voice over ip problems

Archived from groups: alt.games.battlefield1942 (More info?)

Ok ive done the little sound thing at the beginning of the install and
enabled voice com in the audio section of options.But everytime I connect to
a server it seems to disable itself. Am I doing something wrong or missing a
step? Any help would be appreciated.

Dunno what audio hardware your running, but with my Audigy I have to go
to the options screen, audio, then start the mic test, then stop it,
then minimize BF2 (Alt/Tab), change the input in my mixer to mic2/line2,
maximize BF2, run the mic test again....and bingo !

A bit of a pain-in-the-arse, especially as I usually find servers with
my mates, via yahoo messenger, then have to catch up with them after I
fiddle with my BF2 settings........ho-bloody-hum !

'Realism is seductive because once you have accepted the reasonable
notion that you should base your actions on reality, you are too often
led to accept, without much questioning, someone else's version of what
that reality is. It is a crucial act of independent thinking to be
skeptical of someone else's description of reality.'-
