John de Lancie with a message for Elite Dangerous fans (HCS Voice Pack)

On the subject of HCS and voiceattack, some may recall about a year ago I got fed up teaching my pc how to understand Scottish and shelved it.
Well about two weeks back I had another go - now the new motherboard - Gigabyte Ax370 that I got awhile back when upgrading to Ryzen 2 might be part of the equation as I reckon the onboard sound is probably better than what I had before - but the biggest improvement was this cheap condenser mic - https://www.amazon.co.uk/DISDIM-Microphone-Condenser-Recording-Smartphone/dp/B0719CHFLS.
So just thought I'd throw that up as it was completely unusable for me before and is now rock solid - quite the turnaround (singularity with they key mapping configurator was a godsend as well).

I thought I would have the same issue...but my soft highland lilt doesn't seem to offend Windows too much. I did try to teach it Gaelic...it was worse than herding cats [rolleyes]
 
OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG.. Please let me have Q as my cockpit AI.... I will nerdgasm so hard...

This is me right now..

Leonord Nimoy did an HCS voicepack too.

*gasp* I so abhor spending money on games post-initial purchase, but maybe it's time I crack open the piggy bank. Ack, morals versus desires...

Can't believe I missed that, thx CMDR!

Oh wow, didn't know that, I'll replace my ships library with his voice. Thanks mate


I was waiting for someone to ask about this but I guess I'll have to stick my head over the parapet instead.

Is it really Leonard Nimoy or is it someone impersonating him?

It sounds like the real deal to me. (I was going to say the real McCoy but that would be confusing! ;) )
 
Do not get "ELI" unless you are a masochist

Avoid the "ELI" voice pack unless you enjoy being verbally abused by your AI. The ELI voice-pack is described as "funny and profane" but mostly is neither. Except for a couple of F-bombs it just spends a lot of time telling you how stupid you are.

If you are into that sort of thing, have at it. I tried to exchange ELI for a different voice pack after a couple of days and HCS basically told me to F/off. Thing is, as I get better at flying the ship and playing the game I use ELI less and less, am down to only 4 or 5 ship functions now . . .

Personally I love Eli - he is probably one of my favourite voice packs.
