Looking for this callsign.

Recommended Posts

I saw it mentioned in an earlier post, that it was supported, but cannot find it in my database.I'm looking for KLM - Cityhopper, whose callsign is simply "City" .Thanks!Rick

That's strange, Rick, because it is definitely in RC v4. The entry in the airline list is 'KLM Cityhopper - Netherlands' and it's right there above the main KLM entry. I've just checked and it's also supported in v3, just in case you are still using an earlier version.If you are using v4 and still can't find it in the airline list, open the c4.csv file which you'll find in your RCv4data folder. Open the file with Notepad or a similar text editor and NOT Excel or a similar spreadsheet. Scroll down the list and see if this entry is there: KLM City Hopper,KLM City Hopper,KLM Cityhopper - Netherlands,0, 0If it's not, you can paste it in above the main KLM entry, save the file, and restart RCv4.Pete

Thanks Pete for the info. Everything was there, except for the data in the c4.csv file. Having chased this problem, I think now I have a vague idea of how, some of the voices & terms, etc are done.I have noticed 2 other problems with callsigns, and wonder if they can be fixed on my end, or need to be fixed in the next update?1) PSA's callsign is "Blue Streak", but RC4 calls it PSA. I see the term "Blue Streak" listed.2) Chicago Express's callsign is "Windy City", and that shows up when you choose that airline, when setting up RC4. But the data in the Windy City scripts shows "Chicago Express". I guess 1 & 2 have the same problem.......the data in the scripts are wrong.Again, can this be fixed by me?Also, is there an airline that uses the callsign "Premier", or something close to that?ThanksRick

Hi again, Rick,You're absolutely correct - both airlines have incorrect scripts and, therefore, incorrect .wav files have been recorded. I thought we might be lucky with PSA because, in addition to a PSA.wav, there is also a Blue Streak.wav but both have been recorded as "PSA". The same has happened with Chicago Express - although there is a Windy City.wav file, it has been recorded as "Chicago Express".It is possible to take parts of existing wav files and "stitch" them together in a sound editing program to make new wavs. Graham Jackson, one of the RC Beta Team has done this to make some new UK call signs and airport names but you have to lucky enough to find the right sounds in the existing wavs and it has to be done for each and every pilot and controller sound set. I doubt this is a very practical proposition but I'm sure Graham will be happy to give you more details if you want to try.I'm afraid the best I can do is to flag-up these errors to Doug for correction when the V5 pilot and controller sets are recorded.As far as "Premiere" goes, it's the call sign of Premiere Aviation Services, a specialist British helicopter charter company who run a number of the UK police helicopter operations.Pete
