Ventrilo Server & Info

________________________________________________________

I'm here gauging interest in a voice chat channel, as of now on ventrilo, however I'm not adverse to other servers providing they're free. I'm also not closed off to paying for the channel if the interest is there (perhaps sharing the cost maybe I hope??) I think a voice chat would make all our gaming experiences alot better, and we'd be able to communicate as a team quickly and efficiently. This would increase our chances of sucess and survival in a pvp/siege/cw/gw/blt situation. (for those who don't know blt is bacon lettuce and tomato and they're quite yummy ^_^)

as of now i'm working on serving a private server from my PC. The downside is it will only support 8 users at once (myself being one that would be 7 others) If we figure out that this is a good idea and that 8 is enough i'll happily serve it so long as it doesn't affect my game. (i don't mind helpin folks but if i can't play the channel goes.)

now in order to have a private server that some one else hosts we would need to know about how many people would be interested as we pay per user...(roughly $3 USD per 10 users per month with discounts for bulk) www.darkstarllc.com/ is my basis of pricing others are similar.

please take a moment to vote, and let me know what you think of the idea..and if you would please also post a comment and let me know of any other suggestions or comments.

also i do not want to scare any one away with prices but i do want to throw all the info out there and see what blows back. so please voice your opinions.

VENT SERVER IS UP! however it is in beta mode so if you want to join us just download the ventrilo client from ventrilo.com and the server info is 71.167.18.66 and the port is 3784

please keep in mind that the server is served by my personal computer and its the one i play flyff on...so if my pc is down or my internet is down well so will the vent server...it shouldn't be a huge problem but just keep that in mind.

also there is only room for 8 people at any time. so room is limited, shouldn't be a problem currently but if we need more space well then we'll have to rent a host. but for now this should do for us.

please contact me if you have any questions and if shy or bry or one of you mods wanna sticky the info that'd be great.

To sign in you just click the arrow next to "Server" and put in the information we gave you at the top of the page. There is no password so leave it blank.

Put in a username (With the arrow next to username) and then hit connect and it should work. Then just go to set up and you can choose your "hotkey" for speaking. I use my left control.

If you have problems with volume (*Cough cough* Like me) just go to setup again and then Recording(Input) and then adjust your mic volume.

That should basically cover everything, if you have any more questions feel free to ask me or Mazer or Bry.

UPDATE!!!!! You people now have AFK/privacy rooms

As you all know I've made a few rooms in the vent server which you all seem to use and enjoy. so I've made all the people I've seen in the server an AFK/privacy room. You'll see it has your name in it and its usually witty or funny. If you're unhappy with your room well you can ask nicely beg me to change it j/k but feel free to use it when you go AFK this way people know you're not at your comp. also you may use it to have a private conversation if need be. Please respect other peoples rooms and don't invade them if they're having a private convo.

ALSO due to the down time of flyff I've been tinkering with the Text to Speech. so if you go on your client to SETUP and then to EVENTs you'll see a button that says "all tts" if you click that it will speak to you whenever some one logs in, joins a channel, leaves a channel, tell yout he name of the channel you've entered (incase i move you while you're in game so you don't have to alt+tab to keep up with the chat.)

other than that Enjoy and if you have any questions comments or concerns ask me and i'll happily help you..(within reason)

p.s. some of you have extra phonetic treats in your room names if you turn on TTS

Awwe crap. Heh, I never knew we hafta pay for teh vent - I've kinda got a problem. One of the reasons why I don't gpot is cos' my parents don't let me use their credit card without their permission and I don't own a credit card ._.; And uh... my parents don't understand the concept of using real money to help play online games. Sowwie >_<

Fel, relax. I already said, if there's a need to pay, I'll take care of it.
No one ever listens. ~_~

And nice job, Maze!
I wanna have a mic already! Damn it! ;-;
