Question for people using Oculus Rift CV1, Elite Dangerous and HCS Voicepack.

Have any of you managed to be able to communicate within the game?

I was doing a bit of hunting in the rings around a planet for bounties when I saw a message on the Comms panel asking if I would like to join in a Wing. I would have loved to answer but it would mean removing the Rift, finding my glasses, typing the message, putting the Rift back on and going through that every time I wanted to communicate.

It looks like there is a speech to text thing but I don't seem to be able to get it to work.

Can anybody help?

Thank you.

Paul
 
Would like to hear answers to this. I've struggled with the HCS Voicepacks myself in general.

OP - I'm a touch typist so I ended up getting a 'tenkeyless' keyboard (a keyboard without the numeric keypad) so it would fit comfortably between my joysticks. But hopefully your post gets some responses on speech-to-text.
 
You could just open a voice channel with them in the comms menu. If you have a working mic, why not use it to communicate with?
