TeamSpeak 3 Client 3.0.0-rc1-pre releases

**Peter** · 13-01-2011, 17:09

Why the name rc1? Why a -pre release?
our next client release will be called "TeamSpeak 3 Client 3.0.0-rc1" (short for "release candidate one") and it will contain all the features we planned to have ready for a stable 3.0.0 release.

Lots of changes have queued up that have not been tested enough to allow us to flat out release rc1 right away - this is where this rc1-pre version comes in. We ask anybody to test it and to provide feedback in this thread.

Important changes:
- We completely rewrote our sound system, we do not use the FMOD library any more but rather our own custom code. This allowed us to improve latency and add features like better recording, echo cancellation and more control over the sound system for plugins. Currently this is only active on windows.
- A New Sound-pack is used (still a couple of sounds missing, see below)
- The "Easy Permission" dialogue was added to easily setup your permissions.
For more changes, view the changelog.

Please test these and report and bugs or other problems you find!

How to get it
- Go to where you installed teamspeak. There should be (among other things) a executable called "update"
- In this folder create or edit the file called "update.ini", after you are done with it the contents should be:

Code:

[Channel]
beta=true

- Save the file, start TeamSpeak and go to Help->Check for Update, it should report a new version available.

Known Issues (on our TODO already)
- On Windows XP sound sometimes stutters when minimizing or maximizing windows
- Not all sounds for the new sound-pack are included yet (e.g. you have been poked)
- The new (NOFMOD) sound system is not yet present for linux and mac
- If you are trying to build plugins with the new version you need to define "NOFMOD" and also use a "special" API version (see example code for detail).

Good work guys! Only comment I have so far is that maybe the phonetic channel name should be on the main tab with the channel description. Not sure what others think on that though. I like the tabs for the EDIT CHANNEL window though

I don't like this suggestion. The "Basic" Create/Edit channel view (the first tab) should not contain anything that makes an inexperienced user go "What is this? TeamSpeak is so complicated"

Hi folks,

the next pre-release for our upcoming release candidate is available fixing all bugs that were reported to us. Please view this link on instructions how to get it (or, if you already have your client updater set-up to update from the "beta channel", you don't need to do anything except check for updates).

Important Changes:
- More fixes for sound stuttering on windows xp
- Fixed a memory leak
- Added two new callbacks requested by client plug-in sdk users

Let us know about any problems you find.

Thank's Peter.

But, the memory leak seems still present.
This problem occur on Windows XP pro SP3 32bit (no problem with Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit)

Tested with a server Beta 31-PRE.

Mighty fast testing there. Can you please describe to us what exactly you do and what you observe and why you think the observed behaviour is a problem.

**florian_fr40** · 17-01-2011, 16:32

I start the client and I connect on server (nothing else)
Look at the picture : Test Picture

The memory of process increases again and again with no limit (like on the previous version).

About: + Added dialog to manage server subscription modes to Options - Applications

Would be great if that window had an add current server button if it is not listed. Took me a moment to realize the only way to add a server was to use the subscribe mode (formerly glance) button on the toolbar.
