BigBorner Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 As I was going through the eurofighter avionics manual … will the voice commands be available in the DCS Eurofighter? That’ll be neat. sorry if I missed that it has been asked previously. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cunning_Raven Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Well, in my opinion, it is not likely. I don't think DCS supports mic inputs, but if someone can do it, it'sd be Heatblur. They have already done something revolutionary with the multicrew of the Tomcat. I'd say hope for the best, except the worst. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBorner Posted November 20, 2022 Author Share Posted November 20, 2022 It’s not bad if it isn’t there. It just would be very neat After posting the question and thinking about it, yeah it would be no small thing to do. But I could absolutely imaging me using it extensively.

Etirion Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 Gero answered that question in an interview before, when the Eurofighter was first announced (can't remember which but I think it was a Grim Reapers one) and iirc it was something along the lines of it'd probably not work that well, but they might integrate it and jokingly added that it would make it more realistic if it doesnt work that well. But keep in mind this wasnt a confirmation and before the heatblur partnership. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon1-1 Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 Mind that DCS, as a Windows program, can use Windows Speech Recognition to actually handle speech. No need for a bespoke solution. VoiceAttack is nothing more than a spiffy macro tool for WSR. If HB can implement this kind of thing natively, the voice command system would be relatively easy. Maybe even Jester commands could be implemented via that system (from the sim's point of view, there's little difference between talking to an avionics system and an AI RIO). Alternatively, they could just add keyboard shortcuts and perhaps a Jester-like menu for giving commands, for those who are unable to talk to their computer (some people fly in an environment where talking aloud bothers other people). As long as the commands are exposed, existing tools could be used to implement the system. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBorner Posted November 21, 2022 Author Share Posted November 21, 2022 Yeah, I heard several times now that IRL it doesn’t work that well. didn’t watch the GR interview, sorry. given the commands are mostly known, one could really recreate it in VoiceAttack. i might give it a try once the EF is released =] 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F-2 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 I head during the AFTI F-16 program it’s success was very mixed also apparently it’s hard to use over 5 G but one guy was able to use it up to 9. I bet he got made fun of for that, nine times gravity couldn’t shut him up. I believe the Rafale has a similar system? Not sure how it worked for them.

Yep, just give us appropriate commands to bind to and everyone can utilise them however they like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fear with the tools we as windows users have at hand, it will actually work better than in the real jet, unacceptable.... 1 Alias in Discord: Mailman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps if you put your mic at the other side of the room you can enhance the realism? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagpuss22 Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 DVI could be implemented like the actual system where you have a PTT for the Radio and a PTR for the recognition. Intel i7-8086K, 32Gb DDR4, RTX2080 with VR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon1-1 Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 I think that's a given, given the real jet has it set up that way. While a built-in voice macro system would be awesome, I doubt they'll go that route. Rather, we're more likely to see keyboard shortcuts for each command, that could be bound up to VA commands. Getting a VA profile with the module would be icing on the cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
