Are the previous versions available for download? I could not find a link to other downloads.

Unfortunately not since they are designed to be backwards compatible. DJ is working on an update he may be able to fix this in the same update.

Rich, Thank you. That is a good question Skinnerfam95, How can I get earlier versions of ARC?

Having problem with Waitforspeech command and noticed this thread when looking for a solution.

Is it still broken? I throw the error below in WIN 8 even though I have checked that the language and grammar match.


WaitForSpeechCommand Error: System.InvalidOperationException: The language for the grammar does not match the language of the speech recognizer.
   at System.Speech.Recognition.RecognizerBase.ThrowIfSapiErrorCode(SAPIErrorCodes errorCode)
   at System.Speech.Recognition.RecognizerBase.LoadSapiGrammarFromCfg(SapiGrammar sapiGrammar, Grammar grammar, Uri baseUri, Boolean enabled, Single weight, Int32 priority)
   at System.Speech.Recognition.RecognizerBase.LoadSapiGrammar(Grammar grammar, SapiGrammar sapiGrammar, Boolean enabled, Single weight, Int32 priority)
   at System.Speech.Recognition.RecognizerBase.LoadGrammar(Grammar grammar)
   at  ?.(Int32 , String[] )

Or is this a Win8 issue?
