Re-install MCE to default C:\Program Files (x86)\… path.

If using a launcher app to start the sim, make sure it also runs as admin.

Reset MCE to factory settings

Start->All Apps->Multi Crew Experience->Restore factory settings.

No need to redo speech training if already performed.

Start the sim, load aircraft and wait until it's ready to fly.

Start MCE

It should end-up in "Flight mode" where commands for FO interaction are enabled.

Should only be in "DIALOG MODE" when one of FSX or PREPAR3D dialog boxes is active.

 

 I did all that, it shows co pilot listening and that's it

 

co pilot boards and does all the items I request, but he never responds, he just does the action requested

I forgot, mce never goes into flight mode, I load the aircraft, start mce, then place the aircraft at desired location

Youi can force flight mode as follows...

 

Right-click anywhere on MCE user interface and select "Force flight mode" from drop-down menu.

As for audio going faint, please read this thread.

Are you running FsInn by any chance?

 

 

No I don't see it anywhere

FsInn is a dll that loads as part of Vatsim or other online ATC.

Do you have such software that may have a permanently displayed dialog box that might be fooling MCE that one of FSX dialog boxes is pausing the sim when it isn't?
