Had my first play on Syndicate server this eve flying only Spits. Great fun! And very chuffed with my first kill.

A big thanks to SYN_Bliss for answering my questions and giving me some tips. Friendly bunch chez Syn, my server of choice at the moment.

PS: I was not paid to say this....honest

Very possibly....I was 'newbing' it about a bit straffing ships and hovering over enemy airfields. Or you might have got me around the south coast radar stations...most probably when a glint of sunlight wobbled me Track IR

Best moment was managing to get back to blighty after an ME110 burst ripped me to pieces - that was some tough landing!

O.K., I downloaded and set up Ventrillo then connected and I can see Players and sessions. I haven't tried it in MP yet as I have to transfer my FT Clip to the new headset/mic.

1. How do you communicate with other players once logged on to the Syndicate server?

2. Can I test that Ventrillo is set up correctly to send and receive voice with just Ventrillo launched?

Thanks for any input/help.

The only thing I can add to what cheesehawk said is that you can bind your push to talk key to anything you want (joystick/throttle buttons etc.)

The other thing is there's a "test" button in the lower left hand corner under the main setup screen in vent. If you press it and go into test mode, you can then hit your PTT key and listen to yourself talk. This lets you know if your mic is transmitting, PTT key working, how your mic sounds etc. Once you want to stop the test, just hit the test button again.

Another thing to remember is that if you are in any of the tabs of the setup screen, ventrilo automatically mutes your mic. So if you are adjusting volumes etc, while in the channel, don't forget to close the setup screen or you won't be heard by anyone!

And if you didn't see this already, this is a setup guide I put together for getting you started with vent: http://syndicatesquadron.com/forum/s...rs-setup-guide..

Cheers guys, really helpful!

All working and it makes such a difference being able to talk and communicate with others.

Blues you are needed on vent! Please shoot down my team mates since they decide to fly together on IL2 after I leave for a business trip.
