Update mumble anouncement

30 Aug, 2009 @ 11:57am - pie

A tutorial for Mumble. (Ventrilo, but then better!)
For members of the ÜbêR TF2 clan.

Step 1: Downloading.
--------------------
Go to http://mumble.info/snapshot/ and download the latest version (the one on top. It should be an .exe file)

Step 2: Installation.
---------------------
Run the downloaded .exe file. Install to a folder of your choice.

Step 3: First run.
------------------
Launch Mumble. A window will pop up ("Audio tuning wizard"). Follow the instructions on-screen.

Step 3a: Running the correct version. <======
-------------------------------------
After you have run the 1.2 version of mumble, exit it and now startup "mumble11x"

Step 4: Settings.
-----------------
Before joining a server, we must first change some settings.
In the main Mumble window, go to Configure -> Settings.

Now go to the User Interface tab. Under "Look and feel", make sure "Expert Config" is checked ON. Then press APPLY.

A couple of new tabs will show near the top of the window.
Scroll to the right (with the arrows) until you reach "plugins".

Under "Options" check "Link to game and transmit position" ON. Then press APPLY.

Scroll to the right again, until you reach "Overlay".
You can change the settings in this tab to how you like them. There isn't any "perfect" setting. However, here's how my tab looks:

OPTIONS:
Enable overlay: on
<Show only when talking>
Always show self: off
Show user textures: on

POSITION:
Grow left: on
Grow up: on
Vertical slider: all the way down.
Horizontal slider: all the way to the right.

FONT:
FixedSys, normal, size 26.
Maximum hight: 2.6%
Colour for players: dark grey.
Colour for talking players: white.
Colour for alt-talking players: white.
Colour for channels: default.
Colour for active channels: default.

Step 5: Connecting to a server.
-------------------------------
Connecting to a server through Mumble is almost the same as through Ventrilo. Here's how:
In the main Mumble window, go to Server -> Connect (or press Ctrl + O).

Click the "Custom servers" tab.
Make a new server, with the following specs:

Label: <whatever you want>
Address: s1.mumble-servers.nl (might change. contact me (thaCURSEDpie) if this is incorrect)
Port: 64854
Username: <your nickname, in clear text. Example: Valkyer>
Password: <if I have added you to the server already, you should use your username as your password. Including Capital Letters. If this doesn't work, contact me (thaCURSEDpie)>

Now press UPDATE.
Then press CONNECT.

You will now be connected to the server. (if it starts to whine about signed/unsigned thingies, just press "ok")
(if it doesn't connect (correctly), take a look at the error messages!!).

Now you should be in the server. You will see a couple of channels. Double-click on a channel to join that channel. (NOTE: YOU CAN"T TALK IN THE ROOT CHANNEL!)

That should be about it :).

If any issues arise, contact me (thaCURSEDpie) through Steam, or on IRC (#uber on quakenet).
