I have used Rc4 for years, and can control the speed of ATC delivery with a slider.
Alos in Rc4 there is vital info ATC just gave left on RC4 window in fsx. Both those help to keep up with the instructions without being on edge.

Is there a way to slow down ATC and also looking for a way to stop the window dissapearing so quickly after instructions are given, so that i can still read any info i missed from the pop window.

Currently i am having to press pause and ATC repeat key a ridculus amount of time to be able to handle the part of apparoch where you get runway and vectors in same message. Hardly ever needed to do that in Rc4 all the years i used it. Cause What info you miss is left on the pop window.

The flying is fun, the voice sets is wow, but this game of trying to keep up with ATC is not fun. Looking for anyway to slowdown ATC or delay/control pop window info closing.

Cheers

Does this help (taken from the user guide)

8.56 'Say Again' Display
Version 2.12 adds another new feature to display a log showing the last 10 ATC com's to you. This new feature is used in conjunction with, or instead of, the 'Say Again' option. We call this the 'ATC Say Again' window
This new feature will be of no use at all if you only have the one monitor screen and run in fullscreen mode. The minimum requirements for using this new feature are two monitors, which can either be on the same pc or two different pc's. This new display is part of the PFE process and so can only be shown on a monitor connected to the pc on which PFE is running.
To activate the 'Say Again' ATC window you need to configure the PFE INI file.
See section 7.3.3 Say Again ATC Log for further details

I don't know if my memory is getting worse as I get older...
...I just can't remember how it used to be!

Thanks for the quick reply, looks like just the thing i am looking for.

You got a great product here, if comparing to rc4, but could make a lot more sales by cleaning it up so its easier to use, the functiionality is perfect as it is.

I mean getting rid of pf2000, maybe add slider to menu for ATC speed and this log thing.

By the way i dont feel guilty for not spotting this stuff on page 99 in the manual, just in case you were wondering.. :D

short cut to manual on desktop.

Thanks

Happy New Year.
