Selecting pilot by gender

Featured Replies

I'm a guy flying the C152 today, but all the ATC responses were in a girl's voice.  Is there a way to swap out a female pilot for a male?  I searched everywhere but couldn't find it.

Yes.  Options > General > MISC >  Pilot and Copilot Avatars

Edited by dpcnh1

Yeah...why not?  There are a few different choices and they are available as described above.

My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL |
| Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |

 

 

Yes it’s great to see a range of different pilots available, very inclusive.

are you serious 

Are you addressing Curt with your question for wanting a male pilot response due to him being male, or are you asking MS if they are seriously implying that a 152 is a girls-only aeroplane by using a female pilot voice? :tongue:

Thank you, dpcnh1, I appreciate your help.

The avatar option changes the appearance, but the pilot voice is still female. Has anyone discovered how to get a male voice as the pilot?

Thanks

@antonmorse,  I have the same question.  Changing the avatar didn’t change the voice.  Sorry I can’t help.

Wonder how many people would buy Otto as a co-pilot !!

I had a female voice when I was using offline voices, but when I switched to Azure voices, I switched to a male voice.

The unchangeable offline voice gender is a feature. Not a bug.

I came to this conclusion.

Thanks.  I try that.

The female avatar has some curves on her, she's my copilotess now.
