HomeBoy 1 Posted July 10, 2009 As I'm sure you know, there are six "hand signals" that you can communicate to your wingmen while flying: Reply Affirmative Reply Negative Wingmen Attack Wingmen Rejoin Wingmen Help Wingmen Split Just for fun, I decided to implement these as actual spoken commands. Now, while flying, I can simply call out verbally "Help" and my hapless wingmen will wander over and try to help undo the mess I've gotten myself into on the deck against a dozen Dr.Is. Well, it wasn't much work actually since I've been using this software called Game Commander 2 for a very long time and has since gone out of business and thus (see the hyperlink) can be found for free. In Lockon (I know, I know, a jet game!), I've been using it to do very immersive things like "Tower, request permission to taxi" and the like. Since I already have a microphone (which is primarily used to house my TrackIR "antlers") building a GC2 profile for OFF was a piece of cake and finally gives me a use for the microphone in OFF. I know it's not realistic to talk to my wingmen in WWI using a "radio" but since I have this TAC "radar" on the screen already, well, why not. Just thought you might enjoy yet another peek into the HomeBoy Laboratory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
