+++ Release update 2.5.3 +++ Greetings all, Plugin version 2.5.3 can now be downloaded: https://www.vaicompro.com/downloads.html This update includes - Revised lua code with various fixes (auto-updates), - Complete FA-18C support for use with Easy Comms ON and OFF, - Added aircraft carrier group ATCs for CVN-74 Stennis and CG-60 Normandy, - Native support for Persian Gulf theater ATCs. EXISTING VAICOM PRO USERS: - Your license data and speech recognition profile will remain unchanged during this update. - It is required you remove your existing plugin installation first: 1 If you want to keep a reference to your current database, use the csv export function. 2 If you don't want to download it again, first make a copy of your Chatter.dll file. 3 Use the RESET tab to clear current lua code and close VA. 4 Next remove your existing VAICOMPRO folder with all contents completely (from the VoiceAttack Apps subfolder). 5 Then proceed with regular plugin installation for 2.5.3, i.e. copy the new VAICOMPRO folder from the zipfile. 6 When done, start VA and go through the Reload/FINISH steps in the keywords editor to update your VA profile. *) *) There is currently a known VA issue (graphics bug) where the 'When I say' field shows blank. Ignore this and follow the normal steps i.e. Ctrl-A, Delete, Ctrl-V, and store with OK. - The plugin auto-installer will update the required lua code automatically. **) - If you are using manual install, follow the instructions on User Manual page 33. - Should you experience issues inspect the lua files and make sure any left-behind i.e. pre-2.5.3 code blocks are all properly removed. **) To check lua status, enable debug mode and inspect the log on VA startup showing 5 green OK messages. - Done. Happy flying! Hollywood

@Bluethornton Thanks I found the problem and the issue should be resolved with plugin 2.5.3 release.
-
If testing goes to plan plugin 2.5.3 will be available this weekend.
-
@Virus Just follow the FINISH steps i.e. Ctrl-A, Delete, Ctrl-V as described. The 'when I say' field in VA shows blank, this a known issue (graphics bug) but does not affect proper functioning. Store with OK when done.

+++ plugin 2.5.3 WIP +++ Guys Thanks for all your useful inputs. I'll be releasing plugin version 2.5.3 within the next two weeks. Until that time for 2.5.2 users: *) The Hornet currently works only with Easy Comms ON (not with OFF). *) You can use the 'Auto-import new theater' function (see manual) for the Persian Gulf map ATCs. *) Download and install the Chatter.dll, even if you don't use chatter (see post #632 thx@LhuanDula). Cheers Hollywood

Hey guys I was travelling to the other side of the world over the last two weeks i.e. max separation from my test system. When I'm back in I'm going to run a couple of checks and come back to you with an update. Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G960F met Tapatalk

I'm away at the moment and cannot do additional testing. If you are somehow experiencing issues with 2.5.2 you can check DCS.log to try identify the problem. Else clear your lua per post #575 and revert to 2.5.1, download bottom page https://www.vaicompro.com/downloads.html until the snag is identified. Grtz

@Sally No worries mate. @Fercyful You may want to have a look at your Windows Theme from the personalization menu. I have it looking OK here on a Win7 test machine but that is using a standard desktop theme. PM me if you need more help. Grtz

@Kristod @filthyman Let me get back to you on those. @all Plugin 2.5.2 works OK here during testing both with 2.5 Release an 2.5 OpenBeta version. If you are experiencing issues it's almost certainly your lua code that needs fixing. Close DCS and VA. Refer to page 33 of the User Manual and remove all VAICOMPRO lua code blocks you find in the five lua files mentioned. Then restart VA, this updates to the correct code automatically (if you're on a manual installation use the plugin export function instead). Hope this is helpful.
-
The download 2.5.2 zipfile contains a VAICOMPRO.dll file, use it to replace your current (2.5.1) VAICOMPRO.dll file in the VoiceAttack Apps folder.
-
OK thanks for letting me know. We'll get that sorted. I'll do some checks and come back with an update. EDIT: SSA works OK here during testing, PM sent. EDIT: Found a snag, now fixed.
-
@imacken The screenshot shows the auto-config doesn't find your DCS World installation path from Windows registry. Are you using a custom folder by any chance? PM sent. EDIT: Solved.

