VAICOM PRO plugin for VoiceAttack

[Silversmith]

Say, I get this WE real pimple from DCS and Perepherie ..

 

What is the logic behind VA / Vaicom? I learned the words "TACAN" "tune" and "Stennis" especially to the dictionary of Windows speech recognition. I have also had Win10's English language training run several times. Needless to say, I switched my entire system to English.

 

But when I say “TACAN tune Stennis” to Jester, he understands everything from “TACAN tune tennis” to “TACAN you and stennis” to !Attention!: “Tacan urine! Stennis ". (Note the English spelling!)

 

I understand that VA can have some problems with my Rhenish accent. But my English and American friends have never made me aware that I should have such a blanket in my mouth when I speak.

 

(Please report any translating issues promptly to google!)

 

I created an Alias in the Vaicom editor of 'Carrier' because it refused to recognise Stennis. Works a treat now (Tacan Tune Carrier)

Update is working fine for me also, the only thing is when I do a cold start and request ground power, etc. the ground crew response is inaudible. I exited out of VA and did a repair on DCS and the ground crew was audible. However, once I started VA then the problem reappears. Any ideas?

So in my case, would I have to use “urine” as an alias for “Tune”? My question was more about how VIACOM or Voice Attack evaluates what is spoken. It seems that it accepts everything impossible before it turns to the probable.

Okay folks version 2.5.16 is out, compatibility update for DCS 2.5.6 OB.

Let me know how it goes and thanks for your support :thumbup:

@Sofapiloz

Keywords training is key (pun alert).

Also you could just use the German recognition engine instead.

Dictionary translations are available: see link in first post of this thread.

Switch REDIR to off on the Audio tab.

For redirecting of audio use the DCS audio settings.

For unknown reasons, my DCS decided to stop using the DCS.openbeta folder in saved games and switch to just DCS after 2.5.6, fine, works for me. But VAICOM keeps using the open beta save game folder to place some files in.

 

I've manually copied over the files myself, but it's not something I want to keep doing.

 

How can I change this save game location in VAICOM? I only seem to find a place to switch the actual DCS install location.

DCS always halts at 10% - then I repair and run DCS without VA and it will then load.

 

Have this error still after updating VAICOM.

[sSkullZnBoneZz]

@Hollywood, thanks that did it.

Everything looking good on my end so far with 2.5.6.

I still have the freeze at 10%. I run repair and DCS loads, but not with VA. I have done full shut down and restart, repair and clen to DCS, still no joy; sorry!

THX Hollywood, works fine now!

[dawgie79]

Not me. No joy, DCS 2.5.6 keeps hanging at 10% when starting, even after the latest VAICOM update.

 

Have to repair and then don't use VC+VAICOM, otherwise it hangs again and needs to repair again as well.

Oh well. Going to wait untill things are more fleshed out, I'll use to comms menu for now.

[Japo32]

Same to me. Latest update and hang and 10%

[Svsmokey]

Thanks for the fast work ! In VR , i can't fly without V Pro , and i just tested your update in 2.6 .

Thanks for your quick work. I also had the audio redirect problem.

 

Unfortunately, by switching off the audio redirect, you get the chatter and JesterAI on the external speakers.

 

Is there a plan to remedy this?

 

Thanks

[Japo32]

Tried to remove the export.lua and VAICOMPRO folder from script and made a repair.. and it doesn't work.

It only work after making a repair and not using Vaicom.

Of course using 2.5.6 and the latest vaicom update. But no luck.

True that. Even though on my system VAICOM isn't working at the moment, I noticed I started talking anyway when using the radios, only to discover it won't work without VAICOM. :doh:

Thank you for the quick response as I have grown dependent on VAICOM for enjoying DCS World, especially with the F-14 Rio.

Here all works flawlessly with 2.5.6 and vaicom pro latest update. For people still having problems, maybe it is due to other mods (my only two external software in dcs are tacview and vaicom pro).

[Japo32]

No other mod here but simple radios which is not active while I run dcs...

[lxsapper]

Japo32 make sure to select the option O.B. for Vaicom. I think Vaicom will use the old structure for compatibility wih stable if you don't.

The on and off dialog issue disappeared with the update. For me the redirect is still reversed... setting to speakers in redirect goes to the rift s and setting to rift s goes to external speakers. I can give voice commands, but get no audible response from ground crew, or ATC, or anything for that matter. Ran a repair before the Viacom update and no more hangs at launch, but no idea how to fix the no audible response issue. Not running any addons.

Works for me in 2.5.6

No in game sound responses for me either. I can see there was responses recorded in the speech log window but no audio on any menu.

[Silversmith]

Finally bit the bullet and implemented DCS 2.5.6. since I couldn't get the updated VAICOM working with the old DCS 2.5.5 The VAICOM update worked perfectly with 2.5.6
