How do i set up and use Mumble?

General Set up

Go to Mumble and download the mumble version appropriate for your operating system.

Follow the installation wizzard, (please take the time to do this as it greatly improves performance!)

open up mumble and click on the 'custom server' tab.

In the Label box, put anything that will help you to identify the server (for example TOoA)

In the address box put www.theorderofazeroth.net

Leave the port exactly as it is.

In username, enter the name of your character (i.e monks)

The password is available on the guild info tab INGAME.

Click on Add and next time, you will just need to click on connect :)

Text to Speech

Text to Speech will annoy the hell out of you, its funny to start with but the novelty will soon wear off!

to turn this off, go to audio and uncheck the text to speech option.

Alternatively you can choose what is announced to you (for example just having it announce people entering or leaving a channel. To do this go to settings and then configure.
Go to the user interface tab and click expert config.

you should now have more option tabs at the top. Go to the messages tab and uncheck any announcements you do not want to hear! (text to speech column for the voice)

------------------------------------------------------------
Push to talk

You can enable push to talk during the set up wizzard, however if you havent done this it can be set up by going to settings, configure and clicking on the shortcuts tab.

Click on Add

Double click on the new entry 'unassigned' and choose push to talk from the drop down menu.

Double click on the shortcut space next to your new entry and press the key you wish to use for push to talk.

Press OK!

and you should be set!
-----------------------------------------------------------

There are various options available for example new skins, which are all very easy to install. i havent yet found an add on to change the text to speech voice tho!
