I'm flying MJS8-Q400_PRO and want to use your program for it.

However my W7 (64) is a Dutch version, so such a programm is not installed. What to do? :mad:

Best solution:

 

1. Upgrade to Windows 10 (it's free), and download the English - US language pack.

 

2. Upgrade to Win 7 Ultimate.

 

3. Try Vistalizator (www.froggie.com).

 

4. Stick to only Button Control.  Button Control is coming for the Dash 8.

 

Windows 10 is by far your best option.

 

Best,

Hi Brian, Thanks for your answer. I'll consider W10.

I  have Windows 7 Home Premium sp1 64 bit (Danish) and I downloaded Vistalizator and the MUI for Windows 7 64bit sp1 last week and read the details how to use it. I did what was explained and it changed my Danish Windows 7 language to english-us and speech recognition worked. So now I'm using FS2Crew for PMDG 737 NGX Reboot and it's challenging and fun. I was a little worried before installing this program, so I made a system restore point and a full system copy, but happily I did'nt have to use it :-)

Vistalizator will do the job, but unless you have some exotic hardware that does not yet support Win 10, there's no reason not to upgrade to Win 10.

 

It's a free upgrade, and Win 10 is great.

Can't get FS2Crew (voice) to work on on my dutch Windows 10 home version because of the speech recognition error: Speech Recognition coulnd not start because the language configuration is not supported. Is there a work around for this?

You need to download the English US or UK language pack.

Question:  How do I install the English - US language pack in Windows 10?  I tried, but English - US is not visible in the 'Language' drop down menu.

Answer:

1. Go to Settings > Time & language > Region & language.

2. Select "ADD A LANGUAGE TO THIS DEVICE".
3. Select the language you want to use from the list (ENGLISH)
4. Choose which region's version you want to use (ENGLISH - US).   
5. Left click on the English US language set, and a new menu should appear.  Then you must click 'OPTIONS' and then click 'DOWNLOAD' under the 'SPEECH ' category.
6. Go to the 'ADVANCED SPEECH OPTIONS' page in the Control panel.
7. English - US should now be visible in the Language drop down menu.
8. Don't forget to train your voice!


Be sure to set English US on this panel!
