Communication Problem

When I am flying on Vatsim I use vpilot to connect and talk.

When I mouse click outside of vpilot, on the instrument panel the controller does not hear me until I click on vpilot again.

The tx button in vpilot does not light up when I press my push-to-talk button until I mouse click in vpilot window.

Is there any way to change this?

Thanks

Paul

Are you running vPilot as administrator?

From the vPilot Tips, Tricks, FAQ and Troubleshooting Guide:

 

Q: I can hear others and my mic has no problem, but whenever I try to transmit with my PTT, I need to switch to the vPilot window in order to transmit successfully. If I try to attempt to transmit inside the simulator without switching to vPilot, the TX in the top right corner of vPilot window is not highlighted and I cannot transmit.

A: That's the number 1 symptom that indicates that you are not running vPilot as an administrator. If you run FSX/P3D as an administrator, you must run vPilot as an administrator.

How do I run as administrator? VPilot and FSX?

Disregard. I got it running as administrator and it works perfect.
