Teamspeak Sync Mutator[Look here Ramm]

I was browsing Infiltration UT mutators and came across <this>

TeamSpeakSync

TeamSpeakSync is a server-side add-on for UT and UT2004 which synchronises the players connected to a TeamSpeak server with the players in each team in-game, effectively giving each team it's own private voice chat channel. It can optionally be configured to move dead players and spectators into their own channel to prevent 'ghosting'.




I remember something about 3d voices not being added do to people bypassing the feature with 3rd party chat programs. Whether or not you would want to add 3d voice chat ingame, it would still be something that may be an interesting optional mutator for servers to use.

That's weird, PR players have to use a 3rd part chat program to get that amazing positional voice chat.

Why can't we have both exactly?

I'm sure modders develop proper 3D sound feature after game release I only hope they use mumble, instead of TS3, which isn't that good in voice/codecs quality, delay and modding. Mumble has build in feature of 3D positional voice support for most of the games (UE3 is there already) and can be easily adapted to new games, like RO2.

TWI has not told their reasoning for this decision afaik. I bet they just don't see it necessary or needed for this game unlike a lot of folks around this forum (not just RnL/PR enthusiastics) as you might have read from this thread:

Imo they should at least try it out in their closed Beta to see how ppl react to it. Either with built-in 3D voip or with Mumble/TS.

And yes, Mumble ftw.

Mumble please, TS is horrible

Unfortunately not enough people use Mumble, but it is great.

It would be cool if steam adsed mumble to their software survey.

TS, Mumble or Vent, I think the concept iteself is interesting.
