So my VOIP isn't working and I'm sure a lot of other guys are having the same issues. I suspect it's the wrong device being selected by the game with no way to change it.

Any of you have a guide to getting VOIP working in v3.5?

I haven't played in 3.5 yet, but my problem in 3.4 was usually that *Windows* was defaulting to the wrong device...it wasn't the game that had the problem. Have you double-checked your Windows settings?

I will be fooling around with it tonight after work. My windows devices should be set up to use Voicemeeter as default which are the ones I want to use.

As far as getting SC to use the right devices:

Make sure SC is up and running, then ALT+TAB to desktop
Right click speaker icon in bottom right hand corner of desktop
Open Sound Settings
Towards the bottom, select Advanced Sound Options
Find SC app and select appropriate Output and Input devices you wish to use

It's so simple and elegant! I'll test this as soon as I get home. I'll need a guinea pig though...

Tried changing devices and all sorts of stuff tonight but nothing worked. Doing a complete reinstall overnight, probably try again Thursday time permitting.

Thanks for bringing this up, I'd missed VOIP being activated in SC... perhaps it's a work in progress and has been deactivated for this patch as they haven't gone out of their way to fanfare that it's up and working like they did for FOIP?

Unless they did when they released FOIP and it overshadowed it?

It's activated, just doesn't work for me. Confirmed other TESTies were able to talk about balls in game but I heard nothing.

I did that about 10 different ways, checked settings menu thoroughly, changed PTT buttons multiple times, changed windows device settings, disabled unused audio devices, reset my computer a few times, different SC servers, asked in concierge, enabled/disabled FOIP, calibrated FOIP, etc.

Sounds like you covered all the bases. I hope its a problem on their end.

Wait. Wait, wait, wait...have you tried hitting your computer?

Stupid question - have you tried your headset on another Voip application to make sure its working? I have a mute button on my headset wire that occasionally gets knocked. And if so have you make sure all of those are off before trying in SC?
