    Hello, 

    I installed Pushback Express for P3D v5 and got the error: Error reading the settings file. When I continue and change some settings, the settings are written correctly into the xml file. I saw that there already was a thread with the same issue for P3D v4 but no solution. How can I get rid off this error?

    Many thanks, Rob

    Hello Dave,

    Issue solved. I uninstalled all my Cereproc voices (5.0.1) then I cleaned the registry from all the entries that contained 'Cereproc'. Rebooted installed one Cereproc voice for testing. Went to the Windows Speech Recognition Text to Speech option dialog and tried the Cereproc voice: ERROR again. So I started checking all the options in the Speech Recognition screens. In the Speech Recognition option screen the language was on English US but there was also the option English UK, so I tried changing that and voila now it works in the voice selection screen! I can switch between Ivona and Cereproc voices again. Don't ask me why because my region setting is on English US. Then I tried it in P2A and there it also works. Maybe a Windows update changed the setting? I don't know, but such thing cost too much time. 

    Best,

    Hello Dave,

    Thanks for your response, but they are working in windows speech recognition. I can switch between ivona and cereproc voices without a problem. In the past that wasn't possible either. I'll check the installation.

    Hello,

    I'm getting the error below when I try to play a Cereproc voice in P2A. In the past I could play them but I could not mix them with Ivona voices. I updated my Cereproc voices to version 5.01 and in the Speech Recognition Text to Speech dialog I can play Cereproc and Ivona just fine.

    For your information:
    I just downloaded the cereproc voices again from cereproc.com and now they work together with the Ivona voices I have.The cereproc voices I had were version 4.0.4. The new ones are version 5.0.1.

    Best,

    Hello,
    I got exactly the same problem. I used a number of IVONA voices next to the Microsoft ones without any problem. I bought a number of Cereproc voices recently and the problems started. I found out that when I start P2A or the Speech Properties dialog and play a Ivona voice first and then try to play a Cereproc voice, the error  occurs. Ivona voices play ok then. This happens also the other way around, when playing a Cereproc voice first and then a Ivona voice. I haven't found a solutions yet. Now one of the sets is useless.

    Hello Dave,

    I would like to know what the best way would be to define the following approach into LOWI Innsbruck.
    I'm coming in IFR via the TULSI 3A (TULS3A) and want to make a visual approach (Special Circling Procedure) to runway 08.

    So you first descent along the OEV LOC then at D6.5 DME OEV turn left heading 230 degrees and follow the route as described in the chart above.
    How do I file this in P2A?

    I filed a RNAV - RW26 - R26-E approach and before I had to turn left to heading 230 I requested a visual approach rwy 08 but no reply. When I requested 'request landing rwy 08' I got clearance to land at runway 08. Is this the correct way to handle such an approach?

    Regards,
    Rob

    Hello Dave,

    Yesterday I encountered my first loop. I was making a short flight from EDDM to EDDN in Germany. I was instructed to contact radar control, which I did. Radar control then started telling me I should contact radar control and again and again......

    I disconnected and reconnected again, filed the flight plan and made contact again. So far so good, I was cleared for the approach but never got the instruction to switch to the tower frequency. So I pronounced a established call to the current controller (I was established), then I got the instruction to contact tower. After landing I never got the instruction to contact ground.

    I'll send you the log file.

    Regards,
    Rob

    Hello Dave,

    I encounter a problem with the 'contact tower trigger point'. Again at EHAM but now at runwat 09. I had this problem some time ago but didn't  had the time to report. The trigger point is to far away from the hold short point. I'm using Flytampa EHAM and imported the airport. I had to draw red runway line for 09/27 myself because it was not there. As you can see I added a hold short point at the correct position. But now I have to taxi onto the runway before the trigger to switch to the tower frequency becomes active.

    Assigned taxi route from atc

    Placed contact point, too far from hold short point.

     Taxi maintenance window with hold short point and route to runway active.

    I hope you can look into this issue, it really is very unrealistic that I must taxi onto the runway before I get clearance.

    Rob

    Hello Dave,

    I finally had time to check out version 2.5 x64 and I encountered the following issues:

    1)
    When connecting to the sim and the battery switch and master avionics switch is off, the atis starts playing (the pwr indicator is red). When I turn the switches on and off the atis message stops.

    2)
    I tried to make a short test flight from EHAM, created a flight plan with rwy24 as the takeof runway. and everything went ok until the taxi clearance. The taxi clearance itself was ok but when I looked on the map and selected the taxi button to show the taxi route it gave me a route to the middle of rwy 36L. I started taxi maintenance and I placed the aircraft at gate D52 and selected rwy24 as the active and selected RouteToRunway: exactly the same, it gave me rwy 36L again. I checked a number of other runways but they worked ok. This was working before the update to v2.5. Then I de-installed version 2.5 and installed it fresh. Still the same. 

    3) 
    Importing taxiways from the scenery for a single airport takes ages, didn't have that with the previous release. But didn't make any difference for item 2.


    Regards,
    Rob

    Hello Dave,

    I've a question about the trigger point which is used to switch to the tower frequency. 
    I'm trying to change a taxi route, again at EHAM. But this time for runway 36C.
    I imported the taxiways for EHAM, I use the Flytampa airport. 

    36C_01_small.png

    When I press the RouteToRunway button in the Gate and Taxiway Maintenance dialog,
    I get a route I don't want to take, I want to take the lowest entry point.

    36C_02_small.png

    There are no hold short points and there is a break in the route. 
    So I added a hold short point and closed the taxi route, I also added a taxi
    point which is close to the runway start.
    Changing the taxi route gives me no problem. See the pictures below. 
    And it also gives me the route I want when I press the RouteToRunway button again.

    36C_03_small.png

    When I request taxi clearance the route is also ok but the black
    triangle (trigger point) is still at the start of the runway.

    36C_04_small.png

    Whatever I try I just can't get it closer to the hold short point.
    Is there any way I can force this to happen? 
    Would it be an idea to be able to place this trigger point manually.
    This way you would be very flexible in defining the taxi route.

    Regards,
    Rob
