Thanks for the help again, Gerald. I will continue this conversation via our email thread. I will be sure to update the thread as new developments come about in case users have same questions in the future. 🙂

Hi Gerald, thanks again for the top-notch support! 😎 That did the trick, thanks! Thanks for the link to post. I guess where the other user and I are getting stuck is ... what if it's not on the drop-down menu of commands? I remember back in the old FSUIPC days there was a way to save command for home cockpits, etc based on mouse macros. While *most* everything we need is in the list of commands, it would sure be nice to be able to add to it. Little things like wing-body-overheat test while not of great function in a sim, is great to have built into the flows as to not disturb our usual flows by "omitting" it. Things like pulling the knob on the STBY attitude indicator to cage it, etc. While I can imagine it taking a long time for all the products you support, I wonder if there is a way we can help with that somehow. While it might not be useful for many, the ability to add to the list would be the key that unlocks the already massive capabilities of the addon. Yes, I've tried to both verbalize and assign it within the command's dropdown, but they do not move. I don't have this issue with other commands such as lights, etc. Any other ideas? Thank you, because of your suggestion, I now have a working ground service system going the way I want! 🙂 ---------- To recap, here are the pending issues: 1. Ability to add items to the custom command list? (ie: wing body overheat test, standby altimeter cage knob pull, etc. bits and pieces we'd like to add with time) 2. Igniter position commands not working (L, BOTH, nor R). Tried via voice and Voxscript custom command. (MSFS PMDG 737) 3. (I know weird, but....) our airline doesn't read the title of checklist but instead gets right into reading the items. Is there a way to omit the FO saying "xxxx checklist" at the beginning of a checklist? We do however say the name of the checklist when done with (ie: "before start checklist complete"). We're a very large US carrier and this gets guys ALL the time during training as it sure is different from the norm but one that I'd like to incorporate nevertheless, if possible? 4. How can I disable the greeting from the mechanic upon starting the program? I read on another post that we should disable the greeting in the .ini file, but I never found the said entry to turn it off. 5. I look forward to trying the recording tool you sent me. Due to the nomenclature used in our company's checklist, I'm having to use TTS voices for checklists. With the recording tool, will I be able to have a friend record our specific replies and then have the FO use the recordings or is the tool only for the preexisting commands/set verbiage? 6. Since I'm only using the MSFS PMDG 737, will all my Voxscripts and checklist transfer over to each model (-7/800) and/or each livery? ----------- I look forward to your thoughts! THANKS FOR YOUR INCREDIBLE SUPPORT and for helping us ELEVATE our sim experiences to new heights! ---->> NVpkT1U.png (1253×908) (imgur.com)

Thank you again for such a wonderful software. I have invested in the MSFS version for the PMDG 737. Considering how rich in features MCE is, I've decided to approach the setup process by configuring it from the ground up. In other words, I'd like to disable everything and turn features on only as I have time to configure them each. I work for a 737 carrier and my goal is to use MCE to match our procedures as close as possible as a tool to remain current. So far, I have had great success with setting up the checklists. Now I'm working on flows and have a few questions: 1. Is there a way to disable the FO from saying what they're doing after every step? Ie "logo light on" - Can he just do it and not say he's doing it? 2. Is there a way to add custom commands that are not working or added to the command list? I noticed the igniter position commands are not working. Also, I can't find the wing body overheat button test command. It would be really great to be able to add to the already existing list of commands. I use LVARS for my home cockpit so wondering if I can add them in a similar way? 2a. Is there a way to have a push button (for example the ATTEND button) to trigger a VOXSCRIPT event? It would be nice to have an announcement play when the button is pressed. 3. Next up I want to work on ground services. While I like the current command options, my carrier does things in a very specific way: Me: "Hey guys this is nose number XXXX, are you on?" Ground: "Hi captain, yes, 3 man crew on wireless. Pre-push items are complete, standing by" Me: "Roger, A's off, door lights are out, parking brake is released - you're cleared to push" Ground: "Alright starting push, you're cleared to start both engines" **DEFAULT or GSX PUSH TRIGGERED** (more custom lingo for the disconnect) **PUSH TUG DISCONNECTS** .... is this possible? Sorry for the long post but thank you in advance for your guidance. I look forward to hearing from you!

Hi there, thank you so very much for your reply! I'm delighted to hear you confirm my suspicions on MCE being what I need (and more!). I will certainly pick up a copy and send you a request for the recording tool once things settle down at work for me in the coming weeks. Keep up the great work!

Hello, Foremost congratulations and thanks to the MCE team for such a fantastic, customizable, and feature rich program. I've tried the demo and eager to purchase the full version. I will be using it exclusively tor the PMDG 737 in MSFS and have a few questions: 1. Do I need to purchase the MCE MSFS *and* "Multi Crew PMDG 737 MSFS"? If so, is the PMDG package what allows me to access the custom data refs/command I couldn't find in the demo? 2. In regards to voices, are we able to make our own recordings? If so, how? I notice the voice packs are in a dll format so curious to know if there is a tool to record our own sound sets/responses. 3. If unable to record our own voice packs, could we install natural sounding TTS voice packs off the net? If so, can you recommend a good source? 4. What are some good sources for further learning MCE? I've read the manuals included with the DEMO, but I reckon the program has a lot more to offer. Many thanks in advance for your replies!

Hi again, Still having issues with uninstalling the command center. I don't see it in the windows add/remove program list. I saw it in my appdata and removed it, but it still pops up when I launch the sim. Any other ideas? Thanks.

Got it, thanks a lot! 🙂

Hi, I've tried uninstalling FS2Crew FBW via the windows uninstall program list, but the command center still opens when I launch MSFS. I've also tried removing FS2CREW related folders from the (I believe it was) community folder, it the command center still auto launches when I launch MSFS. @Bjork would you mind helping me sort this out, please? Many thanks in advance and merry Christmas!

A more clear example ... notice the banding and light color. http://prntscr.com/p6a70l

Hello all, I have made some islands with both - SbuilderX and Ortho4xp (P3D version) and have some blue/tropical like water around the islands that I'd like to remove and instead have the ortho water transition into the P3D deep blue water. I have tried increasing the mask width in O4XP with not much help. https://prnt.sc/p63x3i Could someone shed some light into why it does this and how to get around it? Perhaps some sort of exclusion zone? Many thanks in advance. -PEACE FARM

Hi everyone, I'm back to using FSET after a hiatus from simming. I'm new to version 1.30 and have a few questions: 1. How am I able to compile large areas? More specifically, how can I manage what I have already created and looking to complete? I've read about the using Google Earth and KMZ files, but yet to fully grasp the process and concept. I would be wonderful if I was able to draw polygons and have those areas developed by FSET or something along those lines. 2. I'm only doing US scenery and have only one working service (virtual earth). I've exaustively searched the net for other working map services like Yahoo etc, to find them outdated. Would someone please be kind enough to supply me at least one other service as Virtual Earth has a lot of coloration issues in certain regions in the US? Thank you very much in advance! -peacefarm
