Has anybody got a theory about how this can be possible? Skickat från min D5503 via Tapatalk

Does anyone else got problems with words that have been added to Windows Speech Dictionary beeing recognized with good procentage by Voiceattack without the keywords beeing recognized by VAICOM? I also have a wierd situation with the word "ford" beeing recognized with a green dot by Voiceattack with 100% but the command for "Forde" is beeing recognized and executed by VAICOM with 99%. I have added "ford" to the Windows Speech Dictionary. Skickat från min D5503 via Tapatalk

I also still get the error when starting 1.5 and 2.2

Thank you! I will use it with your corrected speeds and if I should wreck my viritual Harrier because of it, I wont hold you responsible :) Skickat från min D5503 via Tapatalk

Im no Harrier expert so one thing that is a struggle for me is to know what takeoff-type that is possible with the current load and winds in a mission when the mission start. I cant find so much in the pocket guide about when a certain takeoff-type is possible and how to calculate nozzle rotation speed for short takeoffs. Im basically doing it by trial and error now, with no clue when to rotate the nozzles for example on short takeoffs. So Im thinking that a Excel-chart where you enter your weight and winds and get this information as output would be awesome. However I don't know how to do it myself so this is kind of a wish to someone that knows enough about the Harrier and Excel to do it. I would love to see it in the user files on the DCS site.

Can someone explain how the buttons in the Keywords editor are supposed to be used? Add new and delete I understand but I dont understand what revert, apply and reload does. They are not explained in the manual. How do you other guys manage to get the Georgian and Russian airfields recognized? Do you just train them in the Keywords editor or do you add new words for them in the keywords editor like perhaps Kabuleti and Kutasi? Or do you add them in the Windows word dictionary? Has anyone managed to get Novorssiysk recognized? I mean, I could do without that one, It just strikes me like a word that simply can not be recognized by a english speech engine.

Im Swedish so I probably have some accent, but that has not been a problem with my own profiles. Skickat från min D5503 via Tapatalk

Trust me I have done that. Skickat från min D5503 via Tapatalk

Obviusly I have Instant Select by the way, having to say Select every time I want to talk to a different recipient makes the whole thing very undynamic and unacceptable for me. In a air combat I with my own profiles I can rapidly issue commands to my whole 4 ship, for example "two pincer left" "three radar on" "four pincer right" and then request picture from AWACS with no problems. Having to say "Select two" "Select three" and so on between is not possible, there is no time. I mean if I just have talked to AWACS and suddently need to have my wingmen cover me I must remember to use the Select command before I ask for help in a probably urgent situation. I cant have it like that. That is why I have Instant Select ticked in the options, because it cant be used without it as I see it. Skickat från min D5503 via Tapatalk

How is the training mode supposed to work exactly? As I understand it you are supposed to click on the square mic button and then the round one on the Windows Speech Recognition that pops up so it says listening, and then you select the keyword you want to train and then you say it. And then you pick another keyword and say that. Is this correct? For me this works like this, if I say Batumi it is not recognized by VAICOM eventough it is by Windows Speech Recognition. This causes the later to type batumi again in the box for the keyword, so it becomes batumi batumi. And then its game over I guess, because then you are now training the engine that Batumi means batumi batumi. If I then erase one batumi the same thing repeats when I try to get it recognized by VAICOM. And if it does not hear batumi but instead "up to me" it enters that instead as a replacement for the keyword Batumi completly and then it almost does not recognize anything anymore so all I can do is to factory reset VAICOM.

After spending this entire sunday trying to get some reliability out of VAICOM PRO Im about to give up. I was hoping to get the same enjoyment out of it like everyone else seems to be getting, but now its the same as when I tried WAICOM 2.0, total disapointment. In case someone cares and has the same issues, here are my problems: 1. If it recognizes "for return to base" it executes "flight return to base" instead of "four return to base". This is so bad and destroys the mission, "for return to base" is not even a valid command, still it executes a flight command. If it hears something followed by "request vector" for example it executes that command for the closest recipient instead of returning a unrecognized cue and giving the user the chance to repeat the right airport. I guess this is a feature to make things easy but instead it makes it highly unreliable. You can always say "articulate better" its almost imposible to make a difference between "for" and "four". 2. Words like Kutaisi and Kobuleti are imposible to get recognized, even if I add them in the Windows Speech Recognition Wordlist it still never gets recognized in the keywords training mode at all. In DCS they can get recognized some times though, when VAICOM PRO recently has been reset to factory settings. After a short time though it is imposible to get any recognition in DCS either. 3. The keywords training mode doesnt work at all. From what I can read from the manual I should be able to select a word like Kutaisi for example and get somekind of recognition response % when I pronounce it. This does not ever happen, I get no response at all eventhough Windows Speech Recognition is listning. The wierd thing is that this happens right after I have gotten it recognized sometimes at least in DCS. When I read the manual about how it is supposed to work it sounds so well but frankly Im seeing very little that matches the description. After the disapointment with VAICOM 2.0 I made my own profiles that uses the menus and that are far from as dynamic as VAICOM PRO promises to be. But they are reliable. Are the problems that Im describing something that is normal for VAICOM PRO and something that you just have to live with? I want to use it and get rid of the menus but if its like that I can just as well go back to my own profiles again because I cant have it like this. With all this unreliability there simply is no way it can work in a JTAC dialog for example, it will only ruin the experience. Should I give up now? Is there any point to try some more and are there ways of getting it to work as described in the manual? Skickat från min D5503 via Tapatalk

