The Control Room Floor / VRC - TeamsSpeak3
« on: February 24, 2012, 09:43:31 AM »
Well, I think I got the computer deal figured out.
Cannot use the TeamSpeak transparent overlay with VRC
Wave on VRC; DirectSound on TeamSpeak
Set the audio properties in the Windows control panel and disable the exclusive mode application priority setting.

Not one crash tonight, but, not too busy either. We'll see what happens this weekend.

Last night was an embarrassment. I lost count last night how many times Teamspeak crashed, had a stuck mic. Frustrating for me and irritating for fellow controllers.

I'm now running VRC with the Wave audio device and TeamSpeak with DirectSound. I am getting conflicting views from other responses on other boards as to whether or not they need to be different or the same. More seem to be in the camp that they should be different. So, it will stay that way for now.

I unchecked the DirectX overlay plugin and will try that out later and see if that helps. I am also going to look into disabling the exclusive mode application priority and see if that helps, assuming it's enabled and I can find it in the program setup.

When I got done last night, I logged off thinking that if I had been in the same room or building with the other controller I was working with, I would have had a butt whippin'. It was that bad.

Just switched from Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit to Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit and working out the bugs.

I have, in the past had TeamSpeak issues that seem to have followed me to the new OS. With the 64bit OS I am using the 64bit TeamSpeak. Every so often, it locks up, or the mic stays open, can't see who's talking, then it seems to work itself out or more often the case have to logoff then back on.

I am wondering if I potentially have a conflict with the VRC sound device setup.
1.  Do I want the same audio device setup on TeamSpeak that I have with VRC? ie. DirectSound on VRC, DirectSound on TeamSpeak or do I want to have one running DirectSound and the other running Wave?
2.  Who else is having TeamSpeak issues? Is there something else at fault that I am not aware of?

The Control Room Floor / Color Palettes

Quote from: Jonathan Cox
Hello folks,

I'm working on building color profiles based on color palettes used in the real world. I've found this document referencing ACD for CARTS and TCW for STARS. I'm looking for something similar for other radar systems, especially DSR and ASDE-X. If they are available for other types as well, that would also be cool. I've searched Google to no end and have had almost no luck.

If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks!

Virtual Airlines / Seven virtual airlines of the same airline?
« on: December 29, 2011, 10:38:33 AM »
Ok, how does one figure out a virtual airline with no less than seven variations?

You've got:

Southwest Virtual at http://www.virtualswa.com/
Southwest Virtual at http://www.swavirtual.com/
Southwest Airlines Virtual for Flight Simulator USA Online at http://www.southwestairva.com/
Southwest Virtual at http://www.swava.net/
Southwest Virtual Airlines at http://southwestvirtualairlines.org/
Southwest Virtual Airlines at http://flysouthwestva.webs.com/
Southwest Virtual Airlines at http://www.swvirtual.net/

Who's who and what's what? Without getting into "my daddy can beat your daddy", I'm looking for some objective information:
Who's been around longer?
Who has the most pilots?
Who is the most active?
Things like that.

Once that's covered then give me some subjective info about why one might be better than another but, please leave egos and personalities out of it.

THANKS IN ADVANCE
