ESzczesniak Posted April 3, 2020 Posted April 3, 2020 I have not seen anything addressing if this is already included. Could some radio calls have a keyboard shortcut similar to what has been mentioned already for the "salute". I am primarily thinking about the ball call for VR users. Entering the groove is a less than ideal time to navigate the radio menus in VR. Would much rather a quick button press that could "call the ball" so we can focus on flying.

ESzczesniak Posted April 3, 2020 Author Posted April 3, 2020 Don't mean to be a smartass, but have you ever considered VAICOM/Voice Attack? Sent from my ANE-LX1 using Tapatalk Yes, yesterday, for this reason. Not saying I won’t figure it out, but so far all I’ve gotten is a freeze with DCS loading. Cleanup removed just the V.A./VAICOM plugin and all was back to normal. It’s on my list. But also didn’t go so smooth on try number 1.
Raisuli Posted April 4, 2020 Posted April 4, 2020 Considered, discounted. I even own a license, but I don't talk to IVR systems, either. At least not in a language they understand, which is probably for the better because being told to insert anatomical part C in orifice A in Russian or German really isn't much better than hearing it in English. I'd like to see key binding for most, if not all the communications checkpoints. Taking my hand off the stick to drive the mouse isn't very immersive. Pushing a button is a little easier, particularly when you have hundreds of them. I could use XKeys, but that's my last resort for things like wheel chocks and ground air supplies.

Make sure to go to the VAICOM utility (default LCtrl+LShift+C) and check the OB option if you're running OB. A lot of users experienced difficulties since ED made all sound files encrypted when 2.5.6 dropped, but this is a common solution. The vCVW-17 is looking for Hornet and Tomcat pilots and RIOs.

In VAICOM control panel. Just manually select the path to Open Beta and check the "OB" check box. Sent from my ANE-LX1 using Tapatalk

ESzczesniak Posted April 7, 2020 Author Posted April 7, 2020 I do not see a separate forum for VAICOM, just this thread: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=198297&page=465 Is this the preferred place for support, or somewhere else? I got cut short on my troubleshooting session last night, but seemed to have the same issue after selecting the OB option.
