Stange happenings...

[Cyrille de Lattre 2]

Good morning,

I am running P3DV4.5, just upgraded from this morning, started a flight with NGXU, all was working perfectly, until I call for the before taxi checklist, then for any given reason my FO decided to go on semi strike, he was obeying to every order but never replied to me, doing the audio test gives me a silence, while I still can hear the cabin voices, all other voices in fact as well as sounds, but yet no FO.

Did it happen already, and any one has an idea? 

I have not yet restarted my flight, I am in the middle of it, so obviously I will see if it comes back after restarting, but anyway...

Thanks a lot

Sounds like your audio dropped out.

Are you using a USB headset?

Ensure your ports don't go to "sleep".. check your power saving options.

Cheers,

Hey,

All other sounds are working 100%, P3D, engines, clicks when I ask the FO to lower the gear or retrackt things, it is just his voice that is gone. I can watch a movie while flying also. just the FO voice and the play audio test in the secondary panel that is gone.

You've tried updating your audio drivers?

 

 

[Cyrille de Lattre 2]

Yes, all are uptodate...

nevertheless, unfortunately my flight had a CTD, so I have had to restart P3D, and it is working again, but it does not tell me why it stopped.

Again, check your power options... make sure your USB port isn't going to sleep.

 

[Cyrille de Lattre 2]

done that already.

Happens every flight for you?

If you can reproduce it, send me a support ticket.

We've devised a new system to re-inititalize the audio system should it ever drop, but we need people who experience the dropping to test it.

Hello,

I did try several time to reset the audio system, but it did not work. If it happens again, give me the protocol to follow and I will do it

We just create a new system to reset the audio system.  It involves code changes.

We need you to test the system if you can make the audio drop again.

I would be very happy to test that system the thing is I do not know how to reproduce this case of dropping... but yes I would be happy to help.

I have just completed a flight from VHHH to OBBI with no failure but with the 747 PMDG. 

The only thing I have noticed is when I go from normal mode to window mode for the FS2CREW panel, I have always a black sqare on the left. See attached pictures.

It does this for every windows, whether main or secondary.

[byork 1,129]

I've never seen that one before.

Does it does that for every 2D panel window you have, not just the FS2Crew panels?

 

You can attempt to reproduce the audio dropping out by unplugging your headset, then plugging it back in.

Let me know if you can reproduce it that way.
