Title: Can't talk to teammates
Post by: chrsgail on December 17, 2012, 09:39:59 PM

No one can hear me. When I press "T" the sound mutes but I do not transmite. I went to control panel in Windows 7 and my mike checks out fine but does not work in the game. I've gone through the game options but can't seem to make it work. would appreciate some help fixing this problem.

In the game, try tuning the vox channel to your own game ID and see if you hear yourself talk. It could also be that you might have been vox-muted

I also heard the vox is dependant on the UDP network protocol, so if you have an iffy Internet connection and are dropping down to TCP, that might explain it too...unless I have that UDP/TCP thing backwards.

Chrsgail things to check/verify:

1) Mic boost set to  highest level---> Control Panel->Sounds->Recording->Microphone-> levels--->move the slider to Highest level ( usually +30db.

2) Verify your "Mute" switch on your headset cord ( opposite side of your Volume control) isn't  "on" or muted.

3) in Game.. verify your Microphone slider = 50% or Higher---> Preferences->Options->Voice-> **Top slider should be 50%-75% +/-


** and like Imadot suggest's  tune yourself in radio "V" and test it out.

Make sure the game is using the correct microphone device in Options->Preferences->Game Sounds.
