Tristan Garratt Posted October 15, 2019 at 07:30 AM Posted October 15, 2019 at 07:30 AM Hi. The standalone does not seem to work with Wine, nor does XPilot. Time to wait for XSB integration me thinks. Tristan Garratt VATPAC C1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Kelly 1448360 Posted October 15, 2019 at 08:26 AM Posted October 15, 2019 at 08:26 AM I have the same problem. I've heard that using swift works but it's a complicated process. I'm going to try it later so will let you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthony Mazetis Posted December 4, 2019 at 04:12 PM Posted December 4, 2019 at 04:12 PM I had been emailing with support on latest version of xsb for mac. It will connect to vatsim but it crashes xp11.36r2 when selecting usb audio choice. Running 10.13.06 OS High Sierra on 2009 Mac Pro 12 core 3.33Mhz. Probably time to just move on. Cheers!

Anthony Mazetis Posted December 5, 2019 at 03:00 AM Posted December 5, 2019 at 03:00 AM It’s kind of complicated for this ol’ man. Not sure where I didn’t get it right. Just hoping for a simple voice app similar to PilotEdge. Will try again! Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthony Mazetis Posted December 12, 2019 at 04:52 PM Posted December 12, 2019 at 04:52 PM Well I had to give up on this. I could not get this loaded correctly. Not sure what happened. I followed step by step install but missed something. I get no audio. I guess I need to go with PilotEdge. Their app is simple and works pretty easy.

Alan McDonley Posted December 14, 2019 at 02:32 AM Posted December 14, 2019 at 02:32 AM Hi, any idea regarding the possibility to have voice comm fot us Mac users ?Thanks I managed to get Swift/xswiftbus 0.9.3.xxx430 ("alpha") running on 2018 MacMini, Mojave 10.14.6, USB mic input, displayport output, X-Plane11.41r1 with ctrl-v hotkey mapping. It was not turnkey, but managed. Perhaps list your exact system config to get started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Mazetis Posted December 14, 2019 at 02:24 PM Posted December 14, 2019 at 02:24 PM Good Day! My system is old....2010 Mac Pro 2x3.33 Ghz 6-Core Intel Xeon - 32GB 1333MHz DDR3 - 2TB NVMe HD - Radeon RX580 8GB I use Corsair Void PRO RGB USB Wireless Headset. OS High Sierra 10.13.6 - XP11.40 First not really sure which version to use... but from your reply its Swift/xswiftbus 0.9.3.xxx430 Alpha. So is it Swift and xswiftbus or xswiftbus stand alone. If I recall it wanted me to download a Windows app too. This old man is just trying to figure this out... Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Sandiford 1424826 Posted December 14, 2019 at 06:56 PM Posted December 14, 2019 at 06:56 PM I guess I need to go with PilotEdge. Their app is simple and works pretty easy. That’s what I did, you’ll be very happy with the money spent. This whole VATSIM audio Mac thing has left a sour taste in a lot of people’s mouths. It’s good to see some developers still trying to get it up and going, but as one person said rather arrogantly to me on another forum. Mac users simply don’t count. So come join the rest of the refugees on pilotedge! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhruv Kalra Posted December 14, 2019 at 07:43 PM Posted December 14, 2019 at 07:43 PM There is a perfectly functional XSquawkBox Beta available for all platforms if you don’t want the h[Mod - Happy Thoughts]le of setting up swift. I’m not sure why everyone is still slamming the powers that be for shutting out Mac users when the software options are now available.

Anthony Mazetis Posted December 15, 2019 at 03:34 AM Posted December 15, 2019 at 03:34 AM I tried XSquawkBox and have worked with support via email. XSquawkBox and XP11.40 crashes when I select my mic for my usb headset. Maybe my system is too old. i’m not sure. I had tried using Pilot Edge before and it just didn’t work out for me. I’m not sure who is slamming who... leave me out of it. Maybe XSquawkBox will come up with a fix or maybe I will figure out Swift. I guess it’s back to the beginning for now.
