Ventrilo 3.0


Recommended Posts

The UI wasn't changed really. A few additions and tweaks, that's about it.

Yea, UI looks the same (which is good, its nice and simple)

The first major visible difference is the user list window says whether the server selected is online or not before you try to connect

Also, change log says Verison :p

I have to say I'm not impressed with it. At least for me and my group of friends it set everyong to guest (and gave everyone an annoying (GUEST) tag next to their name, and in order to fix it you had to manually go in to everyone's profile (which there is over 150 of us) and change like 20 settings. I see what they were doing with it, but the implementation wasn't good IMO.

Dont suppose it is able to pause or mute winamp when someone talks over it yet? Love listening to music whilst raiding but cant most of the time without manually adjusting all the players volume levels, thus i just do the RL ones and hope other folk aint saying anything important

    • I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.
    • I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.
    • The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.
    • I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
