This category is providing bug reports on issues with translated languages that have poor grammar, sentence structure, incorrect translation, or pronunciation.
As you know, one of the significant improvements we have made in MSFS 2024 is the localization of our speech into multiple languages. We are also using much more speech than we did in MSFS (2020), especially in the career mode and its various trainings and missions. Given the extensive amount of speech in the experience, it is not feasible to record it all. Therefore, we are utilizing Text-to-Speech (TTS) models to provide this content.
Feedback on TTS Speech Quality
We have received feedback that some of our TTS speech is not up to the mark, particularly in languages other than Chinese and English. Some issues are related to bugs, which we are addressing as quickly as possible. Other issues seem to be related to the quality of specific multilingual TTS models or the localized translation of the text itself.
Request for Your Help
We need your help to identify and fix these issues. Without native speakers to pinpoint these problems, it is challenging for us to address them effectively. Here is how you can assist us. Create a new post in this category and follow the provided instructions:
- Language: Select a language tag from the dropdown menu. If it does not exist yet, use other-language and indicate in your post which language it is, and we will create a new tag for you. We need the most help in the following lanugages:
- Area of Issue: Indicate where in the experience the issue occurs (e.g., specific career mission, training, Pilot ATC, etc.).
- Your Issue: Describe the nature of the problem. It could be poor grammar, sentence structure, incorrect translation, or pronunciation issues. The more detail you can provide, the better.
- Example: If possible, provide a screenshot or video of the issue. This is not required but would greatly help us understand and fix the problem.
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide. We are working hard to make the speech in FS 2024 as good as possible, and your assistance is greatly appreciated.
