Hello, I have started playing Arma 3 with Voice Activated Commands and created a personal profile that contains more than 500 voice commands in VAC. Testing it in the editor it worked almost perfectly, responding pretty well to al commands I gave to my soldiers. I selected (As it seemed to work well) in al commands the following times Duration: 25 ms Pause: 20 ms Repeat: 1 But yesterday playing the mission Scape From Stratis with a friend and 6 AI soldiers the VAC-ARMA 3 commands responsiveness was awful. Sometimes they worked, sometimes the command got stuck in one of the menus and did nothing at all. Something I noted was some of the commands just didn't press all the keys, for example: For the command Team green go prone which is supposed to to click 9 9 2 7 8 it sometimes pressed 9 9 2 8 only or 9 2 and stuck in that menu. (Also happened with SHIFT+ F1 which is how I have set the team red commands.) Some others were simply misunderstood by the program (VAC). Note than this didn't happen in the editor, in which I was playing alone and with more performance.

Do you think this is due to the less performance I have in multiplayer? Increasing the pause/duration of all the commands in the VAC builder could solve the problem? If so, Can I do it so that I can change all of the commands value? Doing it one by one is going to be terrible for me. Could this be solved increasing some of the Edited July 29, 2013 by Mitor.
Mitor, I have been using VAC for some time now and I can confirm your issues. If this happens, i usually repeat the order a few times or use keystrokes. Of course this is not a good solution. However, I cannot sinmply say that it happens in missions, but not in the editor. I can only say, the responsiveness is unpredictable. Although it is quite obvious I'd like to point out that the game itself - or the AI to be precise - sometimes doesn't execute all commands as expected.
Order a group of AI under fire to board a vehicle and observe the 'ballet' they are performing. In these cases it's the game and VAC is not to blame. If you are not sure issue your order by keystrokes to verify if VAC is to blame. I often see another weird thing which I call 'false positives': I have VAC listen to voice input and open the builder to see what the program is doing. Very often, the humming of the PC fan or maybe my breathing and other relatively quiet sounds are registered and interpreted as commands. Ingame these false positives lead to unexpected situations when menues pop open and other things happen though I didn't give any order.
Does anybody know how to make VAC LESS responsive?

I'm using GlovePIE. Assigned a mouse button for push-to-talk -- 'Microphone.Enabled = Mouse.Button4'.

Indeed, my own breathing also triggered some commands when I played alone, and I partially fixed it not assigning one word commands. In my current VAC configuration, I use orders (For example Hold Fire) when I want to order something to all of my soldiers. This meant I had orders like Stealth or fire, which were the ones that were usually triggered with my own breathing or movement.
So try to substitute these with more long orders like behave silently or fire your weapons. This will improve the recognition of commands and reduce that Noise Activated Commands, but the best solution is what I say bellow. Because the main problem came up when I had to speak with a friend and give orders at the same time. All I had to say was Hello, how are you to my friend and my soldiers were already dancing. So I do what the above user says, but you don't need a third party program to do that.
In VACBuilder, load your profile and click in the tab Profile attributes. Then you have some options bellow the Category Assignments. You can select any key or combination of keys to activate voice commands (Select Arm) This will allow you to only give orders pressing a key, and there will be less mistakes.
Thanks for the comments Ratszo and Mitor. I once tried GlovePie because I know it it is very popular application. Unfortunately I couldn't get it go work and I didn't understand how to program the commands. But I guess I will have to give it another try. I think I read that GlovePie has a kind of listening threshold which can be configured to avoid false positives or noise activated commands as you so aptly put it. I don't really want to activate VAC by a keystroke because it is quicker to just talk. I use a push-to-deactivate VAC key, though, which is the same as my Teamspeak push-to-talk.
This way I can at least avoid issuing commands to VAC when I talk to anpother human player.

Could this be solved increasing some of the. 600ms is 6/10th of a second. Put some zeros behind your ms., 25ms. Is 25/1000th of a second --do you see a problem? Yeah, 600 ms seems too much, Arma 3 should recognize faster keystrokes.
Consider there are commands that need 4 keystrokes, that would mean more than two seconds to execute the command. Yuvraj Movie Video Songs Free Download. Torrent Homepage Builder 17 Weeks. Anyway thanks for the tip: I will try with values a bit higher first, and I will start rising them till they work perfectly, as I have discovered you can set all pause and duration values to a desired value by selecting any of the commands and then right clicking the text duration / pause and then you can assign all values of the profile to the one chosen. This significantly eases the testing.
@5PoL You probably have Apex settings or something so that there is a binding conflict. VAC needs the following keys. Space, 1-0 (over wasd), F1-F12 and Enter. If any of the 1-0 keys for example also function as 'select main weapon' or whatever. The profile wont work because of the conflict. So space needs to work in a 'select all' / 'force command' (recommended) action, 1-0 must work in regards to the menu option box after troop selection, F1-F12 must work in regards to actual troop selection and enter must work as the 'execute orders' at the end of a command.
For example 'Two move now' = F2, Enter in keypress. IF that is not the problem, you might have some mic issues. Check in VACbuilder 'test phrase' to see if the correct commands are triggered when you say them. Check also in a notepad that the correct output is preformed. Lastly, there are more tips at the bottom of the Voice profile.txt readme files in the packed profile.
Good Luck and let me know if you got it sorted.:). @GoodeIgin Thanks:) You can use VAC with any mod as long as they dont conflict on the controls. While this VAC profile doesnt support C2 directly and its a bit complicated to get VAC to support C2 because of all the hold ctrl and alt etc type to use function. You can still use both mods at the same time to supplement each other. Like for example you hold ctrl and alt and say 'one' to alos press F1 and thereby select a fire team for the C2 system. The VAC profile contains a mod called wwAI which has a -plan and go- system.
Where you can for example say 'Five waypoint' (click several points on map), 'Six waypoint' (clicks), 'Go go go'. And both units will execute the plan like older Rainbow6 games. (Check VACbuilder via catagory filer on the wwAI to see more commands). You could try running al 3 mods to get the best features from all.
