Mumble VOIP and PR (ongoing development)

[[R-CON]Wicca]

Have you checked if the server can actually contain 64 players in one channe? Like server channel, with players and squadleaders.

Will that make your internet slower, if yes how much?

And can it slow down PR?


Then i was wondering, if we keep mumble simple will it result in lower internet usage, rather if we tried implementing all the ideas we have?

I think twisted isn't trying to implement alot of the ideas the community has yet, he's just getting mumble to the point of it being ready for PR and plug and play.

Yeah, as he said a few pages ago alot of them are quite ambitious and a few are probably not even possible with the current build of mumble. Gonna copy and paste all those ideas to an appropriate area in the mumble forums to see what they think at some point.

Well I was thinking of a more heavily modified client which would connect to something like an SQL database and get the correct murmur server address from there, but that would also work.

However, I would really prefer it if the server channels were automaticaly created as people joined/left murmur. Much less of a headache for admins, when they dont need to go around making new channels. You could use a lookup table to give each channel an appropriate name, if that would help admins. It would not identify the channel internally (they would be refered to by IP), but it would help people navigate the server.

ie, client requests channel with IP.
server searches existing channel list for a match
if its not found -> call constructor to create one
user is moved into the channel
...
in the middle of use, clients are passed to server channels, and the server channels handle any squad reassignments.
regularly checking that the user remains in the correct channel, ofcourse (on activation of the mic, preferably)
...

Last user leaves a channel -> call destructor to keep server clean

Restart the mumble server again please, and give me an Xfire contact or something where i can ask for a restart.

It keeps happening again and again.


Edit:

Mr Robbie awesome told me that we should all go on Configure/ Settings / Network and make sure the TCP Mode is checked ON!

Otherwise we cant hear eachother

Perhaps the murmur server could be restarted at like 06:00 GMT daily? Might help reduce these problems, and I doubt many people would be on at the time.

WORKS

Maybe in a next version this should be checked and locked, like the distance and etc.

Well i hope so too Roman, id really like to see more mumbelers though, i always try to "sell" mumble to my fellow squadmembers, and also the team, and sometimes people actually do go through the trouble of actually downloading it and trying it, but when i cant help them fix it properly, i think most people just looses interest.

So, im glad the devs are putting a hard effort in to make sure its easy to install.
But i would like to ask, if they could put the "PR mumble BETA 0.4" in the main page, with the news, on the right side, or as a news update, so i dont have to say:

"Go to realitymod.com, then forums, then to general discussiun, then one of the red tagged which is called Mumble or something, on the first post i think there is a link for download"

Cant we just say:

"Go to realitymod.com, on that page there is a download link to Mumble 0.4"

[Rudd]

so people can have a simple link to mumble we have www.imgoingin.co.uk/mumble on our site, it redirects you to the mumble download thread.

I suggested a while ago that all mumble loving clans should have a similar link, cuz it looks a but bad if I put my clans website in all chat on another clan's server.
