Real-time sound radio comms
« on: May 28, 2000, 12:36:00 AM »
Anyone aware of any plans to incorporate sound radio comms in the game?

And yes I have roger wilco, and it works perfectly for me, but it doesn't seem to be popular among the other pilots and it's basically a hassle to find a group of pple to radio comm with.

Universally available compatible voice comms will transform Aces High into a whole new game with way increased potential for fluid and fun teamwork.

Suggestions:
(1) Incorporate this voice comms into the game (? I heard something about MS directx 8.0 incorporating voice comms capability, whens that out?)

(2) Somehow make roger wilco a pre-requisite /companion program for anyone to run Aces High, so that it's certain everyone in the game has that software, and maybe create tags/options in Aces High that directly operates roger wilco (dunno how rw license issues will apply here, but I bet rw management will appreciate the marketing exposure in AH)

Hi Smerch,

If I remember well, integrated VoiceComs are part of the plan in the future, if you look at your Key settings, you will see that ther is already a key assigned to that future function...

Meanwhile, check out www.resounding.com/ah/  It's a Tuner for Roger Wilco with the AH channels...

With Battlecom being integrated into DirectX 8 I should imagine any online game worth its salt whether its a flight-sim or FPS will have real-time voice comms. Will it just be a case of using the new DX extensions to enable it into AH rather than coding in their own voice comms?

HT said...

"anyone got any objections to me integrating RW into AH?"

to which no one opposed... and so HT said...

"good, I'll leave it in then!"

Excellent!!  I wonder if there's any chance of it supporting multiple channels simultaneously... Probably not, though...

Camo
I dont remember exactly and I wont misquote.
The only thing I remember for sure was him saying that AH would ensure that RW was loaded first.
Sorry
