Hearing your own voice in radio com as a selectable option.

[asterix]

If possible I would like to have a selectable feature that allows a person to hear one`s own voice real time (with no lag) when transmitting on voice radio. The sound level of which could be controlled by a slider like other voice radio settings. When a few seconds of limited transmit time gets over, the voice stops. Basically every time your transmission goes through you can hear your own voice. If I remember correctly real aircraft have squelch knobs on the radio that allow tuning the radio in such a way. I always tuned my radio like that when I used to fly. I just can`t get accustomed to the present system we have.

So the purpose is so you know your squelching like with real life comms you kind of hear yourself whole talking? Feel like that would be hard to add in

Just turn down the voice playback slider. When you start talking it makes all the game sounds quieter while you are transmitting or receiving voice. This lets you know when you have timed out on range.

As for the feedback, as far as I know most computers should have an option enabled by default that allow you to hear anything spoken into the mic but at a much lower volume. It's built in because humans use listen to their own voice when they talk to know if they are pronouncing something correctly. This is why deaf people sometimes mispronounce words, because they aren't able to hear this feedback.

 If you type your game name in radio box V and then use t to transmit you can hear your voice. There is a slight delay as it is recorded and played back but it is quite possible to do as you wish now!


   Wish granted!

Hey morph, maybe a button that tunes your ID then copick again to set back what was previously assigned. You know how the world is getting. No one remembers how to use CMD to control their PC. Buttons man, buttons are the wave of the future.

  I hear you I really do!   I think it would be nice to be able to drag and drop a name into the radio,this would make it easy to tune a squaddie or buddy in range without having to type the correct gameid! and possibly have a "last" channel tuned in the dropdown box.

   This would in effect make it a simple button push and mouse click....


   The radio system is often difficult for new players to understand,so anything to simplify it is ok in my books....

Listening to the mic input is probably an option in your Windows recording mic properties.

What is it with all of these computer users who refuse to type?  Or can't type without also complainging about typing?

You people need to just learn how to type, or buy one of these.

That is exactly what I mean.

Turning down voice playback slider helps with the time limit, but earphones still isolate my own voice pretty well. Maybe cheaper earphones are the answer here, will look into it.

As for software. I tried all the instructions I could find via Google search, but couldn`t get this to work. Maybe I`ll try to uninstall the Realtek audio manager and try again from the beginning.

You can already tune radio 1 to a player by right clicking on the roster.

  Yes I know this is true but as bustr pointed out people are lazy!  I consider myself 1 of those and opening the roster is another step.

  I was thinking in terms of private vox,not text. I think it would be nice if we could as I said drag and drop a name into radio V and have the drop down save the last tuned channel so you could go back to your channel without having to type.

   I would think with the new VR systems coming this might help eliminate then need to use the KB,atleast as far as the radio is concerned. Besides it would allow me to be even lazier than I am.......

   Will do Semp!        My only motive in this is to simplify the radio chat system.   Many old hands forget what it was like to first get started in AH,frankly the radio can be confussing for some.
