Brief description of the issue:
TTS mispronounces Mactan, Philippines.
Here is a video with a Filipino pilot pronouncing it.One way to fix this is to modify the applicable .locPak files as follows (note: I don’t think there is a way to get this one perfect – the first syllable is supposed to be shorter than this, but it sounds a lot better this way than it does without this change):
Line Current Value Suggested Value ATCCOM.AGENT_NAME MACTAN INTL.0.tts Mactan Moktohn ATCCOM.AGENT_NAME MACTAN.0.tts Mactan Moktohn ATCCOM.AIRPORT RPVM.0.tts Mactan Moktohn Please see the Screenshots section for how this sounds with the suggested changes.
Provide Screenshot(s)/video(s) of the issue encountered:
This is how the current pronunciation sounds:
This is how it sounds with the suggested pronunciation (again, as I said above, the first syllable should sound a little shorter than this, but it’s the best I could do after trying several variants):
Detailed steps to reproduce the issue encountered:
- Start Microsoft Flight Simulator.
- In the World Map, start a flight at RPVM. In the videos, above, I start cold and dark so that I can talk to Mactan Ground.
