Voice Chat Workshop by Circle of Arbiters [02:00 PM 02/08/03 GMT]
The Circle of Arbiters, a guild devoted to fostering cooperative DMing, will host a workshop on using the free software Teamspeak to help DMs communicate with each other while co-DMing games. Anyone who is interested is welcome to attend.
In essence, this event will be a group test of the software and a chance to discuss among ourselves how voice chat can be helpful.
Participation is open, but we ask that if you attend, you do the following:
1. Download and install the free teamspeak2 client from www.teamspeak.org.
2. Test your microphone within the teamspeak program so you can be certain that it works. To do this click settings, then sound/input settings, then "activate local test mode."
3. Make sure that your firewall software will allow teamspeak to pass through.
4. If you have a hardware firewall, please forward port 8767.
5. More help is available within the on-line manual for Teamspeak.
Have it all installed beforehand if you can. The IP and password for the voice chat server will be posted shortly before the game.
Login and we`ll try out how this works and share ideas about how to use it.
If you run into technical problems, ask for help in pre-game chat.
Note: This will be a voice chat test and conversation, not a NWN game.
