maverick90 Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 I'm not a VR user, but I use TrackIR. I came across these 2 plugins and saw a few videos of it on YouTube and thought they were interesting. Would definitely seem to make it a bit more immersive when flying in a group with others. Will this plugin work for multiplayer also and do you guys think its worth it? I'm 50/50 on this and need some insight from others. If I will have to spend a lot of time tinkering with it then its a no go. I'm looking for something that will work with minimal setup or effort, pretty much out of the box.

71st_AH Rob Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 VoiceAttack will work in MP but you need to set up a profile for each game and for each module in DCS, VIACOM is a great plug in for VA that makes it work out of the box. Hollywood has done all of the hard work of making a profile for you. It works in single player in the free version but you need the paid version to use it in multiplayer. Some people want to use it to activate a/c commands, I use it only for those actions that you would give spoken commands over the radio for. It is particularly useful for speaking to the tower on approach, AWACS and JTAC when you really don't want to take your hands off of the HOTAS and you don't want to go searching for the correct F key or try to remember what it is because you can't read it on the screen. I recommend it, I use it every flight in MP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weegie Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Think it's great I also use it mainly for where I'd speak a command but also for Track IR centering etc: For the price it's a bit of a steal IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DutchCoolHand Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 it works really well, I started using it more when I started flying in VR.

tmansteve Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 The great thing with viacompro now, is you can set other profiles to be recognised as well, daisy chain. And now linked with SRS. Fantastic piece of kit. Wouldn't fly without it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 ~S Yes ! I bought a Vaicom Pro program/plugin with chatter themes and everything works perfectly in DCS. Chatter themes are so good that I even listen them when I'm not flying Since I don't speak English at all, I had to train almost all the phrases again... After that, everything works great. These 4-5 weeks, I have been using Vaicom Pro plugin, and it was amazing. I don't even know how I used to fly without it. . :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stenji Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 licenses purchasing So, to better understand, I fly only on the F-18 DCS module, should I buy both the VoiceAttack license and the Viacom or just one of the two? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weegie Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 So, to better understand, I fly only on the F-18 DCS module, should I buy both the VoiceAttack license and the Viacom or just one of the two? Vaicom is a plug in to Voice Attack so you need to purchase both if you want to run Vaicom If you only fly the Horrnet you'd need Voice Attack & Vaicom.Obiously you don't need the Jester Voice pack & Chatter is an optional extra. Personally I'd start with Voice Attack and Vaicom & decide how much you like it. There is a free tester with Vaicom you can download to try it. If you like it then you can purchase the Pro pack with the additional features. Voice Attack will work without Vaicom but not the other way around. If you want you can also download some VA profiles for free, Bailey did some that permits you to control some parts of the jet via voice commands too. These packs that control some stuff in the jet can also be diasy chained with Vaicom so you can use both if you want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightstorm Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 It's an awesome program that adds so much immersion to the sim in my opinion. You're literally using the aircraft radio to speak to various other units and ATC and they respond in kind. I wouldn't want to fly without it.
