Author Topic: Vox a good replacment for my game commander (Read 14730 times)

I want to use Vox.... as a replacement for my Game Commander program. GC is a voice control application for games. I have disability that affects my hands and that's why I use it. I was hoping that someone could help with a starter code for what I need.

1 key Main Weapon
2 key Secondary Weapon
R key Reload
Spacebar Jump
Q key for spotting

Those are just a few, but once I how it's done. I can add more by editing it. I hope someone can help me with this task.

Ok, test the attached xml-file. This is an example how it work.

Import it on the right in VC-Editor with "open a new bin file" and "drag and drop" it on the left.

You can edit the commands and phrases. Not all games work with key-emulation, but test it.

Doesn't seem to work, I also opened notepad said reload and it didn't type the letter R in there. So it can't be sending a keystroke.

Do you have test in the game?

Repoman · « **Reply #5 on:** November 17, 2011, 03:54:13 PM »

I tested in game first and than tried notepad for keystroke

ok thanks for trying.

does the same game respond to keys from game commander?

jitterjames · « **Reply #11 on:** November 17, 2011, 04:23:06 PM »

is it possible that the keyboard emulation performed by eventGhost works?

Repoman · « **Reply #12 on:** November 17, 2011, 04:40:24 PM »

Yes GC works for the Game.

jitterjames · « **Reply #13 on:** November 17, 2011, 05:02:12 PM »

You'll just have to stick with that then, unless I can figure out a way to emulate keyboard for games that use directInput. So far I have had no luck with that.

jitterjames · « **Reply #14 on:** November 23, 2011, 11:31:56 AM »

I am working on a plugin that uses directX / directInput. I am hoping that it will allow for keyboard emulation in most games that use direct Input.

Preliminary test show that it seems to work in at least one game where VC's inputkeys did not work.

Is there anyone here who can help beta test with some games when it is ready?
The wider an array of games that we can test on the better, also if we can test on 32 and 64 bit systems.

I don't want to get anyone's hopes up on this, it may turn out to be a total failure. Lower-level Keyboard emulation in windows is tricky stuff (at least for me).
