dawgie79 Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 (edited) How does one use the F10 import to re-import custom commands from a mission? Accidently deleted one special command added by a mission, now it won't re-add it. How can I do this manually? Tried resetting the keywords, then restarting the campaign/mission, no luck. It just won't add them again. Other missions work fine with import. Edited August 30, 2019 by dawgie79 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greyman Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 If you can, maybe try changing the name of the mission file in question, just in case VAICOM Pro keeps a list of missions that it has imported and it is that which is stopping it being reimported. If it does maintain a list, it might use an identifier other than the file name, but it's worth a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollywood_315 Posted August 30, 2019 Author Share Posted August 30, 2019 @dawgie Try with what @Greyman says, for a hard reset you could delete the Database subfolder and restart. @jason Thanks dude, if you get stuck update messages best to grab the latest dll files from the website and replace them manually. Regarding the comms audio routing that can get a bit involved with stuff like VoiceMeter in between, may take some additional testing. You can e.g. try with routing Redirect to (Default) and then change your Windows default audio device. There is no spoon.

dawgie79 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 (edited) It's a mission from a campaign, first mission Eastern Friendship for the F/A-18C. So don't know if renaming breaks the campaign, so I'm gonna try deleting the database subfolder (after backupping it ofc). Thanks gents. :) edit: Both renaming as well as a hard reset (i.e. deleting database subfolder) didn't work.

Greyman Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 are you copying the updated commands list into the profile, as per the Import F10 section of the manual, on page 19. If memory serves me right, that involves pressing the "FINISH" button, which copies the commands list to the clipboard, and then pasting the results back into the VP profile. "Importing F10 Menus Some missions make use of the ‘Other’(F10) menu for special commands. If in Preferences the option ‘Import F10 Menus’ is enabled the F10 menu items will be added to the keyword database. The imported keywords cannot be used immediately, the updated keywords list must first be added to the VA profile. See Keywords Editor section in the Configuration Window chapter." sorry if you've done this, but i thought it worth asking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawgie79 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 (edited) Did that too, yes, but only the first time which was the time it did work, before my accidental delete. After the first time it doesn't even import it, so nothing to finish. :) EDIT: and then, suddenly, out of the blue, VAICOM just imported the F10 items again. So problem solved, kinda. ;) Edited September 1, 2019 by dawgie79 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirin Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 I just recently got back into DCS. Got a new rig - installed everything a new and wanted to try out the F-14 along with VAICOM PRO. I used VP in the past very successfully. Setup was painless and the basic functions work. Voice Attack does recognize the module. Extented Command Set is enabled. AIRIO is enabled. But I cannot get Jester to answer to my calls... see screenshot... Help is needed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alt-Ctrl-C to open VAICOM window, tab Editor, click the mic and there you go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the first time it doesn't even import it, so nothing to finish. :) Maybe let me know which mission/campaign it was that holds the missing command(s) and i could load it and let you have a copy of the resulting string? You would then have to correctly identify the missing bit(s) of your string and copy/paste them from my version into yours. Not guaranteed to work, but it might be worth a try, as long as i have that mission of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks mate, but no need, because of some miracle tonight it suddenly decided to import the F10 commands, so all good again now. Again, thanks for your help mate.

Will import f10 pull in the menu keywords or is some other action required to enable those f10 menus in viacomm? Yeah, I have it set up and it's pretty cool. You need to import the F10. It's briefly described in the VAICOM manual. However, there is one catch. The F10 airboss menu has to be always in the same place as you have exported it, i.e. it requires always same F-key sequence so to speak. A warrior's mission is to foster the success of others. i9-12900K | MSI RTX 3080Ti Suprim X | 128 GB Ram 3200 MHz DDR-4 | MSI MPG Edge Z690 | Samung EVO 980 Pro SSD | Virpil Stick, Throttle and Collective | MFG Crosswind | HP Reverb G2 RAT - On the Range - Rescue Helo - Recovery Tanker - Warehouse - Airboss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GIJoe Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Hollywood, After running VA/VAICOM for almost a year straight without issue, DCS appears to have stop responding to the VAICOM commands. The only thing I did in the last few days was update to VA 1.7.8. Troubleshooting in debug mode, I can see that VA is recognizing my commands and the plugin appears to be sending the command set to DCS, but nothing happens. What is weird is that for commands that I have added to the profile such as "aircraft view", VA sends the command and DCS reacts as it has always done. Could my plugin keywords be corrupted? That doesn't make sense to me because in debug mode I can see VA recognize the command and the plugin appears to be sending the right command to DCS. At a lost here right now. If I reset my keywords, will that clear out the profile commands I have added? Thanks in advance for any assistance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greyman Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Try deleting the export.lua file and then restart DCS and VA. This probably needs to be done after every DCS update. Check out from around 12:00 onwards in the linked video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hollywood_315 Posted September 2, 2019 Author Share Posted September 2, 2019 Also what sometimes happens when updating VA is that it no longer runs as admin. You may see this on startup 'VoiceAttack privileges not elevated.' Just in case inspect your VA shortcut / properties / Compatibility tab / all users / and check 'run this program as an administrator'. There is no spoon.

Greyman Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Probably not helpful, but just to make sure that you have restarted both VA and DCS after elevating to run as admin. Also, does the PTT tab of the VP config screen correctly display the module you are using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, does the PTT tab of the VP config screen correctly display the module you are using? It does not, which mirrors the symptom of the export.lua file issue mentioned in the video posted here. I tried those steps suggested and nothing has worked so far. Maybe I need to do a manual .lua install? Edit: I forgot to add I have restarted all applications numerous times, along with several reboots. No joy.

Kirin Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 Found the problem. I did not correctly add the additional AIRIO commands as layed out on page 36/37 of the manual. Works like a charm now. Off to some F-14 training! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
