I love it here at Chip's Fun House. But sometimes I do miss 1 little thing from the servers I used to play on. They had the default voice chat set to Team Only and flashed up messages to remind players to bind a key to "+voiceall" to talk to the whole server. Within a few weeks of this change, all of the regulars had a button to talk to their team, and another button to talk to the whole server.

I miss using Team Only chat to coordinate offense. (Or talk smack about the other team. Very Happy ) Calling out incoming when playing D to the whole server is fine, and I do that. But I always type out my flag drop position and sg location messages and I often don't know what the other O is doing.

Questions:

1) Might this be a mod that folks would welcome and that is easy/practical/Chips-Approved?

2) Do a fair number of regulars use Teamspeak or Ventrillo? If so, which one? What channels? Or is just a buddy thing with no normal "Chips Red" / "Chips Blue" channels?

1) I think this is a great idea, I definitely support it Good Idea

2) I use the VOO vent occasionaly with tiger, jum, gbaby, falcon, cc and a few others, its more just to chat outside the server (and listen to falcon and cc rip on each other) than it is to coordinate red/blue team attacks.

If this works as well as it sounds, that will be awesome. I just don't want to lose the global talk.

I had no idea that was even possible. Surprised

Do you know if this is a plug-in...or something built directly into the HL1 engine. Question

I don't know how this was done. But since there seems to be some interest, I will try to find out. If we are lucky and +voiceall is a built in coimmand, it might be as simple as changing the default and then getting the word out to folks to make a bind for +voiceall. I'll post back when I have more details.

I probably should have researched this more before starting this topic.

Turns out that +voiceall is an AMX mod command. AMX is a MetaMod plugin that has a lot of admin stuff in it. Probably more trouble than it is worth. But it does work well on the OWOL servers.

I use Adminmod...which is also a Metamod plug-in. There's been nothing new put out for Adminmod in ages. Oh well. Rolling Eyes

You'd be surprised at the new generation that's taken over Keegs, though.

In response to a thread on the Keegs forums how none of the old timers dont' play there any more...I spent about 3 hours playing there one evening about two weeks ago.

One of the admins, Hex, who first introduced me to their forums was there. He spent the entire time just ignoring me...especially when he was playing medic and I kept calling for his help. The lamers abounded also...wasn't much fun. Neutral

IMO, if a server died because of a switch in how the server is administered, then the server op never really paid attention to the server...

Never ran AMX, but AMXX is pretty good and popular on alot of servers. I don't think CfH should switch to it though, adminmod is great.

I couldn't find any plugin like this on the adminmod website, only plugins to adjust sv_alltalk.
