tomeye Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Sometimes after computer return from sleep the vaicom configuration window does not open though vaicom works properly in DCS. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreadwing Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 I'm having trouble with the comm menus not loading. It worked before the big update last week though. I've deleted export.lua and let it rebuild and have at a custom path to where the lua is written, but it's still not hooking into the game. The ptt window on vaicom still says ez comms and doesn't show the module I'm actually flying, any ideas guys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm afraid it has nothing to do with restarting (which means pressing finish button on one of the VAICOM control page tabs, don't remember which now. YOu will find it in the VAICOM manual, or in a pop up window in VAICOM after perssing mentioned Finish button. Back to the original question, I also have Comms menu popping up for no apparent reason. I did not investigated so deep yet, but my culprit is rather the Voice Attack listening window, that usually picks up words sometimes you didn't even say at all. Some said it is some wrong joystick assignment, but I don't think so, as this one I checked several times. I think it can be some "ghost" words, but as I said, didn't spend so much time investigating. 1 hour ago, tomeye said: After DCS update you need to restart VA Not sure I understand what you mean... You only need to re-edit commands (copy-paste bla bla) after a VAICOM update AFAIK, DCS update do not touch Voice Attack or VAICOM I guess...

Razor18 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 I think if you had ever went through the manual, or at least throught the first steps, you would know what was meant.

Razor18 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 (edited) Sorry then, probably misunderstood. Pressing Finish suppose to put all (incl. new) commands onto your clipoard for insertion. And the Keyword Collection group must be consolidated in the Profile edit window. Edited December 23, 2020 by Razor18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well for whatever reason I just tried again and it worked this time. No idea why it did not work the two times I tried before, but I will take it lol.

The question was what you need to do after a DCS update, not a VAICOM update. After a DCS update you definitely need to restart VAICOM with DCS not running, and only then start DCS again. That lets VAICOM update the DCS lua files that may have been reset when DCS updated. You may or may not need to also delete export.lua first. I find that isn't necessary on my installation, and I've been puzzled why it is recommended so often. It only helps if the file was not set up correctly in the first place.

Turn on debug mode, restart VAICOM, then post your log file here so we can see if there are any issues on startup. 1 I'm Softball on Multiplayer.

When I say "kneeboard" VA is detecting "on the board"... Could be a few things, but assuming the voice training is Ok, I usually get persistant unrecognized phrases when VA isn't recognizing the command, because it doesn't exist as far as VA is concerned Are you running VSPX as that can make things a bit whacky and some of the commands aren't getting recognized properly yet? Is the Extended Command Set option in the Vaicom pop up under the preferences tab ticked (it won't work unless it's enabled)? If none of the above what you could try as a work-around and to prove that VA is recognizing your command is to go to the Vaicom profile for VA and make a command called Kneeboard. Then get that command to activate the keystrokes your module uses to open and close (or toggle) the kneeboard open and closed and see how you get on with that. If that works then either keep it, or if you go to the Vaicom Website and raise a ticket you can inform them that Voice Attack is recognizing the command as you've proved through a separate comand. Personally I don't use the Kneeboard command (I'm running VSPX) and just have 2 commands that open and close the kneeboard by invoking the necessary.

Is it detecting the same phrase every time? If so, you can add that phrase to your command list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
