cs microphone
I have windows XP but i dont have creative. I have directx drivers. Ive tried the voice_tweak and the mic works there. My mic also works in other apps. When I go into the game, it wont work even though i enabled it. When i hit tab to look at the name screen, my name doesnt have the icon even though i enabled voice and the microphone input thing. What else is there that i can do?

Did you bind a control for talking? Go to the console (hit the ~ key during the game) and type 'bind q +voicerecord'. Replace the q with whatever key you would like to use. Now to talk just hold down that key and a little microphone icon will appear in the bottom right corner.

McTimson is spot on the money, if there is no icon, then you haven't bound the key properly. Give that a go and report back. If you still don't have any luck revisit my earlier post in this thread, and try a few of the commands listed. Good luck.

Have you tried running the Voice Tweak utility in your Half-Life directory? Does your microphone work in there?

What kind of internet connection do you have? Sometimes mic problems can be related to lag. If your on 56k or slower, that could be the problem.

Hmm ok.. there goes the lag option. To be honest I can't think what to suggest next, you've tried everything in my little book on "CS Mic Trouble."

Just make sure you have tried "voice_loopback 1" , as that's often a problem.

This page here http://www.kratzer.at/hs/voicecom.htm might also be helpful, give it a go and see. Good luck.

No, you don't. Just bring down the console, type it, and hit enter.
