Hi nkey,

Forgive me if this has been mentioned before, but I cannot find all of the key bindings shown on the TFAR web page ('Usage' section) to be present in the 'radio_keys.hpp' file contained in the 0.8.3 download. The file on GitHub has them, but I am not sure if I can just copy & paste these, or if they contain some functions that are only available in the current development version.

Thanks & Best Regards,

Gundy

Yes, github userconfig for dev version only.

Could you please provide the userconfig for 0.8.3 matching the current description on the TFAR web page? Is it matching commit fd95c12a2e?

Just to be clear, the userconfig provided with the 0.8.3 download does currently not include the key bindings for changing stereo modes as well as for cycling your available radios.

Cycling and stereo modes buttons only in dev version now.

It's not a fix, but it hides RPT error messages and doesn't save them.

Yes, but I can't see any RPT spam with TFAR. Maybe you mixed threads? :)

Try "ft_freq_east" and "ft_freq_east_lr" :) (change prefix to typo version)

It is because you duplicate radios via VAS or other script.

Has anyone encountered a problem in VAS when you adding default vanila radio it doesnt change to TFR SW one... Its on a dedi server. It worked before, and it is working in editor but not on the server. We can get it from old loadouts in VAS but cant take a new one form items menu. Was crawling through code, init files and stuff for days, but cant get it working... BTW LR works just fine.

So that mean we should have our own number radio for each person right?

like AN/PRC-152 [1]

that [1]

If i have [1] and another guy have [1] too because VAS then those channel changing happened right?

https://www.dropbox.com/s/98qsj9jqi9h0tdp/Op_Warthog_Invade_%26_Assault3.Altis.7z Its working on local. TFR was working on and off in last couple months, but recently it stopped working as it should. There was a problem after re-spawn players radios disconnect from TS. Found several workarounds - like reloading plugins in TS or changing channels in TS back and forth... And when we managed to deal with that - this VAS problem appeared...

I don't know whether this was proposed before, so pardon me if it was.

We're using TFA Radio for a while now on Comrades in Arms, and I really like the additional layer of immersion it adds. Two things, however, bother me.

1. Possibility to ignore qualifier keys.

I use LALT to look around (like most people I guess). If I see something and want to radio that information, I have to release ALT in order to use the radio properly, risking to loose sight of whatever I was looking at. I would love to see a setting in the userconfig file to allow for "Don't care" qualifiers, i.e. something like

class tanget_sw {
   key = 207;
   ctrl = -1;
   shift = -1;
   alt = -1;
};

The '-1' would mean to ignore this qualifier, so that key 207 (I use 'End' since I have programmed my radio keys on mouse buttons) can be used regardless of any other keys, allowing me to look around (or sprint with SHIFT) at the same time as using the radio.

2. Ignoring qualifiers on key up

When I press the radio key to speak, and, while still holding it, come under fire and need to sprint (hence, press SHIFT), as soon as I release the radio key, the radio will continue transmitting. This is because the key-up event that it reads was a SHIFT+<radio key-up> instead of a mere <radio key up>. I think it would be best to always ignore qualifiers on key-up and only check if the key-up even was for the used key.

In any case, thanks for TFA Radio. It's a great addition to the game.

^ This!

Without the key setup difficulties and the constant "hot-micing!!!" (we yell that at each other quite frequently when we play since we started using TFA), TFA will be closer to perfection!
