'Salute' not working and can't sort out why


Recommended Posts

Posted

I ran VAICOM PRO with 2.7 a couple of years ago and could say 'Salute' to launch off the cat (SC).  Took a break for a couple of years and coming back to it and for some reason 'Salute' won't work any more.  It looks like the Pilot Salute key bind changed to LAlt + LCtrl + LShft +S, so I changed the keys in the VAICOM profile, but when I give the command, I still sit there on the cat.  I'm getting the Recognized: 'salute' and it's sending (Ground Crew], [Salute] but nothing happens.  If I manually press the keys, then off I go.  I've tried reconfiguring the key binds in DCS and VAICOM and am at a loss.  Anyone have a suggestion?

Thanks!

It was working yesterday for me after the latest upgrade in a hornet. Maybe post a video or a track to help with diagnosis? I assume you have successfully hooked up and are getting the run up signal from the guy on the deck

First of all. VAICOM doesn't use keybinds at all, so that must have been a custom command you have made. What version of VAICOM are you running? A lot has happened in the past years.

Cheers!

Edit: And by that I mean both the SC and VAICOM. Are you asking the crew permission to hook up?

Do you have your external lights on? If the deck crew has those glowsticks they won't let you go without the lights.

Do you have the latest versions of VoiceAttack and VAICOM? (should be 2.1.6 and 3.0.4.0 respectively)

I'm not updating this anymore. It's safe to assume I have all the stuff, and the stuff for the stuff too. 🙂

The profile was from several years ago, so I thought maybe try to delete the keybind command in the profile and, viola, it works again.  Thanks for the inspiration!
