Is there a method to use a headset with F1 2017?...XBox1

Recommended Posts

OK allow me to give you my setup. XBox1S, Kinect(modified to run on S/X). TMX wheel. Headset for Xbox and other platforms. Here is my issue....XBox 1 S and X have to use Cortana, not "XBOX" commands, although can be changed but lose headset usage. Cortana works for other commands so I know the Kinect works. But when I get into a race all I get is the sounds of the car and any peripherals there may be, but I cannot hear "Jeff" barking at me at all, yet when I disconnect the HS I can hear Jeff. Also I have no way to get the commands in the game to respond or even popup. I am assuming I need to activate the radio some how but I have no idea how. 

Can someone get me squared away here?.............If this is in the wrong category, feel free to move it if so.....and sorry!

I think you might get the most help by contacting Codies' support email or by contacting one of the developers through the forum.

After some discussion with MS, it appears that Kinect needs to be disconnected for the HS to work for in game commands. But for chat Kinect must be on, this OFC I knew. I thought to mention this in the event someone else has the same question.
@UP100 Thanx!

I wish they would add support for engineer commands via chat headset. Not many people use Kinect especially if you own an Xbox One S/X. It’s limited having this feature only supported by Kinect.

That's up to Microsoft, When they release APIs for in-game voice control that don't depend on Kinect, I'm sure CM will happily oblige.

Yeah they need to do something around the voice commands as Cortana uses headset, so the capability is there like you say
