    Using This Guide

    We enjoy the benefits of a very varied community, due to this there are only a few rules to follow when using TeamSpeak or STO channel, these follow the principles of the forum itself. Whilst the behaviour regulations on the UFP Teamspeak are more relaxed, it is still expected that members use common sense in accordance with these regulations. Please refer to the links below for more information.

    For information on how to join our ingame chat channel for Star Trek Online. You can view the comprehensive guide HERE.

    1) Run Teamspeak 3 client

    2) Click 'Connections' in the top left hand corner of the screen, then click 'Connect'
    21126634372 8ef0e00614 o

    Section 2: Configuring your Microphone and Push to Talk


    This section of the guide will show you how to configuring your microphone settings and push to talk in the teamspeak 3 client.

    1) Run Teamspeak 3

    2) On the top bar (where we found 'Connections' in the previous guide) you'll notice on the far right 'Settings' click that.

    21136801025 d44059935e o

    3) The following window will popup. On the left hand side click the tab called "Playback" here we will configure your headset so you can hear everyone!

    21110578626 120abe6a86 b

    4) This will open up the "Playback" tab. Here you can configuring your playback settings. I'd recommend leaving 'Playback mode' as 'Automatically use best mode'.

    20514154454 e9944a8fb9 b

    5) Underneath 'Playback mode' you'll notice 'Playback device' here you can choose which headset you want to use (If you use multiple devices) If you have just the one headset leave this 'Default' and Teamspeak will use the default playback device as specified by Windows settings.

    6) On the left hand side of the tab underneath 'Playback' you'll see another tab called 'Capture'. Here you can choose which headset you want to use (If you use multiple devices) If you have just the one headset leave this 'Default' and Teamspeak will use the default playback device as specified by Windows settings.

    20515712303 dce0fcbf3a b

    7) Now we're going to configure your push to talk 'Hotkey' (The key you push when you want to transmit voice audio or talk in channel) this is preferred on the UFP teamspeak so unwarranted noises such as vacuums, shouting leaks into the channel drowning our conversations or upsetting other users.

    21144577331 479d960236 b

    8.) To select a push to talk hotkey, undernearth 'Capture Device' click the first option 'Push to Talk' and then the box to the right (highlighted in red) and click it. Simply press any button on your keyboard or mouse and that button will be assigned to push to talk.

    This means that in order to talk in channel you must be holding this hotkey for example I chose 'Control' or 'CTRL' as my push to talk button. This means that in order to talk in channel I must be holding down control to talk.

    Congratulations! You have successfully configured your Teamspeak 3 client

    I hope you found this guide useful.
