The first version is here!

SimCom X ATCO Download here!

It's very much in Alpha stage and there are some features I've disabled on purpose, until I have the time to get them working correctly.

 

This version should have working:

COM1 and COM2 radios (for use with SimCom X Pilot)

Working ATIS (only COM1 station can have an ATIS)

Phone calls to other ATCOs

 

You will show on the main JoinFS map if you select SCX Mode in the CFG.

You won't if you select Group Mode, but the latest Group server will be needed.

 

Tips:

Type help in the chat for a list of commands.

Click the CFG button on first start to configure everything.

 

There will be bugs, let me know what they are so I can fix them.

A log file is located in ProgramFiles(x86)/SimCom X ATCO

 

I'll put a how to together when I get time.

 

Untill then please feel free to ask questions here or on the Matrix Chat rooms if you have Matrix.

Thanks Mike.

 

I could hear you during testing, but wasn't able to reply properly due to being busy.

 

I'll work on the Latch PTT buttons next and issue an update.

Version 0.0.0.4 released today.

Improvements made on the Audio selection screen.

PTT Latch buttons now working.

Search the DIR for the other ATCOs phone number.

Version 0.0.0.8 released today.

I've made a few changes to the way messages are sent, which should fix a number of glitches.

Voice coms with a pilot client and ATIS Should be fully working with no issues.

So let me know if they aren't.

Phone calls and Direct lines should also be working.

But I have noticed a delay with these, let me know.

The interface to display traffic on EuroScope or VRC is underway and shouldn't be too much longer.

Hello there!

I've been having issues connecting two computers via the group, it works intermittently and when it doesnt it stays looking for a connection. Firewall has been disabled and they both share a local network. Any ideas?

Hi Hola,

I'm still writing the ATCO client at the moment.

The version that's available at the moment isn't complete.

Are you able to share your log file anyway, I can then check I've covered the issue you're having.

That's the badger.

I think I changed they way I shared client details in the pilot client but not in the released ATCO client.

So at the minute Pilots can't speak to ATCOs.

ATCO clients should be able to connect to other ATCO clients.

Thank you so much for everything.

It all depends on how many books Mrs Roo has to read, whilst I have time to myself.

Although I will make the ATCO client a priority now in order to get things working again. I'll then slowly add the extra features.
