Bushtalk Radio
Bushtalk Radio is a community driven project with the aim to fill the world of MSFS with thousands of interesting landmarks and POIs. Each landmark has a unique audio tour that is automatically played based on your in-game location.

We have audio tours for all in-game POIs (including Japan and USA update) as well as thousands of community created content with more being added every day: national parks, forests, islands, active volcanoes, historical battles - there's something for everyone.
Users can add custom locations and write their own audio tours. Just write an interesting, witty script and we'll create the audio tour for you. Not the creative type? Autogenerate one with our Wikipedia Import tool, we won't judge you. We want to introduce players to amazing locations around the world. Add them as part of your next bush trip or fly aimlessly and stumble into something special.
This addon allows you to connect to Bushtalk Radio from inside your cockpit. Users of the old external client should upgrade to this instead.
Geting started with Bushtalk Radio
- Make an account at https://bushtalkradio.com and log in. Make sure this browser window stays open (do not minimise it) as the audio tours are played through your browser in the background. If you're having issues autoplaying tours, read this.
- Download this client and drag and drop the folder into your Community folder
- Download Bushtalk Radio Landmarks pack and drop the folder into your Community folder. This will allow you to see the POIs in-game and will be updated monthly with the latest community submissions. This isn't mandatory but it helps.
- Once in your cockpit, open the Bushtalk Radio client from your cockpit toolbar and log in. You are now tuned in to Bushtalk Radio. You can minimize or close the client and it will continue tracking in the background
- Look for places you want to explore on our website, we tell you the most convenient airport to depart from, or make your own bush trip! The audio tours will play automatically as you approach a landmark.

I love the idea! How can I support the project?
Help us by creating as many high quality landmarks with well written audio tours. You can also help by promoting the project to fellow flightsimmers. Finally, if you really love what we're doing then help us pay for server costs. Any amount is welcome.
Is there a way to remember credentials when I first start the sim?
Navigate to the file: bushtalkradio-client\html_ui\InGamePanels\BushtalkClient\CustomPanel.js
Open in notepad
Add your credentials in between the double quotes as instructed

Realy great add-on for MSFS 2020. I enjoy it very much and use it everytime. Also the feature of tuning in an music radio frequency gives it a thumbs up and a smile on my face.
The sound of the lady who is telling about the poi's could be a litte louder, especially if you view the surroundings outside the cockpit. Then the engine noice overruns the voice of the narrator and it's hard to follow, even with my headphones on.

Submitting interface is a mess, You really put effort in an article and then its deleted in the form. Daily limit is really annoying. A lot of airports missing.

Its a normally a great mod but now the limitations did become just ridiculous. First you could publish five landmarks per day for free (which was already on the low side) and now its only two per day (which is just not enough). Why?

Hey thanks for the feedback, I understand the frustration but we had to add a daily limit because we pay for each audio generation and these costs were getting out of control due to the number of submissions. We want to keep BTR free and the best compromise we could think of is to let free users submit 2 POIs every 24 hours. Patreons can submit unlimited POIs and create Collections.
Let me know if you have any suggestions or any other feedback.
Kind regards

I have a suggestion. I would like to be able to stop the audio. I use this in VR and there's just no method to stop the information. Sometimes it's too much information and sometimes the previous POI is still ongoing as I approach the next POI and in that case I don't get any information about the upcoming POI. Maybe there could be player controls on the toolbar panel in VR?

+1 it absolutely needs this!

Okay - loaded up the latest update and did a very quick check. Sim loaded okay and I was able to start a flight. As it was late here in UK didn't test thrpoughly but carrying on with a planned tour flight later which should give it a workout. Will post back here if any problems.

Since upodate 5, it does not work anymore for me. As soon as I log in, I lose all control over my plane. The program does not crash but I can no longer control my plane.

Thanks for the report. Could you try this client update and let me know if the issue persists? Thanks
Terrylawdinn
SU5 2nd hotfix (v1.18.15) Opening the in-sim window causes the sim to freeze. Removing from Community Folder all okay.
I do enjoy getting local info on my travels around the world - any chance of a fix?
Thankyou in anticipation.

Hey! Thanks for the report. Could you try this latest client update and let me know if the issue persists? Thanks

Small compatibility issue with FS2020 update 5 : the BT logo is not displayed anymore in the menu. Also it seems it is necessary to click on this button every flight to activate the connection (before, it started automatically if the credentials are set)
Bushtalk 2 month(s) ago
Thanks for the report. We're investigating this and will you give you an update once I found a fix

Absolutely amazing add-on. Completely changed the way I use MSFS. Touring the world, hopping from POI to POI has been more fun than I've ever had with the simulator. Adding new POIs is also a really rewarding experience, especially when you see them visited by other users.

Some quick technical musings:
The add-on works very well for me on SU5. The only super minor issue I've found is that no icon is displayed in the toolbar when the client is installed (not sure if this is expected). Either way, just a cosmetic issue as you can still click the button and log in.
Also, it would be really cool if the login was persistent. The workaround by editing the add-on's files works really well, but I could definitely see users who are less techy have problems with that. I assume this is down to MSFS's add-on API, though, and their support for persistence in web views, so perhaps no easy fix. Is there any way we can petition Asobo on that? It seems like a pretty important tool to have in the arsenal of add-on devs.

Hey bob, thanks for all the super useful feedback. I'm aware of the icon issue but haven't found a way to fix it yet. You're also right about being able to persist in the credentials, hopefully we can improve this in the future too.
Please consider joining our discord too, would love to hear more of your feedback: https://discord.gg/ZcGgw9mUqA

Really amazing. I would like to see some more options for local radio. I am using it mainly for immersing myself in the local culture, but I often struggle to scroll in the local radio list. Perhaps a scrollbar would be useful in the web view?
Furthermore, it would also be nice to keep up the information related to the radio station.
Bushtalk 2 month(s) ago
Hey, thanks for the feedback. We'll look at adding this in the next update as it should be doable.

Wonderfull app that gives us many new ideas of flights.
Thank you for creating this and also thank the community that create description contents.
Maybe i can share one tip with BT users :
SeiferLizardKing
You made my game! This is incredible!

I just realised it would be great if the radio would revert to the previously-played station after playing an article.

Wow..... This is fun and immersive. 5 stars from me!!!
