Tango29 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 I connected to TS this afternoon in preparation for our Top Tank Platoon game. Simple routine, done it dozens of times before with no problem. Today, however, most was as it always has been, but for some reason I could not transmit anything. The mike light came on in TS when I hit the designated key, but no one could hear me at all. Everything seems to be connected, tried different channels, but always the same: I could hear players, but no one could hear me. I've checked through my software and the TS menus, but nothing seems to work. :confused:Any guidance or suggestions will be welcomed. TIA! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanPatrick Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Shotgun out the back door: did you check the levels of your inputs? In Windows, the controls are accessible through the standard volume control by clicking on the speaker icon in the notification area, then clicking the "mixer" link at the bottom. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tango29 Posted April 23, 2012 Author Share Posted April 23, 2012 Thx, SP, that might be the answer. I followed your guidance and found that the microphone slider was set to zero. I've adjusted to 70%, but can't confirm it as yet because it looks as if TS is down for a while. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Did you get it sorted?Happy to conduct a comms check if you need it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tango29 Posted April 24, 2012 Author Share Posted April 24, 2012 Hi, Mark, I think so, but I have yet to do a comms check on TS. I've visited a few times today, but either no one's available, or they're in game or in a closed forum. I'll try again tomorrow: if no luck I might just take you up on your offer: thx! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tango29 Posted April 24, 2012 Author Share Posted April 24, 2012 Hi, Mark,I have a small problem with my email, so I have an appointment first thing tomorrow to get it solved. Problem is, I've just stripped down my desktop machine that has the problem, and my Teamspeak, and it's fully disconnected in prep for the trip tomorrow. I'm answering you on my laptop! But thanks very much for the offer. I should have the desktop back and running tomorrow night, and so should be able to checkout TS. Maybe we'll connect then. Thx again! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Ah thought it might have been from a different machine. Hope the email issue get sorted. Catch you up later. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I set the mic in the Mixer at 70%, then joined the UK Armour group a few minutes ago. They couldn't hear a whisper. Hope to get this G--D-- thing sorted by Friday... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanPatrick Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 So, just out of curiosity, what was it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tango29 Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 Beats the hang outa me, Sean! First happened at our TTP game last Sunday: no transmissions, but I could hear my team mates. I checked my Control Panel - Sounds and Audio, and that looked all right. But at the same time, I found an unrelated problem: my email would not open. So I hiked the system down to my computer guys. They did a diagnostic and found in excess of 130 small "malwares" in the system, none picked up by my Norton because none of them were viruses. None was big enough to do any real damage, but they upset a few items such as email opening. No damage to emails or the program, just "you ain't gonna open" type stuff. So the whole system got cleaned up and optimized, an anti-malware program got fitted, back it came, and hey presto: I can be heard on TS! Lesson learned: schedule routine cleanups by the experts. Thanks for your initial help, though: most appreciated! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanPatrick Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 (edited) May I suggest one or all of the following: Spybot Search & Destroy Ad-Aware Malwarebytes SuperAntiSpyware CCleaner A through d are anti-spy/malware and e is a utility to free up disk space. All are free. I use the first two + Windows Defender, CCleaner and disk defragmenter regularly and also practice "safe" browsing. I almost never have a problem. P.S. Just noticed my post count :1: Edited April 27, 2012 by SeanPatrick Post of the Beast!!! Ahhh! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tango29 Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 Thanks, SP, I appreciate your kindness. I wouldn't worry too much about your post count. All SB afficionados are well above reproach...I think...!:diable: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Is the latest Teamspeak version used here 3.0.6? I'm 'fraid to say, I've never used TS. Back in the early days of SB I tried it but my puter just would not cooperate so I used typed comms during Multiplayer games.Are there any threads for TS newbs to view? I did a search and did not find any newbie TS threads. I've been to the TS website so I'm getting prepared to jump into the TS world.it will be a weeks or months before I try MP, I'm still having too much fun with Single player games but the day is coming when I'll want to do some MP battles. I don't want to be a burden to my team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Yes. 3.0.6 is current.Its pretty straight forward.Connect to the SB TS Server (IP and port on the home page).Save it as a bookmark or default opening connection.Set your headset / mic to support "press a key to talk" (otherwise we hear everything coughs, sniffles, etc.).Join the relevant channelAway you go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
