Remove the radio menu?
-
It only pops up for half-a-second or so and I like it as I take it as a confirmation of my voice command going through successfully.

Ice +1

Isn’t there a parameter to set for how long the menu persists? I’m thinking that you may not be able to set it to zero in the GUI, but that maybe you can by manually editing a file?
Very interested, because I’m going to to be wanting to do the same once I have my cockpit fully setup.

Edit the menu box co-ordinates, so that it appears in a corner of the screen?

Good idea
Yep. However, having tested by using 10ms inputs with VAC, my conclusion is that it is good to have a confimation that the soft have detected the command. So having nothng at all is painful.
-
An option to remove it would still be useful, though, even for non-VAC users. E.g. When you’re recording, it could ruin a nice shot, or break immersion somewhat.
Maybe link it with the PrettyScreenshot, which can already hide the info bar and “subtitles”?

I think I have seen an Youtuber send voice commands to his wingman without the menu poping up. I just can’t find the video now…
So I think it’s possible… sorry for not being able to actually help.

Found it:
comms start at 03:23
However, if you read the comments section below, you’ll see that he’s not sure if he actually disabled it or if they were popping up on the secondary monitors which aren’t recorded. He’s also not sure which command he used to disable it: ALT or LEFT SHIFT + F3.

Euhh, isn’t the “display radio subtitles” option on the simulation page doing this?
From the manual :
Display Radio Subtitles
By activating this feature it is possible to display the radio messages heard in the falcon universe. This
feature is selectable in the configuration screen; however it can be momentarily toggled by pressing
the ‘ToggleSubTitles’ key callback. In the standard configuration a message will be displayed for 10
seconds and up to 10 messages will be displayed at the same time. As more messages are displayed,
the more recent ones are added at the bottom of the display and move their way up as the older
messages are removed. -

That’s for radio subtitles not radio menu
Two different things

Let’s not be that guy that responds to “I want this thing” with the suggestion “Have you tried not wanting that thing?”
-
I only point out how it could be useful.

Aah, now it makes sense [emoji1], clearly didn’t read the OP question correct [emoji15].
-
Thanks for all the interest!. I did indeed mean the radio menu. I figured since there was an option to disable subtitles and player pilot voice that there would be one for the radio menu. Might make a good wish list feature
-
It looks as if that was accomplished in the video…but we have yet to hear how it was accomplished!
-
I’m starting to think the menus don’t appear in the video because they appear on his side monitor that don’t get recorded, as he suspected. I tested the commands he mentioned and they didn’t work. Plus I don’t see a command for that in BMS keyfile.
-
Is it possible to trigger the voice commands individually on a one-callback-per-command basis instead of the menu drill down method?

If you look at the keystrokes listing in the Setup page, you can see each and all Radio Command already has its own callback.

Definitely : you just have to open C:\Falcon BMS 4.33 U1\Docs\Key Files & Input\BMS Keystrokes - Default and use the list of call-backs in the Radio Comms chapter to add your favourite commands to you .key file.
That’s what I did, so that on my HOTAS I just have to press a button to send the 3 commands I use the most without having to delve into radio menus, i.e. “wingman attack target”, “wingman rejoin” and “AWACS declare”, but you can obviously use a way longer list, especially with a voice software.
EDIT : The UK has woken up too. :mrgreen:
