These instructions are meant for Windows XP sp2. If you are like me, then you probably let Flightgear install into your local drive and into program files by default. | |||
1. Download fgcom from this link: http://emmerich-j.de/FGFS | |||
2. Save the file into your Flightgear folder in program files. Extract the files into the same Flightgear Folder. | |||
3. Now, the tricky part: Open a Command window by going to [Start] then click [Run]. Type 'cmd' and press ok. | |||
A black command window will appear and if everything is by default should say something like (Zexe is my username): | |||
C:\Documents and Settings\Zexe> | |||
4. We need to change the path. So type (by the way, 'cd' equals change directory) : | |||
C:\Documents and Settings\Zexe>cd c:\program files\flightgear | |||
5. Press [Enter] | |||
6. Now it should read: | |||
C:\Program Files\Flightgear> | |||
7. For the finale, type: | |||
C:\Program Files\Flightgear>fgcom -sfgcom.flightgear.org.uk | |||
8. Press [Enter] | |||
and fgcom will start. Keep the black window open. | |||
9. You must now configure the settings from Flightgear. So, open Flightgear the application and please refer to | |||
http://wiki.flightgear.org/index.php/FGCOM . Look at 6) Input/Output, and basically copy what is there. | |||
10. By the way, [Space] is the default key to speak through. | |||
11. Once all is swell, close the Advanced box and make sure the [Show command line] box shows what you edited, then click run. If you are lucky, you will hear some people on FGcom. | |||
***Some planes already use the [Space] function for other things***You must configure your keybindings if you want to use Fgcom and the plane together.*** | |||
