Voice Commands!

On the voice commands, I'd like to have the ability to give course headings off the bow. For example "Heading to port 10" to give you a course of 260 degrees if you were heading due West when you issued it.

There is allready a command for changing the course. "Set course nnn degrees"

Yea I know that. But you first have to determine the course which you are currently on. Then subtract or add the number of degrees you want to change. I was saying a command of how many degrees of change from your current course. Which would be very helpfull when in an engagement or evading fish.

@ Ol' Yellowstain... You can mail the JPG to me if you like, buxton at tidesofwar dot net.

What ever happened to the JPG I sent you?

Its very easy to determine. the UK version show a blue gmx logo when you start it up. and it defaults to install in c:\program files\gmxmedia\enigma rising tide and it creates a start menu group as start->programs->gmxmedia->enigma rising tide.
I would think that the US/CAN version replaces all the gmx with dreamcatcher and the Aussie version uses Auran instead of gmx.

++++ the 100MB downloadable patch ONLY works for the UK version.

@ Jesper

Reading the posts, it appears that the UK and US versions have certain differences.

Can you say where the Aussie version fits in (that's the one I have) insofar as does it need any patch at present ?

Thx...Warspite

Sorry J ...just read the pinned Download sites and saw that there is only a Patch for the UK...so you already answered my question in the last line of your Post

Great suggestion jdski.

Just wanted to add my 2 cents in on this. I think the voice command feature in this game kicks major a$$! What an awesome idea. There is nothing better then barking the orders out, instead of clicking the mouse and pushing keys.

I also want to thank Sartori23 for the 'Train Profile' feature under the Speech icon in the Control Panel. When I first started all I could get the crew to do was "Periscope Depth". After a lot of training, there is nothing I can't get them to do.

What an awesome game!!

As far as I can see, the most glaring omission is "Make revolutions for xx knots"

If that's the equivalent of a SET SPEED "nn" command, I agree. Very useful in maintaining an even pace with another ship.

There's a reason we don't have that, the throttle only has 4 settings forward - we didn't model reduction gearing.

If this is a desired feature it certainly can be added to the list for next time.
