Progress Report: I'm pleased with the way the German template works now... The tricky parts are the choice of words and the phonetic spelling, so that Game Commander interprets correctly & consistently. I think it'll be ready to release as early as next month -- that is, if there is any interest out there.

Ja, Game Commander costs money (more than SH3) but it is useful for other games, and it puts no noticeable strain on the computer while gaming. I know there is a freeware voice-app called Shoot, but I'm used to the GC interface and prefer it.

If GWX does not alter the command_en.cfg file, terrific. If not, I'll wait until GWX 1.04 comes out, then work with that version's file, too.

Points to note: Voice command isn't for everyone; if you run your speakers loud, crew voices or sound effects might be heard by GC. It helps to know the language, and to have a microphone with an on-off switch (esp. if you have to curse at the monitor). Headsets are ideal. You will still need the mouse for certain tasks, esp. on the map, but running the boat with spoken orders is wirklich toll, man.

I'd just like to know who's interested in giving commands auf Deutsch. Danke!
