mkel2010 Posted August 12, 2024 Posted August 12, 2024 I have Easy Comms turned off. Whenever I use voice commands to contact ATC, i.e., to request startup, taxi and take off, I get the repeats of my command by the game but no response to the request from ATC. I end up needing to use the F-Key commands on the Comms menu and the response from ATC is almost immediate. I have the radios tuned to the correct frequency. Any way around this issue or is there something else I need to be doing? Another issue I've noticed is that after ATC issues the take-off clearance and I start to taxi onto the runway, ATC tells me they are unable to clear the take-off, followed shortly by a repeat of the take-off clearance. Any ideas on that?

Any ideas on that? This is a long standing bug. Ignore the unable to clear and carry on. 1
rob10 Posted August 12, 2024 Posted August 12, 2024 Somewhere I think I remember having seen the first issue. I'm assuming you're using Vaicom or some like that? Check the subforum for it and you might get a solution. Might have been having an old version still installed even if you weren't using it? I don't use voice commands so I can't remember and I could be way off on the possible issue.

450Devil Posted August 14, 2024 Posted August 14, 2024 Just a thought - for the VA commands that ATC is not responding to, how long have you set "Hold Down For x.xxx seconds" in the VA Add a Keypress box? While I normally only set 0.03 seconds in most of my VA commands, I have found that for a few of the VA commands I need to set a longer hold down keypress time - usually 0.100 seconds.
Solution mkel2010 Posted August 14, 2024 Author Solution Posted August 14, 2024 I've got the issue figured out. I'm using the JanJan plugin for VA and discovered that the comms menu needs to be open for the game to respond to the ATC voice commands. 1
