VoxATC Not Working

[DaedalusOfficial 0]

Hi,

 

So, I've been trying to get VoxATC setup all day long. I know what the problem is, but I can't seem to fix it. Basically, when I enable it, it runs through the tests fine, but then says that I need an English US speech recognition pack to get it to work. I'm in the UK, so my speech recognition is English UK, not English US.

 

So I went through loads of Microsoft's website files, and I've installed the language pack for English US. But I can't select it in the speech recognition settings. It still only says English UK.

 

Does anyone know how to install English US on my system? I really want to get VoxATC working. Thanks in advacne,

 

Josh.

What version of Windows are you using? You need to switch the whole localization - if your version adllows this - or use something like Vistalizator.

 

I ended up installing a second Windows just for the sake of speech recognition, choosing the US locale right from the start (because Win7 professional cannot be switched to another localization - only Ultimate can...).

I'm on Windows 8.1, I tried adding English US as a second option but you think that I have to make Us English my default option instead?

Don' really know about 8.1, sorry. I know that it doesn't suffer from the same limitation that 7 does. If you can set US as the default input method, do it. You can always configure your keyboard differently if need be. I'm running this setup on my Win 8 tablet (language setting is US but keyboard has the qwertz layout)

Hi Josh,

 

Did you ever sort your issue?  I'm having the same trouble - I used to have VoxATC on Vista and it worked fine, but I've recently transferred it to Windows 8.1 and now I keep getting the 'fatal error' message.  I vaguely remember doing something with the language when I had it on Vista but it was sooo long ago I can't remember what I did!
