TS3 Push-to-talk issue

[NyteKeller]

I've run TS3 since it first came out. Previously it worked just fine. I stopped using it (still installed) for a little over a month. The next time I ran it, Push-To-Talk would not work at all, except in the testing mode in the options. I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling with the same results.

OS: Windows 7 Ultimate x64
Phenom 9850
4GB RAM
Logitech G500 (software installed)
Cheap keyboard (no software)
All updates for TS3 are installed

Voice activation (which does work) is not an option as my location is too noisy.

Hello.

Just for testing.

Step 1)
In Settings --> Options --> Hot Keys
verify all of the profiles and take note of the profile's name and the the assigned key (or keys) to the Action "Push-to-talk"

Step 2)
Once you are connected to the server
In Self --> Hot Key profile --> Verify that the profile selected is one of those that had the Action "Push-to-talk" assigned.

In case of you haven't any profile selected then select it and test to PTT
In case of you have one profile selected, verify that you are pressing the key that this profile has assigned.

Good luck.

I'm using the Default profile all the way around. I got it to sort-of work last night, it's acting like PTT Voice Activation. It only keys when there's enough noise to break the threshold. It works like this:

Push Key: Nothing
Push Key and Talk: Activation
Release Key: Nothing
Release Key and Talk: Nothing

The problem now is that the activation threshold is so high that I have to almost yell to activate it. I've tried to adjust the voice activation level, but that does nothing. PTT still works exactly the way it's supposed to in test mode.

Still frustrating, but at least it's starting to, somewhat, work.

Hello, again.

Well, I coundn't see in your answer if once you are connected to the server is there any hot key profile selected.

Please, connect to your server and then:
Menu Self ---> HotKey Profile
Is Default "checked"? If not, then ckeck it with left clic.

Important: Be sure that in Settings --> Options --> Capture --> "Voice Activation Detection while using Push-To-Talk" is unchecked.

Ah, crap, I never even saw that option until you brought it up. Unchecking that fixed it.

Thanks, man!

God I feel like an idiot.

Alright, So I've tried everything which can be possible in this problem. Firstly, my problem: I've installed TS3 successfully, set my PTT, and everything else. BUT. When I connect to a server and press the button to talk, I cant speak because the little blue circle isnt lighting. However, when Im testing PTT everything works fine. I've tried to reinstall TS, reboot PC, reinstall mouse driver, (un)check some useless boxes, bla bla bla.
SO IF YOU HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS OR YOU KNOW HOW TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM, WRITE PLEASE!

Edit by mod
Thread merged.
This is not a SDK question. Next time please be careful.
