Recommended Posts

ill take any suggestions even daft one mate

 

uninstalled VA/VAI, cleaned reg of any VA/VAI entries, deleted all folders, rebooted machine

 

installed VA, started DCS

installed VAICOM restarted DCS

Installed AIRIO restarted DCS

 

this is my current export.lua

local SimShakerlfs=require('lfs'); dofile(SimShakerlfs.writedir()..'Scripts/SimShaker.lua')

 

dofile(lfs.writedir()..[[scripts\SimShaker-export-core\ExportCore.lua]])

 

local vaicomlfs = require('lfs'); dofile(vaicomlfs.writedir()..[[scripts\VAICOMPRO\VAICOMPRO.export.lua]])

 

theres no dofile for vaicom, can someone with a working vaicom/airio post what theyre export.lua looks like?

 

Mine just has the final line of your file. The one that starts "local vaicomlfs ="

Dear VAICOM Community,

 

First of all thanks for the creators, this is a great immersion enhancement, I have the PRO version and it is really a gamechanger for me, especially in the carrier environment.

 

I have some issues lately unfortunately. I have read through the forum and found the issue on page 9 by Buckeye. Unfortunately the resolve is not in the other posts.

 

The issue is that after my command is understood by VA and VAICOM, I receive the confirmation beep, but nothing happens. Than I have to push the PTT button again (and relase at once) and then my command goes through to DCS.

 

This problem comes and goes, sometimes this is not happening for days or hours of playing, on other days it comes after 30 minutes of gameplay. Restarting VA did not solve it for me.

 

Do you have any ideas how to resolve this issue?

 

Thanks

Skunk. Try doing a DCS repair and then start VA _before_ you restart DCS. That way DCS can't interfere with the lua editing that VA wants to do. Your latest log suggests that you are starting DCS before VA. Try it the other way around. That's what works for me.

I’ve decided to go for the nuclear option.

 

Reset then uninstalled VAICOM, then uninstalled DCS, not had a complete fresh install for a long time.

 

Long download to get DCS World tonight and then my aircraft collection tomorrow.

 

Then try it all again

i have a autoexec.cfg in my save folder.

 

After all the hours wasted :wallbash: trying to track down the issue, ive just found that if the options.graphics.stereo_mode_use_shared_parser = true is used VAICOM stops talking to DCS. its a new line that enables culling of non visible geometry and really improves framerate but kneecaps VAICOM

 

log.set_output("dcs", "", log.ALL, log.FULL)

no_device_hotplug = true

treesVisibility = -15008;

options.graphics.stereo_mode_use_shared_parser = true

 

least I have a nice clean fresh DCS install now.....

I have the last line in the autoexec.cfg fiela and it works fine with VAICOM, but I have the file in the config directory SavedGames/DCS.openbeta/Config.

Is there any chance that you are working on a Viacom type program for MSFS 2020?

Looking for help -

I seem to have a problem where Voice Attack will not stay listening - And this i snot a problem when "Enabel Plugin" is unchecked.

F/A-18 in DCS with TX nodes set to Throttle transmit switches.

The Comm1, Comm2, and MIDS A are set to TX1-3

The correct switches are in the ViacomPro profile

When I transmit the "Listening resumed" is immediately followed by "Listening suspended"!

However, the Intercom and Aux nodes work fine!!!

Although the AUX node switches on the RLY Amber light on ViacomPro Control Panel!

Any help would be greatly appreciated

It seems to have fixed itself!!!

 

Nope - Still doing it.

 

So,SRS gets a TR against the radio WITHOUT VA running.

 

When VA is runing using the ViacomPro App I get this double transmit request that causes the SRS window TR to flash momentarily!!!

 

Any Ideas guys?

There seem to be no commands for the new Syria map.

 

You have to update your VA profile with the new keywords imported into Vaicom. Page 36 of the Vaicom user manual has step-by-step instructions.

I have been trying to update my database as well and always a nogo. Test button under the editor never seems to work. I followed a vid posted a week ago on how to paste the command into the keyword command window yet MINE looks like the attachment provided. I cannot paste anything or get any other windows to pop up. WTF is wrong with my software?

Vaicom is broken since the last update. Whilst my spoken commands appear in voice attack nothing is acted on. Most annoyingly the comms menu keeps re-appearing and disappearing every 10 seconds or so until I turn VA/VC off!
Close DCS, close VA, repair DCS, rename export.lua in the scripts folder under Saved Games DCS.xx

Start VA start DCS

I believe you may also close DCS, in VAICOM control panel you can reset Lua, then restart VA and start DCS, but I haven't confirmed that works.

I often have to do this procedure after updating DCS. Like after last OB patch.

Cheers!

Maybe try the steps identified in the FAQ. I've copy/pasted it for you below.

 

Symptom Blinking menu

Cause Faulty lua install

Remedy See below

 

Symptom Module name not shown on PTT page

Symptom Not functioning after DCS update

Cause Faulty lua install due to incorrect or missing DCS path in Windows registry

Remedy Set DCS program files path with Custom Path option (Config tab)

Remedy Fix DCS install path in Windows registry (use fix reg option on Options tab)

Cause Windows account has insuffficient access right

Remedy Check Windows UAC / antivirus allows R/W acccess to program files folders

Hi! Is VAICOM working properly in the Mig-21 for you? For me, it makes my Radio PTT in-cockpit to stay on all the time so people will hear me over SRS. If I disable VAICOM, all works as intented.
