TFC InGame Voice Tweaking

Voice_Tweak.exe

In your halflife directory is a program that is the first step in setting up your ingame voice communication. Open your half-Life folder with windows explorer and find an icon called "voice_tweak.exe". Run it.


If your microphone and sound system is setup correctly you should be able to set your volume by speaking and adjusting the volume slider. Set the slider so that normal speaking fills up 3/4's of the blue volume bar. Then all you need to do is setup a key to speak in TFC. You can bind that key with using the ingame configuration screen or by manually binding in tfc config.cfg file. The bind line should read "bind x +voicerecord", with x replaced by your key choice.
If speaking into the microphone produces no sound - click the system setting button and reconfigure your Windows sound settings.
