DCS AH-64D Apache Voice Attack by Bailey 

Thanks, I'm from Alabama and my computer has a hard time understanding my accent.

Yahoo! I am glad you enjoy them so much! Having fun is the name of the game.

Nice! Welcome to the club. Enjoy!

That is great news! I have been looking towards native integration for years. We'll see how it turns out. The native solution will hopefully be more smooth than what I have been able to figure out. It would greatly supplement the rest of the VA profile.

@@asherao Well the profile is working great. I can tell George what to do and he is right on it.

@@ComdrStew Great to hear. If you have any ideas on improvements, my ears are open. Enjoy!

@@ComdrStew thanks for sharing that info

Amazing! Haha. That's awesome. I'm glad you enjoy it so much. Something that might help is to write your most used commands on a piece of paper and have it near you when you need it. Enjoy!

Thank you!

Abra kadabra, alla kazee, I am excited for this voice attack for the apache! :P

Awesome. Enjoy!

Mmmm. Delicious :D

It is a livery I made. I have put the link in the video description. Thanks!

Thank you. No, I am not.

This was an earlier version of DCS. Things have changed since then.

Feel free to print out the ones in the Readme. In the Voice Attack Help PDF it too shows you ways you can print out commands.

Thank you! Using VoiceAttack the normal way (with keybinds), it is not feasible to do throttle movements. There are two ways you *could* do it though. 1) If your module has a control called "Throttle +10", then you can use that in VA. If you wanted to get 30 throttle, you would do "Throttle -10" ten times, then "Throttle +10" three times. 2) Use DCS BIOS with VA to be able to use specific commands. Take a look at the MI-24 VA I made to learn more about that. Once you understand it a bit, you can see that you can modify inputs at a certain level to get the desired output. A basic example is that via VA and DCS BIOS you are telling the switch to go to position one (instead of how you would normally use VA to tell DCS to do a keybind). With that in mind, you can then tell the throttle to go to 30. I hope that answers your questions and gets you started on a solution that works for you if you'd like to pursue it.

Hi there. Thank you. What you can do is save your keybinds, then export them to HTML (a button in the Controls menu). Then load the new controls and export those to HTML too. Then compare the two in your browser.

You can use them at the same time. Look at the VAICOM Readme on how to do that.

Np. Enjoy!

You’ll have to consult the VAICOM readme for that.

Thanks! Maybe, maybe not. You can try.

you need a mic for input.

Ah, I must have misunderstood the question. By default you need a mic. You could set up the profile to register button presses to trigger the commands if you really want to.

If you need to, you can train your voice recognition to recognize specific words. You can try this. For George, make sure you are eon the right command mode, eg flight, transition, etc.

Yeah my George refuses to speak back to me he just executes the command

My I itial thought is that you may not have imported the keybinds.diff file.

My training has been repeating sentences. Is there any problem?

@@user-zhangsheng NO THE MORE YOU DO REPEAT THOSE SENTENCES THE MORE IT WILL UNDERSTAND YOU

Having trouble with recognition going to give this a try later, thanks for the tip!

@@user-zhangsheng all you have to do is ready the text that appears as normal as you speak normally don't try to do a robotic or news reader voice rubbish just talk as quietly or quickly as you normal speak but make sure you get the words on display correctly but with your normal accent do the training 7 times if you can or more not on the same on different days or on the same day is up to you

Except for when it interprets Jester as gesture, LOL. Going with RIO.

Get the voice attack profile and find out ;)

it recognizes and puts into que the commands but wont complete the actual entry

That is incredibly odd. You may find more info about that on the ED forums or their discord. Make sure you are clicking in the keyboard column before trying to import.

@@asherao Finally got it. Cleared the KB category, then loaded. Verified it populated.

@@cuttheloop awesome. Enjoy!

Voiceattack

Never mind. I got it. I needed to Say, “direct waypoint “whiskey” 02. It works.

Awesome, glad to hear.

It is also a solution if the coordinate commands can automatically broadcast the corresponding data immediately after each command is entered.This is my suggestion, I will try to train to improve the computer recognition rate, but English is not its native language, I think the method I propose should improve the recognition efficiency of coordinate cammands.

Optional programs can be made, one for non-native speakers and one for native English speakers

Coordinate commands already have audio command feedback. I'll look into adding it to all other commands. It is possible, but it takes time to do.

@@user-zhangsheng yes, this is possible. You can edit the command to add the action Text to Speech. Put {TXT:saidEasting} in the box. Change "saidEasting" to whatever variable you see in that command, for example, "saidAltitude". You can also use the command dwhoch is already in the profile to read back your set of coordinates.

@@user-zhangsheng Individuals must do this themselves. It is ok to do so.

Please remember to train your voice recognition to the max extent possible. You can also try reducing the confidence level required in the voice attack settings.

train your voice recognition LMAO

People just want to grab any voiceattack profile and use it without training the software to understand your accent and pronunciations and pauses etc ... some don't know they have to do that I respect that but some they have been told over and over again and they still ask why when they say Land gear up nothing happens lol .... there is lots of video on RU-vid that shows you how to train voiceattack

That’s odd. Check the voice attack log to find out why.

You will be able to find those answers and more by reading about VA via it's Help File (pressing F1 while VA is selected). Basically, hotkeys is how VA talks to DCS.

@@asherao I've been through the document, but i'm not sure how hotkeys work exactly. There's no way that I have figured out to give commands for actions that are not keybound in the aircraft settings. Meaning I haven't figured out how to reference a specific control in the cockpit if there is no keyboard keys bound to it in settings.

@@StraitD2 The solution to that is a rather high level procedure. Coincidently, you can explore it with the L-39 VoiceAttack profile I have made. It basically involves VA talking to DCS through the DCS plugin system.

Try heading over to the Voice attack discord. You may get faster answers there.

It all depends on how your voice recognition hears you. Being in a quiet environment with a good mic and multiple trainings done will go far.

Nope. That’s saying hold the right turn button for 5 seconds. It’s not possible to give discrete reliable absolute bearings due to frame rates, repeating input delay, hold ramp up, etc.
