I recently purchased a new computer (specs in signature) and installed RC3.0 on it. I also installed RC3.1 beta and the new wav files. I have tried 2 flights, both with similar results. In today's flight (KMSN-KORD) everything was fine through clearance, ground, turning over comms to OTTO and takeoff. After tower told us to contact departure, OTTO did, but there was no response from tower. Instead, OTTO immediately read back her response to what was obviously a new heading and altitude assigned by tower. I continued on the old heading and after a while OTTO again gave a response "Roger" to some instruction that was never heard. Some other info: - I have tried this flight 3 times with similar results (no departure sounds, but OTTO responses). I saved the last flight if you would like me to send the files. (Let me know which email address.) - The problem also happens if I use version 3.00exe file. - During last night's flight (KBOS-KALB) the sound cut out even earlier (with tower). Otto contacted tower and then responded to what must have been a directive to turn onto the runway. Even after takeoff, OTTO continued to respond to things, but I never heard from either tower or departure. - Although I often have other applications running, the problem today was tested with just FS and RC3.1 running.Any ideas what's going on? Thanks.

I also have a similar problem. In my case it began to happen after I updated to rcv3.1. I never had this problem with previous versions.No idea why this is happening. Hope someone comes up with a solution.I am using a Pentium 2.53Ghz and Windows XP Pro.Thank youLitow

The update assumes you have installed the optional controller files (folders 11 and 12) and the optional chatter pilots (folders 88-90).Please check your winwood folder and verify you have 1134 files in folders 2-12 and 1029 files in folders 88-90.You can find both the optional controller files and optional chatter pilots on Scott Campbells Flight Deck http://www.fsflightdeck.com/rcv3/

The additional files seem to have taken care of the problem (based on 1 test flight). I had misunderstood and thought that the updated wav. files I downloaded were all I needed. Thanks.

That did it for me also.Thank youLitow
