FS2020 COM Volume to vPilot Volume

Application Image

What?

A simple tool synchronizing in-plane COM radio volume with vPilot output volume.

Why?

VPilot offers no possibility to directly adjust output volume when ATC or another pilot is speaking over VATSIM - only via the Settings panel.

How?

Fortunately, Windows OS can adjust output volume per application. This app gets the % of COM volume from FS2020 and sets it as a percentage of volume of VPilot in Windows Audio Mixing Panel.

Instalation

App is provided as ZIP file.

The newest releases are available at the Releases page. Simply download and unzip the release package to your custom folder.

.NET 6.0 Runtime is required to run the application (commonly installed on Windows OS by default).

Usage

For simple usage, just start the application using Com2vPilotVolume.exe.

The app automatically looks for and connects to FS2020 and also looks for vPilot running instance. If both were found, the app synchronizes FS2020 COM volume to vPilot volume via Windows Audio Mixing panel.

More Info

For more info about principle, implementation or configuration see Project Wiki.
