Discussion i want voice attack.. but with no speaker please
- Thread starter SwordDance
- Start date
VoiceAttack doesn't, by default, talk back to you, at least mine doesn't, and never has. If I want an audio confirmation that a command has been run, I need to select that option (Other > Sounds > Say something with text - to - speech) and then type in what I want it to say.
Have you installed any other programmes such as EDDI or perhaps a voicepack?

no i just downloaded it today so there is no commands yet.
when i google packs they all have voices that come with them
do i have to program this myself or is there a pack floating around thats what i need?
just want to deploy my landing gear, etc. and have no audio after
thanks!
Like I said, VoiceAttack shouldn't say anything if you create a command to deploy / toggle your landing gear. The game itself tells you that your landing gear is deployed, but not VoiceAttack. I'm not sure if you can disable the in game audio notifications, but if there is, it will be under Controls > Audio from the game menu.
To do this in VoiceAttack, create a new command, and have it press whatever key on your keyboard is mapped to toggle landing gear. If that's all you do, it will either deploy or retract your landing gear depending on whether the gear is currently up or down, but won't give you an audio notification.
And sorry if I wasn't clear, the other two programmes I mentioned will talk back to you, and a voice pack will also give you the option to speak commands to do stuff in the game, and will, from what I can tell, chatter away to you endlessly.

Yes, but it's really pretty straight forward and quick, and it's a very useful tool. I play in VR and would be lost without it.
Create a new profile (optional), then start creating commands. You will probably find that running the speech recognition training in Windows will be necessary. In Win 10 search for 'speech recognition' in Settings, choose show all results then choose speech recognition, and under that you will see 'Train your computer to better understand you'.
Good luck.
You might look at using EDDI to add a long list of variables to VoiceAttack that you can reference in your profile. You would want to disable the Speech Responder (so that EDDI doesn't talk). o7
There is a setting in VA which allows the user to disable all AI responses. Check out the HCS Discord, someone there can explain where to find the exact setting.
You don't need voice packs. Just voice attack. I agree, the advice you get when googling is very misleading as to which various products a particular person might need...
Yes, you will need to program it yourself (unless you can download somebody else's profile and find that it suits you - for myself, I started from scratch, and it was a good choicer, and have widened my own portfolio of commands over the several weeks that I've been running VA.
Once you have some basic VA commands laid out - Maybe "Landing Gear" presses your keybind to TOGGLE landing gear. You might want to make your commands more sophisticated (for example - Separate Landing gear up and down commands. VA can do this but not alone. As described above EDDI will present variables that VA can use. I use extremely limited voice response to highlight wen a command cannot be complied with (for example, I say "Gear UP" when gear is already up, it tells me "Landing gear already retracted". That macro gets the gear up status form EDDI, and only toggles landing gear if the change is needed. Other times, I might use a confirmatory bleep for macros that might otherwise work for fail silently ("Fire group 2" for example). VA is also great for emergency reconfigurations- for exampe, I use "Red Alert" to select combat mode (if not already selected), deploy hardpoints (if retracted), and select fire group 1.
As mentioned above disable the voice responder in EDDI - that thing does my head in!!!! - I have temporarily enabled it with selected only reports whilst exploring, but when I get back to the bubble (tonight or tomorrow), I'll be turning it off again.... One other waring about EDDI - not all status variables update instantly - so be careful about doing somthing in a script, and expecting EDDI to rerport the change later in the same script....
Another VA trick I use is where keybinds are available for multiple states of something, but your controller uses a toggle bind, use left ctrl/right ctrl/left shift/right shift of the same key to select various states of that item....
Finally for now, target the VA commands at the Elute Dangerous client window (not the Avtive Window) this can be done for the entire profile by using the options button at the top of the VA commands list.
The OP said they didn't want a voice talking back at them. I wasn't suggesting that they needed voice packs or EDDI, just asking whether they had one installed as that might explain why they were hearing a voice talking to them.
I suspect it was in fact just the in game audio responses they were hearing.

Indeed, but also, as a "technically very competent, but new to modern gaming" newcomer, I found researching VA etc. very confusing as to what component/product did what.... It could be confusion with videos containing voice packs as well... (which OP, are nothing to do with basic VoiceAttack!)
I too hate excessive, or non-consise chatter.
