December 25, 200421 yr Hello All -Before I get rolling on the questions -First and foremost RC V.3.1 is compatible with FS9 correct? If not, disregard the rest :-)2.) Does RC reconize the other callsigns of aircraft (i.e. Delta, UAL, etc)3.) I'm currently running Ultimate Traffic, does RC reconize and control these aircraft as well. 4.) What is the interface like during flight.Sorry for the list, just heard a little bit about RC and was curious about it. FS9 ATC is driving me crazy with "go arounds" every attempt to land ;-) . Thanks and Happy holidays! Rob Sciarrino
December 25, 200421 yr Hi Rob,1) RC V3.1 is compatible with FS92) Many callsigns are programmed in to RC, but some of the more obscure ones are not. Unfortunately there's no way to add callsigns to RC yourself, but jd and Doug do maintain a list of requested callsigns which may be added to new releases.3) RC 3.1 does recognise AI aircraft, but has no control over them. It will issue traffic advisories if the AI aircraft get too close, will issue a go around if there's an aircraft on the runway as you approach, etc. We're all eagerly awaiting RC V4, which promises vast improvements in that area, including limited control over the other aircraft.4) RC uses a menu system which bears a vague similarity to the FS9 ATC interface, but uses Pete Dowson's ADVDisp to display the menu. Thus the menu can be docked on any convenient place on the panel.The easiest way to check out the features before buying RC is to visit the website, where I believe the manual is available for download.Hope that helps.Ian Ian Box
December 26, 200421 yr The OP should know that RC 3.1 will register itself with FSUIPC. You will not have to pay for FSUIPC registration unless you want all of FSUIPC's features but I recommend it.In the options menu of the RC application there are two entries you can fill out for your aircraft/airline name which will be spoken if in the .wav libraries, and the tail number which can be alpha-numeric and be spoken phonetically, that is each letter/number pronounced. In that same panel you will find a box to check labeled Interact with AI which means as stated above that AI targets within a specific range will be called to you.Our replies refer to the latest build and wav file libraries, and latest FSUIPC as in the info pinned at the head of this forum.I run it under W98SE and I'm sure it runs on more advanced Win versions just fine.I've been using it almost for two years and it really makes good sense to me in the way it operates.