+++ Release update 2.5.2 +++ Dear users, Plugin update 2.5.2 can now be downloaded: https://www.vaicompro.com/downloads.html Existing (2.5.1) users: simply replace your current VAICOMPRO.dll with the new one. No need to reset the keyword database or anything else, data of existing installs (license data, speech recognition profile etc.) remains unchanged. The update includes various small changes and additions *) New lua code (auto-updated by the plugin) with bulk F10 menu support and improved SRS compatibility *) Audio hint for recipient micropause (awaiting additional input cue) to aid speech timing *) Added module J-11A *) Improved Steam recognition *) Exposed VA variables *) Code tweaks and minor fixes. Happy flying!

@blkspade What imacken says. The correct phrase to use is 'Bogey Dope', Keywords Reference table page 41. Alternatively you can use 'Request Vector to Bandit' or create your own alias in the editor. BTW if the AWACS unit e.g. Magic is already selected (or the only AWACS around) you don't need to use their callsign in each call i.e. instead of 'Magic,..Bogey Dope' you can simply call 'Bogey Dope' and it will automatically be directed to Magic. Hope this clarifies, catch me on PM if you need more help.

@Blacley Thx for the update. @blkspade Instead of 'Request Bogey Dope' just call 'Bogey Dope'.

Roger that - say hi to Chic from me Cheers Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G935F met Tapatalk

@Skunk Some added functionality was introduced in 2.5.1, you can check the user manual for details. @Blacley No. I had a problem with my inbox being full, you may want to resend your PM. @nholderness There are no issues with the plugin and Nevada theatre. The log lines shown do not point to any problem, they simply mean pilot voice is switched off in plugin Preferences. To be clear you will not hear Tonopah ATC pronounce their name/callsign: ED has not (yet) put in the ATC names as spoken phrases for Nevada and Normandy. Grtz

@mdee Can you test some more please and wait until you've seen the '(awaiting additional input)' message. [sOLVED] needed a bit longer pauses. @Blackley I'll PM you later. Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G935F met Tapatalk

Hi guys I'll get back to some of your questions - travelling for a few days atm. If you use your own additional commands make sure to use a TX node (e.g. TX6 AUX) for PTT as this updates the exposed variables such as module name. Grtz Verstuurd vanaf mijn SM-G935F met Tapatalk

Spudknocker vid @tribund PM sent. The one and only Spudknocker took VAICOM PRO for a spin the other day -nice!

There is no problem with VAICOM PRO and Nevada. You may want to test a bit more, PM me if you get stuck.

Thanks guys for all the nice comments [emoji106] @mosqui PM Sent. @Cain You may need to involve the Select command first: PM sent. @Gunner Great, thanks for updating. @t1mb0b Happy to look into it. I am curious though: why would you send different commands depending on player callsign? @tribundf Looks like you need to observe the 0,5 sec micropause between recipient and command, see page 15 of the manual. Have a look at post #497 by Gunnergolly and try take it from there, PM me if more help needed. @Baracuda The Hornet, hm, dunno... do you think people would be interested in that? :D Support for the FA-18C is already pre-baked in the plugin and it should (disclaimer) work from Day One. Groeten terug!

Hey Gunner Since the Select function works OK (in Nevada) this will be related specifically to your recognition of the Caucasus ATC names. I'm assuming Instant Select option is not selected in preferences. As suggestion in VoiceAttack options you can experiment with setting a higher value for Command Weight, i.e. try 90 or higher. Also if you haven't done so suggest to spend some time with Training Mode, focussing on ATC names and adding words to the speech dictionary if required. Have a look and let me know how it goes. Cheers
-
Thanks guys. @Steve that's because the keywords collection is a multipart command: you can expand/collapse the view by clicking on the symbol that resembles a horizontal line in the lower part of VA edit window. However the command content itself in the 'when I say' field will not change. That field's content relates to VAICOM PRO's keyword database and should only be changed following the FINISH steps from the keywords editor (see User Manual). Catch me on PM if you need more explanation.

Hey AbortedMan Bogey Dope is part of the 2.5.1 command set. If you're still on 2.5.0 you may want to update: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3433007&postcount=399 Cheers
