skypickle Posted September 25, 2021 Posted September 25, 2021 (edited) kneeboard not coming up in DCS Latest DCS open beta 2.7.6.13133 Latest VA. Licensed kneeboard clicked 'finish' on the vaicom option editor tab pasted the updated command set as instructed in video When I say 'kneeboard' VA recognizes the word. It also shows (awaiting additional input) shortly after in the VA window. But the kneeboard does not come up. Using the hotkeys brings up the kneeboard from VAICOM (the one with the tabs) I did a DCS repair (slow) Now, Using hotkeys I have bound to bring up the kneeboard brings up the standard one without the tabs. Other commands I have created (like 'masterarm' which sets master arm to on) work even after the DCS repair. Even confirmatory text to speech replies (like 'yessir') work How to troubleshoot this?

skypickle Posted September 25, 2021 Author Posted September 25, 2021 okay...made some progress SteamVR was coming up in the background (since I sometimes use VR and had the VR checkbox checked in DCS) Disabled the checkbox. Disabled the Nahimic service. Restarted VA Restarted DCS Now the kneeboard command works to bring it up However, when ever I say 'page AWACS' I get 'Extended command set is currently disabled in preferences' and the kneeboard goes away. In fact, I can get the kneeboard just by saying 'page' I clicked the VAICOM prefs checkbox to enable the extended command set. Restarted VAICOM. Restarted DCS. Now the command 'kneeboard' does nothing even though VA is recognizing it in it swindow. Even with everything running, I can go to VAICOM prefs, disable the 'extended command set' , pop back into DCS, now 'kneeboard' brings up the kneeboard but I cannot navigate to other pages. In fact 'page', 'AWACS', etc all bring up the kneeboard. But only the log pag is showing. 4930K @ 4.5, 32g ram, TitanPascal

skypickle Posted September 25, 2021 Author Posted September 25, 2021 (edited) SOLVED: Just binding the PTT button in voice attack is insufficient. I also have to bind an active TX node to a button. So I bound TX4 (AUTO) to a button and now I can switch tabs - some of them anyway. JTAC, and notes. Even though it recognizes 'ATC' it wont go to the tab ATC. Same with Ref and AAR. JTAC however can be brought up by spelling it with the 4 letters. most of that BS above was unnecessary. Just needed to disable VR and nahimic. Even used my old export.lua file.

You should not not for any reason bind a PTT in VA that conflicts with a TX in VAICOM. Cheers!
