Aerovenator Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Yeah, had this once or twice. IIRC I reset the LUA via the VAICOM menu. 1 I7-9700K -- 32GB RAM -- RTX 4070 -- Virpil T-50CM3 Throttle + WarBRD Base -- Thrustmaster TPR -- Quest 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freakmeister51 Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Yes, me too. reset the lua file via the viacom menu. also delete the lua file from your save games folder. There is a video to back this up via Hollywood's YouTube channel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am aware that there is the option to fully turn off the comms menu, but there are some situations where still having access to the comms menu comes in handy but . Has anyone encountered this? any fix for those that have encountered it? In my experience this is almost always because you did not follow necessary procedures after a DCS update. Whenever you update DCS you must (1) exist DCS; (2) exit VoiceAttack, (3) restart VoiceAttack, and (4) restart DCS in that order. Otherwise the lua files do not get updated properly, and the flashing comms menus are symptom of that. 2 I'm Softball on Multiplayer.

Are you sure you copied the email address properly? Just asking because you mistyped the name in your post so maybe you did when entering the email address too. 1 I'm Softball on Multiplayer.

D3adCy11nd3r Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Took 8 days to get a reply but, Looks like EVERYONE who has vaicom needs to dig up their activation keys and put them somewhere off PC [A thumb drive perhaps.] "Hi there Thanks for contacting us. Our customers are advised to store their license keys in a secure location where they can be retrieved in the future. For reasons of data security and piracy prevention we cannot provide retrieval services for lost keys. All the best, The VAICOM PRO team" They had retrieved them in the past, No longer. Software is good and not extremely expensive so I will be buying license keys again. Just a bit aggravating since there is no "account" to log into and I have had vaicom for YEARS at this point, so those keys are long gone. Thanks for replying eventually though. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAXsenna Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Really? Well, I guess the order system/software doesn't keep the generated licence codes bound to a specific email address, which I find very strange. Yeah, the cost is low, but still. This should not be an issue for the user, as long as you remember one used do the order. Me? I have since long stored them in a text file on Onedrive after I thought I had lost them, but fortunately I had just ordered with to different email accounts.

Japo32 Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 What worries me is the long time to reply. That, with the lack of communication here and time to have real updates, seems that Vaicom is dying. Hope I am wrong. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sr. Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 Lately if I get one command to go through, I'm lucky. Starts up fine, can do the simple stuff like gear up, flaps up etc, but when I select an ATC or specify a frequency change, I get one change and from then on... nothing.

greyeagle787 Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 (edited) Hey Guys, Just downloaded the Apache and will be control binding for a while! Currently flying the Huey and FA18 with my PTT mapping set per the original VaiCom manual. So I’m using separate TX’s for UHF, VHF, Intercom, etc mapped to my throttle hat. Am I seeing that there will be only 1 TX available for the Apache? So tune and select the desired radio on the upfront display and use the same switch for all? Thanks Edited April 17, 2022 by greyeagle787 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently Apache "only supports"/needs TX1. Would like to have ICS/Intercom as well but it's not needed.Sent from my MAR-LX1A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greyeagle787 Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 (edited) So no “chatter” ( which I don’t use anyway) and talk to ground crew on TX1 as well? Just thought of this….Currently have my throttle hat sw. Set for VAICOM TX’s. In Apache if I assign those to something else will that screw up VAICOM?? Thanks!

Thanks!Only the TX1, unless you rotate the selector in the control panel to something else but normal.There are ways to have different TX buttons in any module too, and they only work in that specific module.

dburne Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 The real question will be how well Vaicom will work with the Apache for ya. I think perhaps Vaicom is not fully baked yet for the Apache. 3 Don B EVGA Z390 Dark MB | i9 9900k CPU @ 5.1 GHz | Gigabyte 4090 OC | 64 GB Corsair Vengeance 3200 MHz CL16 | Corsair H150i Pro Cooler |Virpil CM3 Stick w/ Alpha Prime Grip 200mm ext| Virpil CM3 Throttle | VPC Rotor TCS Base w/ Alpha-L Grip| Point Control V2|Varjo Aero| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the commands go through, but you don't get a reply, I guess it's the "queue" issue I sometimes get after an update or in a new "unsupported" module. I might have jumped to conclusions too quickly, I do have issues in the air sometimes, but on the ground it's working pretty consistently. Have you tried with doors open/intercom? Sent from my MAR-LX1A using Tapatalk I know you made this comment awhile ago, but I’m having that queue issue too. Vaicom beeps like it heard the command, but it can take several minutes before it sends the command to DCS. I’ve noticed that if I key the mic several times I can jump start the queue but did you have a different work around or fix?

dburne Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 (edited) Yeah currently Vaicom Pro with the Apache is hit or miss. Sadly Apache is where all my focus is presently in learning it.

Fat Bob Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Kneeboard ATC Page Not Working (most of the time) I am using Vaicom Pro with the Keyboard extension. After some fiddling around I have got everything working except the ATC Page of the Kneeboard. I have managed to call up the ATC page once using voice command. All other attempts to access it using a voice command failed although Vaicom seems to recognise my input. To try and diagnose the issue I set up keybinds for "keyboard tab next" and "keyboard tab previous". I have managed to use "keyboard tab next" to access the ATC page once but only once. Otherwise the keybinds work as expected stepping forwards or backwards through the various pages. Almost all the time: 1. If I am on the JTAC page "keyboard tab next" does nothing. If I press the key a second time the AAR page is selected. 2. If I am on the AAR page "keyboard tab previous" does nothing. If I press the key a second time the JTAC page is selected. In effect the ATC page seems to get missed out. Any idea what the problem is? I am stumped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then it won't change to the ATC page no matter what. This happens to me often, but sometimes it's all well. Not sure if this is module specific, as I haven't bothered to test that much.Cheers!
