May 8, 20233 yr Always seems strange to see nobody in the seat next to you. This has a lot of potential!
May 8, 20233 yr Interesting idea but I suspect it will be hard to execute in a believable way. The video did not work for me. MSFS 2024.

May 8, 20233 yr His X-Plane version is a lot better. More natural voice and flow. Only problem is that the FO is so good you might be feeling a bit redundant in the left seat. 🙂 Edited May 8, 20233 yr by gboz YSSY.

May 8, 20233 yr My word, that's awful. If she complains about being asked her age, what's she going to say when I activate my FO camera view and end up sitting on her lap..?
May 8, 20233 yr Voices and animation too robotic. Better to go for something like FS2Crew which has excellent voices:-

I think if they purchased a few human models with photorealistic textures so it matches MSFS's environment, and used motion capture to record realistic animations, and then used one of the better AI voice programs or paid voice actors to pre-record voices, it could completely remove the uncanny valley effect we have now. There's no reason the other pilot in a multi-crew-experience has to be jarring in 2023. It should be just another part of the experience, like the ramp agents or AI traffic.

Westy, I’m pretty sure we talked about co-pilot programs a year ago. The problem I see here is that the voice is very fake, as are the graphics. I’ve been working on my co-pilot program, which is really a complex VoiceAttack profile with a separate program as a front-end, pretty solidly this year. My FO will read checklists and run flows in the PMDG 737 now, as well as engaging in (hopefully interesting) random conversation. The in-sim voice attack part is voice only, no zombie graphics. But I do always mod the files to put a pilot model next to me. In VR, it’s helpful to have the impression of someone sitting next to you in your peripheral vision I think. Voiceattack works well for complex speech recognition, but I mainly use the program in button-control mode. I’ve also decided to avoid live text to speech at all costs, and just use mp3 files for output.

May 9, 20233 yr Don't know if I'm alone in this, but I think I prefer to see the so-called "zombie" FO sitting there and pressing the right buttons than having a ghost FO talking to me and making invisible actions.

May 9, 20233 yr That's like flying with ChatGPT as my copilot. Creepy indeed. For transparency: I'm a community mentor at the BATC discord. However, I do not get paid for it in any way.
