Magnesium12, I doubt it but it might be on your end or the host reset the server. Keep trying and if you repeatedly cant connect will work on it

Thank you rude and you're all quite, quite wellcome. I just wanted to be able to give something back in return for having the privilidge of playing on the aa.com and DOA servers.

You guys wanna show your appreciation? Use the service :P
Its not free but as long as it gets used I'll keep maintaining it.

Okay, I got the thing working kinda, I can hear others in the room but they are garbled , and it seems they can't hear me , just static , which is what I'm getting on the loopback test. I don't have a headset yet so I'm using a mike and the speakers and I'm sure everything is hooked up right . I've turned the mike all the way up in the sounds settings plus the 20db mike boost and the mike is selected and not muted . I also have all the mike settings all the way up in the TS settings. Tried the settings at several different places , all with the same static return on the loopback .... Any suggestions ??

Thats probally your problem OldGuy. It seems weird but the MIC must be muted or it will be allways on.

Try muteing the MIC and try the loopback test again.

i better start running from audio out to mic in on my dvd.

Oldguy · 08-21-2002, 04:57 PM

Okay Jasper , I tried muting the mike in both the sound settings and in TS (one at a time) and now I get nothing back at all on the loopback. I'm thinking maybe I've got to reinstall the software that came with the soundcard (SB Live Value). I uninstalled it some time ago because it was causing some problems on my PC. The drivers must be installed because "SB Live wave device" shows up in the boxes on the audio tab in the sound settings but maybe I've got to have that control panel thingy that lets you set up different configs. I dunno , maybe it's worth a try. Whataya think ??

Jasper · 08-21-2002, 05:36 PM

Ok first unmute the MIC in TS.

TS shouldnt need any adjusting it self, only your recording/playback properties in Windows.

In both Playback AND Recording properties MIC and only MIC should be checked.

Try that and let me know.

I think as long as you can hear yourself in loopback mode you should be fine on the server. If you CAN hear yourself in loopback but nobody on the server can then I dunno. Behind a firewall?

ok, i got it to work, and i'll say how i did it in case it happens to others.

it turns out that when i start TS, and connected to the loopback thing, and then disconnect from that and try connecting to the fastattack.org server, it fails to connect. BUT if i try connecting to fastattack.org right when i start TS and not connect to loopback then it worked. so when i failed to connect all i did was quit TS then opened it again and then i could connect. somehow connecting to loopback messed something up with me. but since i got my mic working now i shouldnt have to connect to loopback ever again so i wont have anymore problems.

I just played with it last night. I think it is a really good idea. We should have another Dodgeball game WITH this program. I think that would be cool.

About for team channels, just have the captain make a channel with a password instead of the normal aa.com team channels(no pw on these)
That would be fun.
