FS2Crew Weekend Update! (www.fs2crew.com)

 

Let's turn our attention away from the crazy US election (and the ghosts and goblins) for a moment and focus on the important things in life... like updates for Flight Simulator addons Priorities first

 

1. Pushback Express has been updated to Version 1.2. The big new feature is Voice Control! Not only can you speak in English, you can also speak in French, German and Spanish.

 

Looks like we just turned Flight Simulator into a little Berlitz language course

 

*****Very, very important: You must completely REMOVE V1.1 from your system prior to installing V1.2 or you'll have issues*****

 

To obtain the update, login to your account and re-download and re-install the main program.

 

So what comes next for Pushback Express? Next up, we're working on trying to bring animated people into MSFS.

 

We hired a new modeler and we're now using Motion Capture to create the little people. It's an extraordinary complex process, but we're making good progress.

 

The MSFS SDKs are still currently in a very weak state and progress seems slow with them, but we're trying to think of alternative ways to get the humans in and have them move around.

 

2. Now that we've got Voice Control figured out in MSFS, we're going to try to make a Voice Control version of Flight Crew A320! Stay tuned!

I know a lot of you love Voice Control, so we'll be getting that out asap for the Airbus.

 

3. Since November is basically here, it's time for the Black Friday sales to start! Use coupon code: BLACK2020. That'll give you 30 percent off whatever is in your FS2Crew cart.

 

We're living in some pretty crazy times right now, so stay safe everyone
