Hey sweet! We can test out the vent/UStream thing for next week (and the following week as well).

how does this work, do you have to play steam / have that thing?

Apr 4, 2014#14

Dave

No, it's UStream. I'd be recording/broadcasting live and we would also be talking on Vent. There's also a chat function for when the Vent is full, which it probably will be considering it fits 15.

Check out the vent thread, it should have full instructions on how to set it up. How many users can be on in a skype call at once?

It's kind of a different animal. There's no "account" for vent, it has more in common with teamspeak. You just install the client, set up a username (so that different users could conceivably use the same copy of ventrilo), and under that username you add servers. Server info is in the thread.

As long as people use good Comm discipline, I've been in ventrilo channels that had 24 people in them and it was workable. (Of course, we were there to kick ass, not socialize) Make sure you set up push-to-talk under the "setup" button.

For those scenarios, I really prefer mumble. We used that in EVE, and even had a sweet eve overlay that told you who was talking.

Teamspeak supposedly has the same overlay, but I could never get it to work.
