VAICOM PRO plugin for VoiceAttack

[Japo32]

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.

 

I did that, and didn't work. In my case even beeing a openbeta in saved games folder it is as DCS folder (no DCS.openbeta one), so I have to switch off the OB option.

In any case, I removed all my DCS saved games folder and let rebuilt it by DCS but no luck. Still 10% stuck.

Only fixed after repairing.

 

There was no problem in 2.5.5

[speed-of-heat]

if you had the 10% problem in the past, have you tried repairing DCS?

[Japo32]

Maybe I didn't explain correctly.

 

Previous 2.5.6 I had no problem with Vaicom and DCS. Non 10% issue.

With this 2.5.6 I only tested vaicom with the update and since then, all I have is 10% issue even removing all the DCS user/save games folder.

 

of course I have to make a repair in DCS, each time I run vaicom and lot load it, to pass that 10%

With Vaicom is impossible to make it run.

[Wolf359]

Same here. I am unable to use Voice Attack/Vaicompro in 2.5.6. Hangs at 10%. I have to run repair and NOT open VA at all in order to run 2.5.6 successfully.

After further testing I have an issue that perhaps someone can assist me with? After the dcs 2.5.6 update and the Viacom latest update that overcome the compatibility problem I’m left with no audio responses to any radio calls. I have deduced that the fault is with dcs as I have run DCS without Viacom and out of VR and whilst I can hear the pilots voice when using the F menus, I can’t hear any response associated with the radio call. Which is mirroring what happens when I use my own voice in Viacom.

 

Is there something missing file wise? I’m a bit stumped so anyone got any ideas?

[gonvise]

Same.

 

1. Hangs 10%

2. Update VAICOM

3. Repair DCS

4. Launch DCS... works.

5. Quit DCS, Launch VAICOM, Launch DCS, Hangs 10%

[speed-of-heat]

damn! just tested this again, I get exacty the same symptoms now on 2.5.6 hangs at 10% again ...obviously i was testing this all in one session yesterday!

[Wolf359]

Same.

 

1. Hangs 10%

2. Update VAICOM

3. Repair DCS

4. Launch DCS... works.

5. Quit DCS, Launch VAICOM, Launch DCS, Hangs 10%

 

Yep, I just did the same.

What worked for me was to delete the VAICOM export lua in Saved Games, do a lua Reset via the VAICOM utility, close VA, repair DCS, restart VA and DCS and after that it works fine for multiple starts.

I'm having the same trouble and its not just the audio responses. I suspect it is a DCS problem. I think AI is running the commands since if I make an inbound call to ATC I get no voice or text response, but reopening the communication menu it opens to the post-inbound submenu. It is, however, intermittent. Ground crew is responding, for example.

Excellent. I will try this when I get home this evening.

[cdjung1]

I did the lua reset and restarted. Still no audible reply to commands in DCS. This is true even when using the “\” command. DCS responds to commands but the audio replies are gone.

Switch REDIR to off on the Audio tab.

For redirecting of audio use the DCS audio settings.

That did not work for me.

DCS World 2.5.6 is still getting stuck at 10% on loading.

I noticed an update for VAICOM today, but that did not fix the issue.

 

 

Running DCS World without VA and VAICOM has no problems.

Not so sure it’s a dcs issue now! I ran another test with no Viacom or VR and this time I did get a response from DCS. Switched to Viacom in VR and but no response. I switched on sub titles in dcs audio to check the transmissions I made where being received. Frustrating!

Thanks, solved my 10% issue

I am not flying VR, but I am getting responses fine (or at least as consistently as before.....)

[USA_Recon]

Has there been a hotfix for VAICOM yet - just curious - thanks!

 

(I've turned it off until there is a fix)

[WOPR]

With VAICOM PRO 2.5.16 running, and DCS 2.5.6 and audio redirect enabled, probably my favorite feature,

 

 

I get the following error message in the DCS log file when loading is stuck at 10%

2020-02-17 20:34:23.506 ALERT Dispatcher: Error starting Game GUI: [string "./Scripts/UI/gameMessages.lua"]:30: module 'lentaMessages' not found:

 

 

 

with audio redirect NOT enabled, DCS loads fine.

Unfortunately didn't work for me.

That fixed the issue! thanks! :thumbup:

 

Edit: no.. it is not working. I was mistaken. It saved the new export.lua in a different folder.. When I realized that it was not the right folder it again stucks in 10%

Right now Vaicom is working for me, but like others I'm not getting responses from AI, this is audio responses only, as I get onscreen text responses (with that option enabled). With Jester AI I still get both audio and text confirmation, this is only happening with other units like Tankers ATC etc. Not sure if it's a Vaicom issue or DCS, have to test.

[Japo32]

Reply again here to say that no, it is not working the reset of the LUA code Still stuck in 10%

Does this mean I am going to loose this good plugin? as I saw that there was not reply about this from Hollywood. Hope not, because the only difference between when it was working and now it is the new update (of dcs and vaicom)

First of all Hollywood just did an update like 24 hours ago.

I had the no sound problem until I turned off audio redirect and then it worked fine.

 

Make sure the DCS version is 2.5.6 before applying the new patch for Viacom. The steam version rolled back to 2.5.5

Please, give people time. Its been barely 1 working day. They will solve it probably soon.
