English radio language SU-25T

[Macjimm]

How can I set the radio language in the cockpit to English?

 

It is great to have the Russian for authenticity, but for training it would be very helpful if I could understand the incoming radio messages. It would be especially helpful when I turn off the text in the upper left window.

quick and dirty..you can`t. Radio Language depends on the Country you "fly" for. One of the GREATEST Inventions of ED :music_whistling:

There must be a way, one of the SU25T tutorials on youtube is using English language radio.

[chardly38]

Rebuilt all missions so that Russian aircraft are set to USA. Then you will get English

[Macjimm]

I was helped by Robert Sogomonian. He suggested that I fly for Georgia in the SU-25T. The Georgians speak English.

 

Worked well.

Be nice if you had the option in options ? If that makes sense ..... I like the Toad but Im not Russian !

[Esac_mirmidon]

Or you can replace the entire Sounds/Speech/Sound/RUS/Common folder with the same folder in Sounds/Speech/Sound/ENG/Common.

 

You loose russian voices in all russian planes, replaced by english sound files.

Ah, thanks Esac - for reminding me. This has been doing my head in since 1.2.5

 

I had done this change (not deleted just renamed the RUS and copy the ENG one and rename it to RUS) in 1.2.4 - and promptly forgot all about it.

 

When I updated to 1.2.5, of course the updater replaced the English files with Russian ones - and I was thinking ED had changed the option to have English (thanks to the guys at 159th who should have known that when I was complaining about it and let me suffer!).:joystick:

 

Wot a plonker!

 

Changed back again now... :music_whistling:

[Nate--IRL--]

Wait..... when this was changed first to English voices, people complained, now that they changed it back, more people complain?

Half complained before, now the other half has a valid argument. I'm just glad I can drop my "Russian Speech Mod" from my JSGME.

[JD_LincsUK]

I didn't complain about English - it's my native tongue (the proper one, not that skewed, lazy version the 'other lot' use :) ) and let's face it, if I am a pilot in my country's air force, I'm going to understand everything that goes on - because it's my native language.

 

So at the end of the day I don't buy all this "it's so unauthentic" or "but it's a Russian plane so you need to have Russian language" blurb.

 

Personally I think that's a really stupid thing to say - oh yes - let's all have everything in a language we hardly understand a word of and then it will be so much more realistic.

 

Horlicks.

 

I do have sympathy for those who don't speak English, Russian or German, though.

Maybe it would of been better had ED implemented an option to have either russian or english voices in the menu screen.

 

That would of been the best of both worlds.

Yeah , I know what you mean . But there already is a option for Russian/Irish voices . Ne nice if you could choose .

I am also happy with the current speech status as I don't have to use a MOD to get russian speech in russian airforce. :thumbup: for ED, thanks for this.

[VapoR]

There was Russian accented English before, what happened to that?

 

I think this should be an option in the settings then everyone will be happy.

[Irregular programming]

There has been very little complaints about it but I agree that option in the settings would probably be the best, but the english accented speech for Russian aircrafts was awful and I am glad that it's gone.

 

 

At least it's 100% better now that you can easily modify your installation yourself without downloading mods if you want it any other way.

I was thinking the same, earlier. Option would be good to keep everyone happy.

 

Still, I won't complain as it can be adjusted as mentioned.

 

Must admit, I'm surprised, though - normally I get a right slagging off for saying I think having it in Russian for the English version is not the right thing to do.

 

Another thought, though - isn't the idea of FC3 and the individual aircraft from it to encourage "lay" people into the sim fold?

 

I think if they get a Russian aircraft thinking it would be nice to try something new, it might put them off if they can't understand anything (except the subtitles and that is only a proportion of what's going on). I thought making things more accessible was the aim.

 

Like I said - I have a fix, so I'm not bothered, but those who don't go reading forums for whatever reason, won't know it. Hopefully it will come up in Google.

[badger66]

Well , how do you fix that then please ?

[JD_LincsUK]

Look at post #8 ;)

I think some people just want options.

[Tone71]

I quite liked the russian accented english, made me feel like they were speaking russian but I could understand it! Prefer russian written language in the shark pit though.

[chardly38]

Tone71 I agree. I did like post# 8. Back to understanding Russian aircraft and airports. I did notice that there are alot more Russian allied flight voices.

As part of the Nevada scenery upgrade, all communications will be in Pig Latin ...

I had in fact complained with that. I prefer to have radio messages in the language the AC Im flying belongs to. Although since they had forced english language on russian planes I suspected this feature would cause complains either way. Probably one of those things which would be better left at user discretion with a nice little button in the misc preferences.
