Mumble / VoIP issues

Hello guys,

first of all: Im new on PR, id played years of BF2 and now i wanna try PR.

Normally id played on my laptop, but as it is nearly too slow for BF2, i reactivated my old computer (Win XP, 3.4 GHz Pentium 4, 2 GB Memory, GForce 9600 GT) to play PR.

I installed it and everything worked fine, but ive got some issues with Mumble.

Lets explain what i found out untill now.

When playing BF2 i got a problem with the VoIP:
After joining a server and squad my VoIP squad chat works without any problems. After a few seconds, i neither can hear anyone, nor talk. I cant even see the green "talking" logo on the right. When switching to audio options, it says VoIP is disabled. After leaving the server its activated again. Summed up: VoIP disables itself. I tried locking the "Audio.con" file in my documents to read only, without success.

That brings me to my problem with PR mumble:
Its almost the same. I join a server, and im able to talk (local & squad). After a few seconds im not able anymore. I tried pushing local speech all the time, and figured out, that after a couple of time (maybe 1 minute) it works again. I read, that Mumble restarts itself, when closed down but logged in on a server. Guess thats the difference why on BF2 it does only work for a few seconds and on PR it works a few seconds, then it doesnt.. than it does, than it doesnt.. a.s.o.

I also think there might be a connection between those two problems.

some more information:
I got a Dell Dimension 8400, thats also the name of the motherboard.

Soundcard: Intel 82801FB ICH6 - AC'97 Audio Controller [B-1] PCI


Im looking up the internet for days, without finding a solution.

PS: Sorry for my bad english, hope you understand what im trying to tell you :)

Greetings ax

€dit: BTW, teamspeak, skype working without problems. also when i start a voice test in BF2 or PR no problems

Welcome to PR,

1. How fast is your internet connection?

2. Start PR , join online server, spawn in, alt-tab to desktop, in bottom right corner, double click the PRMumble icon to bring up the PRMumble window.
a. Configure-> Audio Wizard . Use the wizard to test.
b. in PRMumble->Configure->Settings->Bottom Left, tick the Advanced tickbox, ->Select the Audio Input-

>Make sure you select the correct mic , click APPLY.
>Lower the Compression Quality to 20 kb/s , click APPLY.
>

follow this guide for your 32bit OS:

It might be a problem with you running out of RAM.
If Mumble has to use Virtual Memory on your HDD, it will freeze like you describe.


As WinXP is getting old, I found this old solution, but I do not know if it still works, also the screen captures are in Norwegian.. which I can't read:

Here is an alternative way to fix this for vanilla BF2:

Ill try in english:
[19:07:38] Project Reality BF2 connected
[19:07:39] Your Voice-supression has been deactivated
[19:08:55] Project Reality BF2 has lost the connection
[19:08:55] Voice Supression has been activated
[19:09:12] .....
When i recognize that mumble has deactivated, i minimize to desktop, and the moment im on desktop it works again. But as you can imagine its a bit anoying minimizing every minute to fix it.


€dit: some news: By lowering the DirectX Hardware Acceleration it seems that the VoIP Problem in BF2 is fixed. It works, i tried it for 10 minutes without problems. Negative effect: If Hardware acceleration lever is turned all the way left to "No acceleration" the screen in bf2 is freezing periodically every 5-10 seconds for 0,5 seconds. also the sound freezes for 0,5 seconds. If i turn the lever not all the way left to "Minimum Acceleration", theres no lag / freeze, but VoIP keeps crashing as before...

€dit2: Minimum Acceleration seems to work after restart. So the Problem with BF2 and VoIP is fixed thanks guys :)
Still remains the Main Problem with PR Mumble :/
