Guest Posted May 14, 2003 Posted May 14, 2003 don't think that a vocal chat chat is that hard to implement....so i guess it would be quite nice to do it (i searched for previous topics about that, but i haven't found any one...quite odd)
Remboooo Posted May 14, 2003 Posted May 14, 2003 don't think that a vocal chat chat is that hard to implement....so i guess it would be quite nice to do it (i searched for previous topics about that, but i haven't found any one...quite odd) Well, actually it is. You'd have to fetch input from the microphone, then encode it to some kind of compressed format, and then broadcast it to all others, make sure it adjusts its quality to the available measured bandwidth, and being able to recover from lost audio packets. Then you need to implement some kind of 'team-chat' function so you can discuss tactics. No, i think roger wilco is the best option for now. It's just to hard.
xerox Posted May 14, 2003 Posted May 14, 2003 use earlier versions of roger wilco to avoid aannoying ads =) Offical B.L.A.S.T.A.ddict
Doball Posted May 16, 2003 Posted May 16, 2003 Or just use a different voice program instead of Roger Wilco Wired were the eyes of a horse on a jet pilot, one that smiled when he flew over the bay!

Guest Posted June 2, 2003 Posted June 2, 2003 Well you can't type if your driving so voice chat is ideal for communication during chat. Plus, it's alot less distracting then reading text.
xerox Posted June 2, 2003 Posted June 2, 2003 good option for cablers, but ingame voice chat on 56k just lags everything personally, i would want ingame text chat, and team chatting perfected before i wanted to move on to voice chat. Offical B.L.A.S.T.A.ddict
Xucas Posted June 2, 2003 Posted June 2, 2003 i prefer a typing chat than a voice chat ... i don't really need to hear a lot of ppl i don't know, probably speaking in a language i don't understand ... and getting lagged because of it ... Gimme a good old fashioned type chat any day ! as for clans and such ... it's up to them really, as there are a lot of good voice chats out there ... ---------------------------- aka SuperVaso ---------------------------- Curious ppl suck! Now we know you suck ! What else can you do ?
Xucas Posted June 5, 2003 Posted June 5, 2003 The voice chat that's probably being included in 0.35 is it optional ? don't forget the text chat (without alt-tab, and ingame) if it is possible ... ---------------------------- aka SuperVaso ---------------------------- Curious ppl suck! Now we know you suck ! What else can you do ?
