Just wondering if Voice Chat is possible in a multiplayer game. Its not necessary for me to make my game, but it would be a nice feature. If it is possible, can someone point me towards the proper command. Otherwise, would it ever be a possiblity for a future update of DBPro?

Thx,

you could try recording the sound and sending it... but that would be REALLY slow

Yeah, like Bluntman said, you can use



and send it using



This isnt too bad if all the players have broadband, but otherwise it mightn't work. A possibility would be a .dll which would compress/decompress it to make it faster to send.

Whatever I did I didn't do it!

Great, thanks guys. I need the sound for an RPG that im trying to make, that will be playable online with a number of players, set by the server maker.

I hear that voice chat is a big step into a game. Most games with voice chat sell more than games without it, because everyone wants to be able to communicate to their friends, without having to worry about chat buttons, even though, some dont have mics.

On a DSL server, I would probably only allow 4-6 connections at a time, some with mics & some without.

One last question? Do I have to add a check sequence for checking to see if the mic is connected?

Thx again,
