I think he means when the next version is coming out.

I've not seen R-DEV Twisted in ages, so I think his projects are either super super secret, or he is not working on it atm?

Wow. I need to learn to read, lol. nvm.

Is there an official TG server running mumble i can connect to?

**Mix0lydian** · 10-23-2009, 09:17 PM

No, but we have our own channel on the official project reality mumble server:
Address: 217.146.93.46
Port: 64738

TG has channels in the official Project Reality mumble server. If you just log on (the server info is stickied on the PR forums somewhere) and scroll down till you hit the 't' section you'll find the channels for team1 and team2 - make sure you get on the right one.

I shall be there.

New Mumble user with a question..

In terms of key bindings, is it necessary to have separate keys for VOIP and Mumble(and TS for that matter)? I am assuming that you could echo if you do...

I ask because if I want to yell something like "Grenade!" then I want to tell all teamates close by AND all my squadies who are not on mumble.

**DiscoJedi** · 12-09-2009, 02:43 PM

Transmitting on both VOIP and mumble simultaneously has a tendency to create feedback or an echo. If your squadmates are all on mumble, just use that if you want to shout "Grenade".

**Berlancic** · 12-09-2009, 04:29 PM

Does mumble have an new version or something? As of today it takes about a minute for me to connect, and although I see all the labels there are no people in the server, at all. And after a few minutes the "remote host has closed connection". I also cannot join any of the labels. Help?

//EDIT// Never mind mumble just fixed itself.

**chrisweb89** · 12-09-2009, 05:06 PM

That system would work fine for binding keys but like disco said itmight make some echo since mumble has less latency. Also you can't talk behind squad members backs anymore hehe.

as long as you can talk on mumble without activating voip as well, otherwise your SMs will be treated to a conversation you're having with a blue guy 100m away

In game VOIP's latency issues causes a delay between receiving VOIP transmissions and mumble transmissions.

For the case of someone being on both mumble and VOIP, chances are they'll hear something like "gre(gre)na(nade)de" which is more than likely to cause a reaction akin to "Wait, wtf?" rather than "Oh shi- get down."

Using the ingame commo rose for things like grenade can be useful, because honestly if there's a grenade incoming they'll not have much time to react anyway. Or just tell the most relevant people: If your squad is leading the attack, do it over VOIP, or if blues are near the grenade transmit over mumble if a blue is walking into the area/building.

**csxgamerz** · 12-10-2009, 03:26 PM

luckily CoDMW2 has grenade indicators... lol

I find that using TS or Mumble during firefights has better outcomes. It's not significant time but still helps. Especially when halting a car for mines up ahead.
