Re: This will make me sound stupid but still

And now for some gratuitous linkage:

http://www.goteamspeak.com/news.php

Quote:
Teamspeak is a quality, scalable application which enables people to speak with one another over the Internet. Teamspeak consists of both client and server software. The Teamspeak server acts as a host to multiple client connections, capable of handling literally thousands of simultaneous users. This results in an Internet based teleconferencing solution that works in a variety of applications such as team mates speaking with one another while playing their favorite online game, small businesses cutting costs on long distance charges, or for personal communication with friends and family.
Cross platform too!

Change the settings to make TS push-to-talk. Select a button you don't already use for BF2 voice.

Get in a channel with other people. Push that button. Say hi. Let go of the button. Marvel at the wonder of technology.

Re: This will make me sound stupid but still

You mean check on ''Disable Direct Input''?

Ok I can talk now and my icon lights up, do I have to select a person and then press to talk?

Re: This will make me sound stupid but still

Under settings-->sound input/output settings, do what you need to do to enable push-to-talk for your favorite button.

If your icon is lighting, then you're transmitting. You transmit to the whole channel that you're in (not subchannels, nor parent channels). It's possible to bind PTT buttons to "whisper" to one person, but one step at a time.

Re: This will make me sound stupid but still

I got the key binds set that were in the TS FAQ so thats fixed to.
So 30 mins before the clan game tonight begins I go to the Default Community channel and shout ready or something?

Re: This will make me sound stupid but still

There will probably be a channel set up for that specific purpose. If there's not when you first connect, hang out in the default channel for a bit and keep an eye out for people that are joining you.

Re: This will make me sound stupid but still

Yup - I've asked Apo to set up a subchannel in the BF2 retail channel for us for tonight's scrim.

Just turn up 30 mins prior and say hi - I'll be on
