MurrayCod Posted September 20, 2023 Posted September 20, 2023 I thought I had updated to v2.8.6.3 correctly, but now I can't see the VaicomPro interactive kneeboard page in DCS, even after a full shutdown and restart of the PC. I can see, and flick through, all the other kneeboard pages though. I've got the ENABLE box ticked in the EX tab. Does anyone know what I might have done wrong and how to fix it? Viacom is working as I can say commands such as "inbound", "place the wheelchocks" etc and get a verbal response from DCS.
MAXsenna Posted September 20, 2023 Posted September 20, 2023 @MurrayCod is there like a blank invisible page when you first open the kneeboard? You don't need to open with voice command, press and hold "K", or press "RShft + K".Cheers! Sent from my MAR-LX1A using Tapatalk
MurrayCod Posted September 20, 2023 Author Posted September 20, 2023 I'll check again, but i don't believe I have any blank pages
MurrayCod Posted September 20, 2023 Author Posted September 20, 2023 Yep, no blank pages. The "funny" thing is the Interactive kneeboard seems to be partially working, as in my screenshot with the Hornet you can see on the kneeboard on screen that there is the option to pin pages, it has the kneeboard page count plus up and down ordering in the bottom RH corner

Maybe it got borked. These are my settings.
MurrayCod Posted September 20, 2023 Author Posted September 20, 2023 Tried that but it is still no good. Perhaps it is time to uninstall and reinstall Vaicom and Voice Attack.
Tshark Posted September 20, 2023 Posted September 20, 2023 (edited) I had the same problem. In the Vaicom control panel (alt+ctrl+C) go to the "Reset" tab. Make sure the "LUA code" box is checked then press "Master Zero". Restart Vaicom and DCS. That got it working for me.

Never really necessary to do that, especially not for VoiceAttack if there are issues with VAICOM. They are not related in any way. VAICOM just VoiceAttack as a gateway to Microsoft Speech Recognition Engine.All settings in VAICOM are contained in VAICOM. Try doing a reset as suggested.Cheers! Sent from my MAR-LX1A using Tapatalk
MurrayCod Posted September 21, 2023 Author Posted September 21, 2023 Thanks MAXsenna and Tshark for your efforts in helping me out. Resetting the LUAs didn't work for me. However the missing piece of the puzzle was that I did NOT have the "Use custom DCS path" box checked within the Config tab. The box is now checked, the associated path is correct, and the Interactive Kneeboard shows up again. So glad I saw that bit of info on Discord before I went down the uninstall and reinstall path. 1

Maybe the manual should be altered, in case it already isn't. Haven't read it in a while!Out of curiosity, did this stop working with latest VAICOM version, or did you by chance to a repair/update of DCS in between?Cheers! Sent from my MAR-LX1A using Tapatalk
MurrayCod Posted September 21, 2023 Author Posted September 21, 2023 Checking that box is shown in the current Sept 2023 manual (where is that rock for me to crawl under in embarrassment?) I haven't repaired/updated DCS. I'm 99% confident I had that box checked before I updated VAICOM yesterday, so I am guessing the box unchecked during the update. 1

If you use the "fix registry" option then you won't need it checked any more. 2 I'm Softball on Multiplayer.