A question, where is the VAICOM PRO keywords database stored? If you train the system in the keywords editor is it then possible to backup copy it. It cant be the same as the Windows Speech Recognition wordlist right? Im asking because I had to reset VAICOM because almost no commands where recognized anymore, I think I made a mistake and mis-trained the engine somehow Skickat från min D5503 via Tapatalk

Another question: Is it possible that VAICOM PRO is in conflict with Tacview somehow? I had to do a new install of Tacview to get it to work after I installed VAICOM PRO, then I updated the dll for VAICOM PRO and now Tacview does not record again. Skickat från min D5503 via Tapatalk

Whatever they choose I hope they do a full module of the J-35 Draken in a not to distant timeframe. They are doing the AI version so they already have started and it was used by more Austria, Sweden, Finland and Denmark so it should be pretty popular. I have seen some people asking for a JA-37 and a JAS-39 Gripen, i would settle just fine with a J-35 because I find it more interesting because it was a unforgiving aircraft to fly. The visual intercept command system that the later versions had would be a new fun feature in DCS (would not have to be working in early access though). And I guess it would not need the same amount of development time. I dont think anything about it is classified either. That said, i dont want to spoil your F-111 bombing but I was just hoping they could "wrap up" the J-35 parallell to some other project if it is not their next one.. :) Skickat från min D5503 via Tapatalk

Updating the plugin means only replacing the .dll right? Or does the lua-files have to be edited as described in post #163 also? Skickat från min D5503 via Tapatalk

Im also confused why there is a limit for three downloads after you bought the license key when you can download it from the webpage before you even bought it. Skickat från min D5503 via Tapatalk

Is this correct? Do you have to have DCS installed on C: for VIACOM 2.5 to work? In that case there is no point for me to buy it because there is no way I can fit DCS on my C: Skickat från min D5503 via Tapatalk

Hello! Does anybody know what kind of switches are used for the speedbrake, boatswitch and chinahat. They are not the same type as the switches on the base, I have found those on the internet but they have bigger conical levers. The kind used for the speedbrake, boatswitch and chinahat have smaller levers but the seem to have the same thread for the mounting hole (12mm). Have anyone found these kind of switches on any electronics site on the internet? I can not find them anywere. Skickat från min D5503 via Tapatalk

Yes It has been like that since the beginning, I havent heard them say that they will fix it but I thinking that they must be planning fix it because it is kind of a in your face thing that cant really be missed. Skickat från min D5503 via Tapatalk

I use joy2key for this to but I only use that and have it set up so it presses the buttons 20 times per second. Skickat från min D5503 via Tapatalk

Im not building a full cockpit for a specific aircraft actually. Since I fly different aircraft I dont see the need for it, specially if I get VR sometime in the near future. It will be a kind of closet for my seat that I already have built, I use it now in front of my desk, therefore I have to have shelfs attatched to it on both sides for my HOTAS so I cant have anything on the left side now. If i get it in my planned "closet-setup" I can add the switch Im asking about, maybe I will add the lever for the harness aswell. The closet will both protect my seat, HOTAS and other stuff at the same time as it will make the apartment look more normal (my girlfriend thinks this is a good thing). My seat is not a exakt Mk 14 copy, but it is highly Martin Baker influenced. I was thinking of the two switches because It would give one more switch to map to stuff in DCS. But I dont want to add a switch that I dont know what it is for so I will only do one. I cant imagine why there are two switches on those pictures. The pdf you posted was good, i didnt know there where versions of the Mk 14 with the seat hight switch on the right side behind the manual release handle. Skickat från min D5503 via Tapatalk

It can be seen in this image, i dont know what aircraft the seat is from. There is two switches in the box where the seat hight switch is, the box also seems to be bigger than normal. The seat in your image seems to have one switch. Skickat från min D5503 via Tapatalk

Hello This may be a very nerdy question, but Im asking because Im doing a cockpit build. On some images of the Martin Baker Mk 14 NACES seat there seem to be two switches where the one seat hight adjustment switch normaly is. I assume that one is the seat hight adjustment switch but does anybody know what the other one is used for? It cant be the harness reel because that lever is behind it.

Im no skinner, but I use these for Yaks that I have flying around Vegas: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/2410982/ https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/1683730/ https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/1683284/ Skickat från min D5503 via Tapatalk

Its good to have the option to turn them off obviously, but I hope they also will be fixed so they function like real mirrors like in the F15 for those that have computers that can cope with it. As they are now they only reflect the skybox. Skickat från min D5503 via Tapatalk
