Someone talking...

So, I was driving along, and I decided to open my recording software to have proof of any noobs in case I had to report them, which I do fairly often given the level of noobs who can't drive in MP. I then pull over, Alt-Tab out, open my recording software, start recording my game, and just when I Alt-Tab back in to ATS, I hear someone talking. I only heard the end of what the person was saying. They said "[whatever they were saying before]" and then my Steam username (no, I'm not telling what it is). I was saying in the chat in-game (Y key) that there are so many noobs that can't drive in MP, so I'm guessing he was talking about that. I'm not sure if this was in the recent update this was added, I don't know. I don't have any voice chat programs open (ex. TeamSpeak), just ATS MP, Google Chrome, and Spotify (never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down).

 

Slightly interesting. Any answer is appreciated.

There is now a CB radio in both ETS2MP and ATSMP. This allows players to talk in game over multiple channels. You most likely heard people through this.

Okay. That sounds about right. I listened to my recording and they said something like "Safe driving, [my username]." I was talking in the chat about the level of noobs on the servers. (by chat I mean the chat that comes up when you hit Y)

 

I did not know that - I just knew there was an update because I went to launch ATSMP earlier and it said invalid version, so I updated.

Don't know if you know this but press "V" to talk, if you go into the MP settings there should be an option for your mic volume and player volume. Also if you activate the cursor you can press the buttons on the CB to switch channels as well as turn it off. Far button is how you turn it off and the big button (far right) is how you switch channels.

Wait, do you mean in the truck or in the menu when you press tab?

Yeah, I figured that out after looking in my truck.

 

Edit: For some reason I quoted you twice because of this slightly confusing forum layout.

You also need to be on the same channel to be able to hear players. As in, if you're on channel 20, you'll only hear those on channel 20, not on every channel.

Make sure your mic is not too loud, you'll come across people who are shouting in their mics because they don't know they have it on max volume.

 

Most people are on channel 19, as it's the default channel.
