F1 2012 Use your voice to control fuel, brake bias and so on!

[Chicane500]

Changing fuel, tyres and brakes too much work? Not enough buttons on your wheel for all those macros? There's a mighty 'button' available: your voice!
Demonstration:

Hardware needed:
- a microphone (even very cheap one will do)
Software needed:
- GlovePIE (I use version 0.43) it's free and available from various sources, such as http://glovepie.org/GlovePIEWithoutEmotiv043.zip
When the program has opened, you can start writing a script. To get you started very quickly, here's mine with some instructions included:
When finished writing you can save it, and then run it. Enjoy!

//GlovePIE script created by Chicane
//In this script: Make fuel choices, tyre choices and brake bias choices with YOUR VOICE in F1 2012! Also added: Car Status switch and instantly restart your time trial hotlap.
//INSTRUCTIONS
//set your ingame quickmenu keys to WASD-keys and car status to Q-key or edit this script
//if your voice isn't understood very well or your mic is worse than awful, try changing the green 3 after ", and in front of ) to another value from 0 to 6. It's a tolerance setting. Default = 2
//you should leave a couple of seconds between 2 commands, else the 2nd command may not be executed correctly. This is the same with using scripts in for example Logitech Profiler when creating macros so the problem is somewhere ingame. Experiment to find out whatever is the cross-over point.
//The list of possible commands, actions ande scripts is huge. Have a read through the documentation to learn more. GlovePIE forum: http://glovepie.org/forum/index.php
//END OF INSTRUCTIONS
//I've managed to create this script thanks to other people sharing their knowledge, and therefore I'm sharing this too! You're allowed to adjust and share this script.
//disclaimer: Script has been tested with English version of Windows7, and English language version of the game. I take no responsibility fole for any damage (including hardware, software and your voice) by using (parts of) this script.
 
//ACTIVATE AND IGNORE MICROPHONE OPTIONS
//Microphone.Enabled = joystick.Button11 //button is 3rd gear on the H-shifter of G27, option to only let the script execute commands when you hold this button. Can be useful if you're on voice communication with others, such as Teamspeak and you do NOT use push-to-talk in Teamspeak. Adjust the button to your liking.
Microphone.PushToNotTalk = joystick.Button12 // (when in 4th h-shifter gear on G27) option to only let the script execute commands when you DON'T hold this button. Can be useful if you're on voice communication with others, such as Teamspeak and you use push-to-talk in Teamspeak. Adjust the button to your liking.
 
//FUEL MIX CHOICES

lol awesome Mod

 

[Jack Vos]

oh yeah was looking for a free program a while to use voice recognition

used many moons ago a flightsim program to use your voice for changing settings etc in GTR

gonna try this for sure on racegames and ETS2 and and and

thanks for pointing to this great tool!

 

[Dan Hawkins]

What a great little tool!

 

[151kbar151]

This is not working. Shouting like ***** but nothing happens. Using in F1 2014.

 

[Graham Laing]

Stuff has probably changed since F1 2012, and F1 2014 may use a different combination of keys.

F1 2012 didn't have brake bias for example .........

 

[151kbar151]

F1 2012 had brake bias man (see the video in first post). And I use keys as in instructions,

 

[Graham Laing]

Fair enough, I must have been thinking of F1 2011

So I'll leave you to it ..........

shame it doesn't work for you. Have you tested if you have notepad opened and you press run and say one of the commands, you're getting an output in notepad? If you do, you have to change some keybinds in the game. If you don't, it has something to do with the script or glovepie. It's been years since I created this thread, so I don't remember if you have to hold a button, according to the script.

Anyway, to test stuff out: below is a very short script. Have this running, and open notepad, and say 'mix one' and see if a 'w' appears in notepad, everytime you say it. If it doesn't, then it's something with the mic or glovepie or maybe languague issue (I didn't test for non-english windows versions, so I don't know how those behave).

IF Said("mix one",1)
press w
wait 40ms
release w
wait 40ms
