When online, how do you use the message board thingy at the bottom. Just have a keyboard, no mic.

Scott,
you have to use certian keys on your board to pop up certian channels to type to.................

the   /  key is for  your first set Channel

the   Shift + /  keys  are for your 2nd set Channel  ( shift combined with the / key )
the   Ctrl + /  keys  are for your 3rd set Channel  ( Ctrl combined with the / key )

the   Alt + /  keys  are for your 4th set Channel  ( Alt combined with the / key )

hit enter once you have typed your message out, to open text box again use one of the keys as described above, remember the text has a buffer and will cut you off so keep your messages short


you can for instance set channel 1 to channel 200 by editing the drop down box for that channel or any other channel even can type in a persons in-game gameid and talk private to only that person, please take a look at the AH help index link I posted for you or go to    http://www.netaces.org

you will find a load of valuable info to help your 1st few days much more enjoyable...........

once you have read up on the radio usage, go to the Training Arena and ask a Trainer or if one is not available someone if they can help you with view setups and stick setups.........

enjoy & welcome to aces High  :)
