vSpeed callouts for the HotStart Challenger 650

[Tom Stian]

Hi all

I made a vSpeed callout LUA-script for the HotStart Challenger 650 if anyone are interested.

It requires HotStart Challenger 650 v1.2 or higher.

Take a look here:

I must be missing something. I don't hear anything. I did the install (confirmed the file and the folder is in my scripts folder) but did not tweak any settings in the LUA file. I understood the instructions to only warrant editing the file if you wanted V2 & positive rate (everything else was 'automatic'). I have my speeds entered but just silence. Did ya'll change the default volume sound? Is the sound impacted by wearing or not wearing the headset inside the aircraft?

It should not impact if you are using the headset or not in the CL650. 

You should only need to change the settings if you want to enable V2 callout.

So you dont get the "80  knots" callout either?

Have you installed Challenger 650 1.2.2 or newer?

If Flywithlua has a bad script it will stop every scripts you have. can you check if you see a red message in the top right corner of your screen that says "LUA has stopped" or something.

I dont know what volume sliders that controlls the sounds from lua scripts, but can you test with setting all the volume sliders to max?

I have 1.2.2 as well and can’t hear anything. No call out at all, Lua has not stopped and it is not quarantined

Can you DM me your log.txt in your x-plane folder so I can take a look at it ? 

you also @softreset if you can.

v0.102 is now available.

totoritko has kindly provided me with wav files of his voice for my callout script.

 

[Tom Stian]

v0.103 is now available.

- Minor tweak to the "positive rate, gear up" callout. Its now based on altitude and vertical speed. It was previous only based on altitude.

Tried this out today works great thanks for this. 

Is it not possible to make the copilot say "gear up" when I retract the gear?

At the risk of hijacking a thread, I can give you code for that Tom if you want?
I have a similar script that started for the 767 with that kind of functionality. DM us if you want.

[Pops McDaddyo]

Thank you very much for creating this!  It's working great and I really like hearing the callouts.  Very cool! 

[FYG001]

Thanks Tom, great addition - love it
