do,however, occasionally need to pipe all audio through the headsets (to keep the aircraft noice from bleeding into the house. I found a solution for this with a RadioShack 3 - 1male 3.5 audio connector. I wasnt able to find it in any store but it was avaialble on line.
