On February 28 I updated the clip collection with over 1,000 new clips across multiple regions If you are running the FS-ATC-Chatter 1.2.3 player it should detect the update and give you the opportunity to download those new clips. IMPORTANT: You must be running version 1.2.3 to get this update: https://stickandrudderstudios.com/fs-atc-chatter-1-2-3/ If you are an avid FS-ATC-Chatter user please consider writing a review of the product. It helps other users who may be considering FS-ATC-Chatter. https://stickandrudderstudios.com/fs-atc-chatter-reviews/ As a reminder, you can earn rewards by becoming a Chatter Project Volunteer and helping to collect and curate more ATC clips.

Thanks

@Ed62 Glad you got it working. Mark

@Ed62 I think you mentioned that you have other products that are connecting properly to the simulator. Are they still connecting properly? One of the concerns I have is that you have two different IP addresses in the .cfg file and the .xml file. I think they both need to be the IP address of the system that your simulator is on. Mark

There is a SimConnect-Sample.cfg file located in the root FS-ATC-Chatter folder. Per the FS-ATC-Chatter User Guide page 9 (Connecting to the Simulator), you need to rename that file to SimConnect.cfg and change its contents to point to the system that has the sim on it. Mark @Ed62

The files should be MP3 files. Make sure you put them in the correct controller folders under the custom region I never did find a good source for center frequencies outside of the U.S. and Canada so I recommend using the 123.273 option to automatically select center chatter when your radio is tuned to that frequency. You also need to make sure that you select your custom region in the control panel as FS-ATC-Chatter can't do that automatically. Normally when a volunteer creates clips they will use Audacity to break the downloaded MP3 archive into separate clips for a single pilot-controller communication exchange, We do this so we can have FS-ATC-Chatter inject pauses between the clips under program control. If the archive has mixed controller audio you need to listen to the exchange and determine if it is Departure, Tower, or Approach and then same that part of the clip to the appropriate controller folder. Hopefully, this answers your questions. If not please let me know. Mark

@Tony P I just wanted to make sure that you are not trying to run FS-ATC-Chatter.exe at the same time as Pilot2ATC. Pilot2ATC plays the clips, so FS-ATC-Chatter.exe is only needed to periodically check for clip updates. The 3rd tutorial video shows you how to copy the clips from FS-ATC-Chatter over to Pilot2ATC. https://stickandrudderstudios.com/fs-atc-chatter-tutorials/ Mark

I would need to look into what is involved with creating content for the Xbox and in particular what, if any, API's are available to interact with MSFS while running on the Xbox. Mark

Some of the MSFS2020 aircraft are not properly maintaining the SimConnect offsets for radio power. If possible let the aircraft developer know they should fix that. If they don't know which ones to manage put them in contact with me and I can share the details with them Thanks Mark

@krielkip Thanks for letting me know. Mark

What happens when you try to select it? Mark

Hans, Can you provide some more detail on exactly what happens when you try to select a frequency on the nearest facility dialog? Mark

There is indeed an option to start minimized but it is not minimized to the tray. @ypaul123 will that meet your needs? Mark

I have updated the clip collection with 150 new clips in the U.S. If you are running the FS-ATC-Chatter 1.2.3 player it should detect the update and give you the opportunity to download those new clips.

That is great news. I'll test it and add it to the User Guide in the next release. Thanks for letting us know. Mark

I will periodically update the main collections that you purchase but we have a few active volunteers now and I can't update the master retail version that often, it is now being offered on four retail sites so it is a bit of a pain to update them all with a 3+ GB file every few weeks. This is one of the reasons why we added clip updates directly into the X-ATC-Chatter and FS-ATC-Chatter players. You don't need to keep the FS-ATC-Chatter player running all the time. Just run it periodically and see if there are any clip updates. I also think one user actually created a folder link from Pilot2ATC\Sounds\ATC-Chatter\Regions to FS-ATC-Chatter\Regions so that after allowing the FS-ATC-Chatter player to pull down the new clips they would show up in P2ATC. Please note, I have not personally tried this and it would require that P2ATC have the ability to follow the folder link, but one user told me he tried it and it works great. Thanks for your understanding. Mark

I have updated the clip collection with 1,050 new clips in multiple regions. You can use the FS-ATC-Chatter 1.2.3 player or X-ATC-Chatter player to get the updates, it should detect the update and give you the opportunity to download those new clips. Once they are down you can copy the updated Regions over to Pilot2ATC per the User Guide.

I'm sure it is a minor issue with how you installed the clips in Pilot2ATC or the way Pilot2ATC is configured. I'm confident Dave (P2ATC developer) will get you going. Please let me know if I need to jump in. Mark

I wonder if it was a temporary problem. I just tried it with MS Edge and it downloaded fine. Mark

Sounds good

What the instructions tried to convey, was to not delete your original installation and to pick the same installation location as your current version. Maybe I did not make that clear enough. Mark
