hey-o, so firstly, I'm using MacOS Sonoma on an M2 mac mini, and secondly, let me explain what my goals are and what I've been/not been able to do so far:
- I would like to get states to change by using the numpad on my QWERTY keyboard. This is not working.
- I am able to use several keys on my QWERTY keyboard to function (but only disruptive ones, like shift and space), though no other keys seem to work. Yes, I do have Input Monitoring enabled and any other permissions that have been necessary have been granted.
- However, it does appear that MIDI and Gamepad hotkey inputs work just fine. I tried to find a work around that would send keyboard strokes to my external midi keyboard to trigger a state change in veadotube, but this proved to be too difficult to accomplish without learning how to write code myself, and that's just not my gift. ...at the moment, at least.
- I would like to use Voice Control on Mac OSX to allow veadotube to dynamically change states depending on if I say certain words. So if I say "bop" it changes back into my neutral-expression state. I don't know if this is a function that can be added natively, as it seems complex, especially when MacOS has a perfectly serviceable speech recognition program available, but that's what my goal is.
- A couple of bugs also:
- when I open the program it asks me to reconfirm that I want to allow VTM to access my microphone... 3 times. I have no idea why this could be, but it makes me confirm it 3 times in a row before it allows me to use it. I already have it authorized in my settings so I find this odd, lol
- also, sometimes it just freaks the hell out and starts glitching before crashing, but I assume that's just how things like this go sometimes when they're being developed by a small team. by the way, thank you for all the work ya'll have done on this app!
