Hi! i just bought the game and are thrilled to start explore this massive game!

I would like to buy/download some voice commands and programs for the voices.
The reason i post this is because the last post about this topic i could find on google was in mars or may 2014. Much must have changed since then. What are you guys using? Programs and voice packs etc.

Best regards!

Why pay money, when you can use a macro tool created by the almighty microsoft for their own speech recognition software, for free?!?!

The experience is a direct function of your mic quality, and ambient room noise, of course.

Anyone know of a good, cheap clip on mic?

I use Voice attack, but have most things bound to keys, which kind of negates the point. Having voice feedback for macros is super cool though and the scripting is very intuitive.

An example of a toggleable landing macro bound to shift+L (fyi my bindings are different):

Code: 
Begin Condition : [Hotkeys] Has Not Been Set    Begin Condition : [Landing] Equals 0
        Set [Landing] value to 1
        Say, 'Requesting docking'
        Press down 5 key
        Pause 0.025 seconds
        Release 5 key
        Pause 0.025 seconds
        Press down 3 key
        Pause 0.025 seconds
        Release 3 key
        Pause 0.025 seconds
        Press down 3 key
        Pause 0.025 seconds
        Release 3 key
        Pause 0.025 seconds
        Press down Space key
        Pause 0.025 seconds
        Release Space key
        Pause 0.025 seconds
        Press down W key
        Pause 0.025 seconds
        Release W key
        Pause 0.025 seconds
        Press down Space key
        Pause 0.025 seconds
        Release Space key
        Press down 5 key
        Pause 0.025 seconds
        Release 5 key
        Pause 2 seconds
        Say, 'Deploying landing gear'
        Press and release L key
    End Condition - Exit when condition met
    Begin Condition : [Landing] Equals 1
        Set [Landing] value to 0
        Press down L key
        Pause 0.025 seconds
        Release L key
    End Condition - Exit when condition met
End Condition

Providing you're in the right tab to begin with, this requests docking and deploys landing gear. Cool, huh?

I have got VA and the Elite Dangerous Voice Pack and am really impressed. I am stumped however with VA when it comes to commands that are bound to buttons on my X52 Pro. VA sees keystrokes and mice moves fine, but I can't get it to see button presses on the sticks. I know that the voice commands are supposed to replace button presses and the like, but I will still want to scroll down and select things using the hat and buttons on the sticks too. Am I doing something stupid here?

Just to answer my own question. I was a little disheartened when I read on the VA Forum that a device driver would have to be written for VA to intercept button presses from sticks and that there was no plan to do that. But then I remembered that most of the commands in the ED Options > Controller settings gives you two slots for each command. So you can have a button press on your stick and a keyboard key press for the command. So with VA, you stick with the keyboard key presses - no need to faff with the stick buttons or sacrifice the layout you are comfortable with. I do find that VA sometimes doesn't recognize your command - or (my problem) in the heat of battle, you find a brand new way of describing 'Select Highest Threat' and have not yet put it into VA's lexicon.

And with a bit of experimenting (and aowqyaaw's post above - the pauses are the trick) have managed to programme 'Request Docking Permission' into a VA command. The only drawback is that when you instantiate the left UI panel, the focus is on the last place you left it, so if you are on 'Navigation' tab you are 2 clicks from the 'Contacts' tab - but it's a different story if you are on the 'Sub-Targets' tab. Maybe in the future FD will have shortcuts to specific tabs or menus. Or even better, an API so that you can interrogate state and act on it.

There's two ways to approach the problem of the tabs location. The first is probably the easiest, and was the way I originally did it. Just one rule - always reset things before you exit the panel. So you'd go the panel, move over to Contacts, do your request stuff, and then move it back over the the Navigation tab. Drawback of this is it can be a bit slow, and if there's any lag that affects VA's key presses, you'll have to go in and fix things.

The second way that I now use, requires a few variables to let VA keep track of where everything should be. So every command that uses a tab adjusts that variable when it moves the tabs. Faster because once you're done you can leave the tab there. Same issues with lag of course, but that's the nature of using a blind macro. I have some reset commands so if it's not right I can tell VA to fix it.
