Sometimes it turns out that two versions are accepted equally by the recengine so I compared up to 32 only slightly different samples to find out the best ones. It is quite interesting.

Yes, I tried to write the voice commands so that several different ways of issuing the same command (in both German and English) could be understood by the SAPI and properly acted upon. Feel free to add additional commands into your version to "personalize" it for the way you like to give your orders. I think you see (from a later post) that you have to spell the voice order out phonetically in the voice_commands.csv file. There is no "automated" way to get a phonetic spelling that I am aware of. Moreover, dialectic pronunciations can also cause problems - those you may have to personalize as well.
Make sure you read the SH4Speech Help files to understand how to properly add and remove commands from the .csv files. PM me if you have difficulties with it.

OK, I owe Tomcattwo et al an apology. Should have known it was something I was doing.  I now get everything to work except the known tube one opening problem.
I have learned that you need to keep holding down the ` key longer to let the program catch up. If you do, it just works perfectly with every command I've thrown at it. Although I've not tried the helm/rudder orders ("come right to 8 degrees" etc).
My bad, guys. It's a great program...even better once we can better manage the tubes. Always have the old mouse to use as a wrench to open and close tubes 2 through 5/6!

Heh no problem
Version 1.01 should allow for proper and correct operation of all tubes. You can download it from page 1 of this thread (just click on the link in my sig). Please follow the instructions carefully for updating from V1.00 to V1.01. Some other hints and tips for SH3Speech users: 1) Read the FAQ - it tells you where common problems lie (such as holding down the press to talk key long enough, or how to change from press to talk mode to "open mike" mode). 2) Make sure you look at the IKH (Innenkommunikationen Handbuch) for what orders are recognized.
For helm orders, we have not yet found a good way to DIRECTLY order a course to steer - course orders are given by telling the helmsman "Come left ____ degrees" or Come right ____ degrees" or in German "Auf ____ grad steuerbord (backbord) gehen" rather than "Come rigght
TO 8 degrees"
The reason we cannot give direct course orders is that SHSpeech would have to know what course you are on in SH3 at any given instant in order to be able to properly calculate what course you wanted to be on when you gave a new course order. This is because we cannot directly input the "Steer ____ course" command in SH3 (there is a keypress order you can see in the commands_en.cfg file with SHKey, but the command doesn't work) - course orders can only be given by clicking on the course dial in game. When you order "come right ___ degrees", SHSpeech knows how far to move the mouse from "top dead center" of the dial to carry out your order. But unless it always knows what true course value
is at the top of the dial at any point in time, it can't know how much to translate the mouse to get to the (new) value you want. I tried to find a way but as yet have not been successful, so we are stuck with the less desirable, bus still workable, alternative of ordering the helm to come ___ right or left.
In real life (at least in the US Navy) the Captain of a ship would NOT directly order a course to the helmsman anyway or he would automatically (according to the Navy Regulations) assume control of the conn from the Conning Officer (who is usually the Officer of the Deck, but not always), which is usually not desirable (unless the ship is standing into danger, and then the CO WOULD do this, and immediately the quartermaster would announce "The Captain has the Conn!") However, the Captain often WILL tell the Conning Officer to come right or left some number of degrees if he/she wants the Conning Officer to do that for some reason, without assuming control of the conn himself.

That link leads to a page with half a dozen downloads and not terribly clear descriptions of what each one does (in fact some of them don't even have descriptions - thanks Microsoft!  ).
I looked through the mod documentation and couldn't find anything telling me which of those downloads I want. Can anyone help?
Thanks,
OLC

OLC, sorry bout that
- We'll clarify which SAPI file to download in the next update to SH3Speech. As Friedl9te said, the correct download is: SpeechSDK51.exe
I really hope you enjoy this program as much as I have enjoyed OLC GUI and OLC Environment
