Speech recognition in windows 8.1
I know that speech recognition isn't usually in a version if it isn't final, but I am using 3.7.2 RC2 of FSO and when I launch the game (with the launcher) I have the voice recognition option selected. It actually launches my windows 8.1 speech recognition, so I know its interacting with it on some level at least...but I can't use it. All I ever hear is a bad keypress sound effect. Also, sometimes when I am trying to get it to work...the stupid thing will launch an application instead, dropping me right out of the game. Quite comical. I know this is by design, that its meant to control windows etc, but has anyone gotten the speech recognition to work with 8.1 and freespace 2? Can someone recommend a good alternative (like a modern Game Commander)? Appreciated.
