I don't know when the patch will come out, but I think we should all probably plan on at least 4 weeks before we get anything. The PC demo comes out March 11. If it's not in there for the demo, I'd guess it'll be a couple of weeks after that? Anyway, regardless of how long it takes, we're all about to get real familiar with TeamSpeak


Ok, so here's what we've come up with. Take a look. Ask questions. Offer suggestions. We're working on SOPs for this, and we'll put together a formal how-to in a few days... see if we can improve what we've got here.

The basic idea is simple - separate channels for WC and RSA, with sub-channels for each squad:



The trick is moving yourself around and using teamspeak. To make this as easy as possible for everyone, we've created a standard keybind-set that we can all use. This keybind-set uses Scroll-lock in conjunction with other keys to do everything:

ScrLck + WC = switch to WC channel
ScrLck + RS = switch to RSA channel
ScrLck + 1 = squad 1
ScrLck + 2 = squad 2
ScrLck + 3 = squad 3
ScrLck + 4 = squad 4
ScrLck + 5 = squad 5

ScrLck + ↑ = increase TS volume 10%
ScrLck + ↓ = decrease TS volume 10%
ScrLck + ← = toggle TS volume muting
ScrLck + → = toggle TS microphone muting

To get this functionality,

1) Download the keybind-set here: FFoW_keybinds_01.kbn

2) To import those settings you have to edit your Key Settings:

That brings up this window - it may be mostly empty for you if you haven't played with TS much. (Shown here is what it looks like after you import the keybinds)

3) Importing will overwrite your current key settings, so consider saving them if you've got something customized to your liking. To do this, just click "Export".

4) To import the settings you downloaded in step 1, click the secret button, and point it at the .KBN file.


That's it, you're done!





We edited the channel description to include instructions:

We're looking at ways of automating this with batch-files and other means... if you have any suggestions, let us know!!
