After getting tired of having to speak the command to "secure the stopwatch" every time I called for TC 512 or higher, it finally dawned on me that the same macro string I created to order the TC 512 in the first place could be easily adapted to include the command key to remove the stopwatch, and Voila! - no more stopwatch
Minsc_tdp - gotta hand it to you - the power of what you've done here just keeps revealing itself the more one plays around with it. Now you've made possible a fix for what has to be one of the most annoying little stupidities in the game - Way to go man
For those interested, adding these commands is really easy - for ordering TC 512, you use the macro capability built into SH4Speech to add the following line in the "keys" column (column E, I believe) to your key_commands.csv file (use whatever ID # you want/have available and call it whatever you want - I call it simply "TC 512" in mine):
SHIFT-Numpad -&Numpad +&Numpad +&Numpad +&Numpad +&Numpad +&Numpad +&Numpad +&Numpad +&Numpad +&X
You'll also need to add the key code for "SHIFT-Numpad -" (which is the key for setting TC=1, which is used at the start of the sequence to make sure the macro is increasing TC by the right number of times to get to 512) to your key_codes.csv file - it's easy to do, and the code is "0x10+0x6D"
Then you just add a line to your voice_commands.csv file so you can speak whatever you want to say for TC 512 (I just use "T C five twelve") and voila! The time compression goes to 512, the stopwatch pops up and immediately goes away
You can do basically the same thing for the higher TC settings, just by stringing together longer series of "&Numpad +" and making sure that the "&X" is the last thing in the string, and the stopwatch will always disappear when you order TC of 512 or higher.
Enjoy!
