Hi,

I am new to VoiceAttack and I was wondering if there is any way to launch a game that requires steam using the program?

Thanks

Adam

Right-click the game in your Steam library.
Select Create Desktop Shortcut.
Minimize windows to expose your desktop and find the icon for the game.
Right-click on the game icon and select Properties.
On the Properties window, select the text in the Target text box and copy it to the clipboard.
Create a new command in the VA profile to use for your game and set the command parameters such as "When I say:".
On the Add a Command window, click the Other button.
Click the Select a special action pull-down menu and select Run an application.
Paste the command from the clipboard to the command text box.

You will then need to break the command from the steam shortcut up so that the main Steam EXE is called from the command text box and the paramaters as far as which game to run are called from the With these parameters text box.

I have included a screenshot of an example.

Hope this helps.
