FSK405 Public Teamspeak and pubbie's usage of it

FSK405 Earl, Wed Sept 08 2004, 05:42PM

How come our pubbies don't use our public teamspeak as often as I would think. I mean, we have a lot of people to frequent our Teamspeak channel and it seems that a small number of those pubbies use Teamspeak regularly? Am, I just on at different times, or is it another reason? No mic? No headset? TS isn't downloaded? etc?

I have to tell you... I have been on there a lot lately and it has been a blast. The guys that frequent the TSServer (Sash, Yeti, R, Earl, Tom Morello, Ash, M, BenWa, etc...) are hilarious. They make the experience even more fun. At night I usually see 5-10 people on there. I think any more than that would require separate channels for each team. Its hard enough to get a word in on there if its just yourself and JIMBO for Christ's sake!

Yeah, I know Yeti, Tom Morrelo, Jimbo, Sentry, and sometimes Button Pusher as of late have been on, but I am talking about others pubbers that use our server. It's cool when a bunch of us FSK'ers are one, but getting to know the rest of the community is cool too!

GG's TS!

I would like to get on but I am still waiting for a Mac release. I am sure this will happen at the same time as the the port of UT. Then I still will not be able to use it. [ Edited Fri Sep 10 2004, 10:41AM ]

Hmm.. One reason may be that some are ignorant of where to get the client. A link on our TS PAGE to the download may be helpfull. Also a link on our Links page would be good too.

Too bad the TS client is not integrated into Quake itself. :(

I checked out the new website http://www.goteamspeak.com and did not see any info on the Mac version so maybe they are no longer planning on it.

I wonder if a proxy would work. Are there _any_ TS or RW-like apps for Mac? When I played at home back when we used RW, I couldn't use the mic due to bugging my wife but it was very helpful to listen. I'm thinking a proxy could send the inc voice to you.

Can Mac VirtualPC be used to run TeamSpeak?

VPC+Teamspeak can work but since audio processing is fairly resource intensive my guess is it wouldn't work very well, if at all, during gaming. I recently acquired some software necessary for my VPC setup and will be giving TS2 a crack on that - but like I said it's not really worth trying while gaming. Linux-Wildo is an open source effort to develop a true cross platform voice comm app for gaming purposes. Anybody with coding experience should join up and help with the effort. If the TS2 team isn't working on the Mac version anymore they should send the bloody Macs Apple GAVE them back to Apple. But a quick check to the FAQ forum over @ the teamspeak site shows that they do still intend on a port. We'll see. *crosses fingers and wishes the TS2 team the best of luck*

Some one with mac programming experience should approach TS2 team and offer to do the port for them. I would, but dude, i do windows, i dont do mac. ;)

it would be cool if the gaming products themselves integrated with voice comm apps or completly encapsulated the functionallity.

I've offered to help write the Mac end. So have countless others including programmers far more skilled than I. The TS2 team has declined all offers for help.

Some games already do have voice com software built in. I know UT2K4 has it.

I've heard a lot about this Teamspeak, but what do you need to use it? Headphones, mic? Phone connection? Any recomendations on equipment?

Good to see a lot more action on the TS server these days. Back in the day it was rare that there would be such a turnout. GGs guys. It's fun hanging with all of you, even that DART noob!

No, you may need to make sure you have the box checkmarked as "anonymous" instead of registered user.
