[MAC] Controlling WoW with you Voice!

[Swt]

Arh i went all that picture taking and editing them a little, to later find out that Flying Piggy already made a similar guide. So I'm aware that im posting someone already posted, but this is more for people who like using this:

:worthless:
(yeah finally had an excuse to use that smilie!)


Ok so I recently saw somewhere here on MMOwned, that someone thought it would be cool if you could control WoW with your voice in Mac OS X. And guess what! You can! I use this alot when multiboxing on a single Mac computer, and it is even very efficient even if you dont multibox!

Before we get started i just want to tell you that voice commands will not be able to move your character, mine or farm motes and sure alot of other things, but itit can cast spells, start macros, skin etc.

Now heres the Tut:



















I didn't get a last shot of it in action, but i think you get the point now Open World of Warcraft and say "Cast Starfire" (if thats what your command are) while pressing ESC (if you got that turned on)

Voice command does not only work in WoW, but in other applications too! I've for example made a Commad+D shortcut for Firefox which bookmarks the page, and a ALT+Space which toggles Ubiquity. Alot of stuff can be done with this.

Have fun

Wouldnt the voice be slower then the keyboard?

[Dhoomwalker]

Omg this works.

pretty neat, gj, and nice effort. however, i don't think this is really very useful in game, i know i can press "2" much faster than i can say "Cast Starfire".

+rep! thats awsome! even tho it i a mac

[TwoStep]

Nice but you would be constantly talking in PvP :P

Thanks for the rep!

Yes it is faster to just press 2, but for shortcuts like CTRL+ALT+L or something, i find it much more pleasent to just say "Consume Mana Biscuit", instead of interferring my contenius (is that how it is spelled?) macro spamming (hunter's a main), but as i said i use voice commands mainly for multiboxing.

I can make a Mac Multibox Guide if anyone would like that?

And i dont think you would be able to do danish voice commands, since currently only supported text to speech thingies in Mac are english, and they use them to define how words are pronounced, so English only atm, but maybe some Danish text-speech patches exists? Would be cool because im Danish too

Thanks for a great tutorial. Flying Piggy never really gave a tutorial, more like a "heads-up, it's there" :P

A multiboxing guide using voice would indeed be awesome. I've just started boxing on my mac, and spent quite some time making things work.

You can also do this in Windows Vista mates.
