PACX and FS2Crew FBW A32NX Project at the same time?

I currently have FS2Crew for FBW A32NX and note that there are also cabin announcements (stewardess) for phases: before taking off, when reaching cruising altitude, before landing (on approach at 10,000ft) and after landing. Though may not intensive as PACX but I found acceptable, only disavantage is the announcements are just general (eg. not specific destination, outside temperature…), and no airline boarding music possible. I have seen on Obrx that PACX is on sale 40%, very attractive price!

I would like to know if anybody here is using PACX and FS2Crew simultanously in flight? If yes, how good are they working together? Is there any conflict (e.g cabin announcements overlap?..)

I have not used FS2Crew but I do have (and love PACX). Pretty neat that I can go on youtube and grab any airline safety announcement (for example Air Canada), convert it to a wav file (freely done online) and then add that into PACX and have the safety briefing play during pushback / taxi etc…

As for the “annoucements” like weather at destnation etc… I make them myself and then you hear it play back over the PA.

“Good evening Ladies and gentlemen, this is your Captain with a quick update from the flightdeck…” :slight_smile:

I use them at the same time. The announcements kick in at the very same time (PACX had a few more though, in flight etc.). I always mute one or the other, pending on which woman I like to take out on that particular flight. Works fine, no conflicts in software or anything.

Thanks! I also thought, even if there are problems with conflicts, I may also use PACX for other commercial aircrafts that FS2Crew not yet developed for them (e.g. upcoming PMDG 737, Fenix A320ceo…) :grinning:

They work fine together. I use both of them at the same time all the time. I just mute the FS2Crew cabin announcements so I can listen to the Pacx’s instead.

I just wish we can have a separate volume slider for custom cabin safety video. It’s difficult to normalise the loudness if the WAV file is already set for a certain volume but the actual cabin announcement is at a different loudness.
