Help with Elite Dangerous installation
« on: April 05, 2023, 02:09:07 PM »
Hello,
I just installed Voice Attack. The basic system works and if I use the basic "My Profile" I can get Voice Attack to execute the sample functions no problem. My problem is that I purchased the Astra package when I try to exectute the HCS Singularity Elite profile I get the following.  First,  the path C:\Users\willi\Saved Games does not exist. The rest of the messages are below. I have spent too many hours on this to to no avail. I would appreciate advice. I am also willing to Venmo money to someone in return for consulting.

1:01:03.811 I'm looking for them here: C:\Users\willi\Saved Games\Frontier Developments\Elite Dangerous\
1:01:03.811 Error: Unable to access journal files, the profile will Not work!
1:01:03.804 Error unable To retieve saved games path, setting path to VA's instead.
1:01:03.804 VA's path = C:\Users\willi\Saved Games
1:01:02.784 I could not find the selected control scheme in the custom binds folder.
1:01:02.782 I'm looking for: C:\Users\willi\AppData\Local\Frontier Developments\Elite Dangerous\Options\Bindings\Not set.binds
1:01:02.780 Please run Elite and choose a CUSTOM control scheme or the profile will not work
1:01:02.778 This problem can occur if you have chosen one of Elite's default control schemes.
1:01:02.777 A quick fix is to edit the control scheme which converts it into a custom scheme and we can then use it.
1:01:02.775 Or you can use the keybind creator in the customiser which will create a new custom scheme for you
1:01:02.773 with all the keyboard binds we need already added :)
1:01:02.771 Say "protocol override [customise;customize] [my;the] settings" to open it.

For issues with third-party HCS Voice Packs products, you'd want to contact them directly via their forum, or their Discord


The first two (chronologically, I.E. the bottom two as listed) messages are the only ones generated by VoiceAttack itself, all others are from the third-party HCS Voice Packs plugin/profile.

VoiceAttack itself doesn't use the "Saved Games" folder, so not sure why that's being referred to as "VA's path", unless that's somehow getting set as the working directory.
That folder should, at least on Windows 10, exist by default though, as it's normally created by Windows itself when the user is.
