Ability to change out pilot/FA callout voices
-
I brought this up previously for the RJ/BAE, but would like to also specifically request it for the F28.
The default JF voice overs are lovely, but as someone who flies the F28 primarily up and down the eastern seaboard of the US, I do find myself wishing the voices could be made to be more regionally appropriate to the area.
Can you please add a feature allowing us to either replace the voices with our own voice packs -- my preferred option -- or provide an option to toggle between a few pre-made regional voice packs? I'd be happy to provide some voice talent from myself and some others to cover the American accent.
Failing that, if I can find someone who knows how to work with soundpack files who can allow me to do this as a mod, does JF have any issues with the soundpack being modded in this way?
Thanks!

Looks like this isn't something individuals can mod themselves since the voice tracks are embedded in the wwise .pck file. I spoke to a SME who said even if you use a tool to unpack the .pck you can't re-package it without the original wwise project files.
So, looks like this would have to come from your side, JF!

Appreciate so much that you continue to show the F28 love and I appreciate the last reply to this request was that it was being considered. The F28 obviously has just received a huge update which didn't include this feature based on the changelog and, with no further replies to this or additional discussion of it seen elsewhere, I wanted to float this back up to the top of the forum to ask again if it can please be implemented?
I also would love to know if this is already planned to be implemented in the F70/F100.

It is something we still have logged on our feature request list; however, sound updates weren't in the scope for the v2.2 update, so there have been no changes to the sounds.
The sound set for the F70 and F100 is still in active development, so I wouldn't like to confirm or deny a feature at this stage, as things may change ahead of release. If it is a feature at release, we'll be sure to list it in the product description and manual. If it's not a feature at release, it will already be on our feature request list for us to look into down the road.

Hi!
I know this thread is for F28 but as I think the issue is related I'll post it here.
I've just bought the RJ for MSFS2024 and all my experience is jumping on the runway with all systems on and perform a take-off. I was greatly surprised by having a copilot giving me callouts, however... I use to fly using a female copilot so the voice souded a little bit weird. Is it possible to select at least the vpice gente?

I was VERY excited to see this blurb from the latest F70/F100 announcement:
"When in Announcement mode, the 13 included announcements can be manually played via the controls on the player. If Auto Cabin Music is enabled, the cabin crew will also automatically play these announcements at various phases of flight. We have found this provides an ultra-immersive experience, especially during boarding when music is combined with “Welcome Onboard” announcements, as well as the Safety Briefing during pushback and engine start. The volume of the announcements and music in the cabin also varies depending on the cockpit door position. For users on a PC that have access to the aircraft folder structure, the announcements and music files are fully customisable, and can be replaced with your own custom tracks. Full details on how you can do that will be included in the F70 Professional and F100 Professional Operations Manual."
THANK YOU for adding this.
Two questions:
- Will this be backported from the F100 to the F28, BAE, and RJ in the future?
- Does this customization extend to replacing pilot callouts as well?
