Looking Good!

 

Now hang tight while you wait for your Forum to get spammed with the ' How the hell do we set up 'Whisper to' commands on TS3' queries? :D

 

And no - I still have not figured it out myself :music_whistling:

Not to be picky tyger but couldnt you make the ATC/GC/AirOps Lcntrl6 that way the numbers match the groups? Just makes it easy to remember. :)

 

Know what? That does make sense right?

 

I'm also going to open the channels up to members of the community who want to use whisper lists.

 

Thanks

Q: What is a Whisper List?

 

A: A whisper list is communication setup in TS3, so that more than once channel at a time can be interacted with

 

Q: Ok.....got it. How do i set it up?

 

A: Simple. Start TS3, goto tools then Whisper lists. click new, then add a key press as per the layout below. Then drag and drop the appropriate channels in the centre field. click apply.

 

 

The Default setup requirements for using the 74th Whisper channels are as follows:

 

 

Key Press: LCtrl + 6

Channels: ATC / GC / Air Ops & YOUR FLIGHT CHANNEL

 

Key Press: LCtrl + 1

Channels: Flight 1 - Boar & YOUR FLIGHT CHANNEL

 

Key Press: LCtrl + 2

Channels: Flight 2 - Dodge & YOUR FLIGHT CHANNEL

 

Key Press: LCtrl + 3

Channels: Flight 3 - Chevy & YOUR FLIGHT CHANNEL

 

Key Press: LCtrl + 4

Channels: Flight 4 - Hog & YOUR FLIGHT CHANNEL

 

Key Press: LCtrl + 5

Channels: Flight 5 - Pontiac & YOUR FLIGHT CHANNEL

 

Key Press: LCtrl + 7

Channels: ATC / GC / Air Ops, Flight 1 - Boar, Flight 2 - Dodge, Flight 3 - Chevy, Flight 4 - Hog, Flight 5 - Pontiac

 

 

Points of note:

 

* The last Whisper list (LCtrl + 7) is known as a Guard Net and is used for minimal communications because it transmits to all channels. Esentially 'On Station' & 'Off Station'

 

* Each Flight lead determines whether he wants to include his 'OWN' channel in each of the whisper lists. There are advantages and disadvantages to this. The Main advantage is that everyone in the flight knows of 'external communications' by the flight to other force elements. The main disadvantage is that it causes an awfull lot of 'in channel' comms of different content mixes. When talking 'in the flight' channel only, brevity is lax, speed and acuracy important and this is generally less formal. The flight 'talk' to each other. essentially, the UHF Radio. When you use a whisper list, it is because you need to talk 'out' of the closed 'Flight net' and so it is far more formal.

 

* EVERY member of a flight should have the same setup as flight lead in order for any flight member to be able to assume command.

Whispers are an excellent tool in TS3. Nice post Tyger.

 

Perhaps one day VOIP will be included in the Sim. I think this will be the only way to ensure everyone is linked together. A sim like this more than any other game requires voice comms.
