Devastante Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 If someone had a voice to text software on their computer would it work on GTA:W? Does anyone have any experience with this? Just curious if there would be options for people who are unable to type with a standard keyboard. Link to comment

Rasta Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 I'm sure if there is someone like that he can contact the management trough proper channels or an admin to advise him on how to continue. I am also sure nobody is going to discriminate towards that person if he uses text to voice software as long as that person is not gaining an advantage. I do not however image that person controlling the character or car in a responsive way unless I am missing something. Personally I don't know any software that would work in this way but I'm sure something can be found on the internet. Link to comment

Yeah there are many voice recognition softwares out there, just curious if anyone has used them with GTA:W and if they work. I imagine it would. I dont see how it would be a advantage. There's people who use macro key binds, have /me's pre written in note pads etc... Edited May 31, 2021 by Devastante Link to comment

Quote 7) Third Party Modifications And Software Any type of game modification or software which gives a player any type of advantage over another player is forbidden. This includes but is not limited to binds or hotkeys using programs such as AutoHotkey or macros on a keyboard or mouse. Client side modding to give an advantage is also considered a breach of the rule. Client side modding may only be done for aesthetic purposes and should never be done to change the function of anything in-game. Players are permitted to use a controller to play the game. However, due to the fact that controllers have aim assist they may not be used during shootings. All shooting must be done while playing with mouse and keyboard. Controller usage for driving and flying is acceptable. E.G. Using a vehicle mod to change the handling of a vehicle or change the size to create an advantage; Spawning in items; Use of godmode or giving yourself body armour without in-character access; Usage of keybinds, hotkeys or macros to replace roleplay or give an advantage in a roleplay scene. This rule pretty much states that you are not allowed to use ANY modification to your client that is not aesthetic. That is why I said that it would be wise to talk to an admin or a member of management to see where that person, who will be using the modification stands to avoid any unintentional rule breaking.

I hear you, The rule is pretty vague probably for a good reason. I'd hate to see someone get banned because that is the only way they can participate in the text portion. Link to comment

But that's the beauty of being in an active community as people will without a doubt help that person in anyway possible since everyone is welcomed. As I said, the admin and management team will assist them if they decide to contact them. Link to comment

Florida Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 I have this program from work it'll work on anywhere that accepts text input. You'd have to make a script that the button to activate the chat box. Link to comment
