What Do Ya'll Think Of This?


Recommended Posts

This is probably a stupid idea, but I thought I would toss it out there for you guys to comment on.

 

I was thinking of having a/ hosting a real-time voice chat. There is a little program out there that is free and the sound is VERY clear on it. One would have to download the client version and have a microphone and speakers to participate, but speakers would get you in for the listening part. www.ventrilo.com

 

Topics could range from newbie questions to advanced Thompson chat. If anyone is interested or has any comments, post em. If you want to try it, we can tonight (once I figure out how to be the host). I would say sometime like 7-8pm CDT tonight.

If anyone is interested in trying it heres how you use this software if you dont already have it (lots of gamers use this software)

 

Download the client version:

 

CLICK HERE TO GO TO THE DOWNLOAD PAGE

 

Read the setup information after you install it and the IP is currently running at this number

 

67.64.14.169

 

Port is default.

 

Use your board name as your username.

 

If you come on the server, start talking and I will come in if I hear you. We will try it officially at 7pm CDT but you can join before then and chat if you want.

John, Jr., I downloaded the program. However, I don't have a mic. and when I tried to set up, it said, 'port not available.' http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/blink.gif http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif Not sure what to do? http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/cool.gif Regards, Walter

Thats strange, I see where full auto 45 connected and all, I am not sure. Check the website and see if there is any help in the troublshooting section. If FA 45 connected, You should be able to as well.

 

The port is the default one and is like 3784 and its open and working

 

Off to get the pizza.

Dont go to the store in the snow tonight! I am going to leave the server open for anyone who wants to join, just join up and start talking! We will do it tommorow night (I think, I may have to work late tommorow), I will let you know, but unless you hear otherwise tommorow night same time.

 

Join up the server is open!

That's funny, I thought i did too...But no such luck, just phone headsets.But, it's only 5:00 here so they might be open.

Well, I don't think that they are open anyways now, so tomorrow it is. Unless, i can't get the mic to work!!! And I don't have to work late too!!!

John, I actually tried that option too..But the jack on the headset was too small.(perhaps an adaptor would work?)
