Paul/all,
I tried out the trial version of GC a couple of years ago, and found it =
very useful. Not like having real knobs and switches, but way better =
than keyboard. Especially for spoken commands like the radio.
It's also a source of great fun for the people around you. Trust me on =
that one..... ;))

Hi all
I have been GameCommander2 with a cheap headset/mic and it is =
wonderful , it allows me to control anything in the sim by speaking and =
having the words translated into key strokes.
I downloaded the demo which only allows 5 commands and 1 keystroke per =
command ,after seeing a reference on another site as to how it helps =
imersion and frees up your hands for other tasks.
There web site does say it won't work well with my sound card but I =
have had no problems.
http://www.gamecommander.com/
Well I was skeptical until I had got it programmed to do a couple of =
functions in Battle of Britain , dead easy programming GUI is very easy =
to use , well it was so good I got the full retail version.
I can now talk all the radio commands , this adds greatly to my =
enjoyment of the sim especially as I can now hack the code to remove the =
on screen radio menu and the sim voice for that command and appear to be =
talking to the tower/squad mates and getting replies back. It will also =
allow 'press to speak' allowing it to be used with Roger Wilco and they =
seem to have a reasonable help/technical forum on there web site.
Rating good product , nice features. =20
regards paul
