Hi Mark can we no longer just download the updated clips without needing FS-ATC-Chatter or X-ATC-Chatter?
I only use the clips in P2ATC and would prefer not to have to add the player just to get the updates.

I will periodically update the main collections that you purchase but we have a few active volunteers now and I can't update the master retail version that often, it is now being offered on four retail sites so it is a bit of a pain to update them all with a 3+ GB file every few weeks. This is one of the reasons why we added clip updates directly into the X-ATC-Chatter and FS-ATC-Chatter players.

You don't need to keep the FS-ATC-Chatter player running all the time. Just run it periodically and see if there are any clip updates. I also think one user actually created a folder link from Pilot2ATC\Sounds\ATC-Chatter\Regions to FS-ATC-Chatter\Regions so that after allowing the FS-ATC-Chatter player to pull down the new clips they would show up in P2ATC.

Please note, I have not personally tried this and it would require that P2ATC have the ability to follow the folder link, but one user told me he tried it and it works great.

Thanks for your understanding.

Really like this add-on, just need a working Navdata reader for WIn 11, tried the latest version on GitHub but failed me big time. If there are any folks out there who have this setup recently, please share your tips. THX. Thanks to Mark for his 100% super fast support on his fantastic add-on.

RE: ATC Chatter & Pilot2ATC Tutorial up on YT

My FS-ATC Chatter Regions folder also has a ClipTags.csv inside as well, I guess I should not add this to the Pilot2ATC Sounds ATC_Chatter folder?

i am using the chatter in piot2atc works as mentioned , quite immersive though - just hope the dev updats the main program

 

how does the native application handle frequency lookups from MSFS @markcellis? I'm finding that my frequency being set to say, "Minneapolis Center" is not being properly categorized as "center" and gets set to "approach" etc.

I assume when you refer to the native application you mean the player that comes with FS-ATC-Chatter, NOT Pilot2ATC. The FS-ATC-Chatter player uses a frequency database that closely matches what ships with MSFS 2020. That said, you could have different scenery installed where the defined frequencies might not match the default database.

FS-ATC-Chatter uses the same scenery database format as LittleNavMap. You can use the NavDataReader from the same author to scan your installed scenery and generate an updated FS-ATC-Chatter frequency database. Here is a YouTube video that shows you how to use it:

Nice. Thanks Mark. That was extremely easy with the included documentation. 

@jstnj Did it fix the issue?
