I don't ever play multi-player games but I'd like to play Halo with a friend and can't figure this out. Sorry if this is a dumb question. I've tried googling but no luck. I'm on Xbox.
Does push-to-talk require a button on the actual mic that I'm supposed to press? Or is there a button on the controller? And what is toggle-to-talk?
I don't want to have my mic always on. I'm just using the wired earbuds that came with my phone though. Is there any way to make that work or do I need a headset that's designed for Xbox?
Current description for the push to talk button says it is disabled when set to open voice. Can it just be changed to a toggle mute mic button when set to open? I prefer open voice when communicating with my squad but need to mute it at times to talk to my stream or anyone in the background
I'd really like a binding to mute/unmute my mic when using Open Mic instead of using Push To Talk. It's kinda annoying to use PTT in mid fight while shooting people. I'd like to unmute my mic when we are getting into a fight and mute it when I don't need to talk.
Hey, I feel like this should be a thing. If it is a thing and I missed it please let me know. I could not figure out a way on the controller to toggle talk (Controller on PC). There should be a mapping that we can bind one of our buttons to for opening an open mic and closing an open mic. For example, I click left on the d-pad it opens my mic. My mic stays open until I hit the Dpad again.
I play sound clips that have quite / sound effects that wont keep the voice activation open, but if I had a way to keep the activation open manually, might be a work around.
Copy and paste the following command into your autoexec.cfg file found in your apex directory (usually C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Apex\cfg):
bind_US_standard "t" "toggle TalkIsStream 1 0"
Replace the "t" with your preferred key bind. Make sure to run the autoexec.cfg file by copying and pasting the following into the "advance start up options" in Origin/Steam launcher: +exec autoexec.cfg
sometimes i like to play music through mic, i was wondering if there was a way to toggle voice instead of having to hold down the voice button?
So this is a demo. A trial of the product for people to dip their toe in and see if they like it. This isnt a beta weekend, this is a permanent(?) demo of the product. It is supposed to be indicative of the product and move units.
If I were random joe blow who saw the demo, and tried the demo, I would not buy the game. I'd go "Hey, I enjoyed that concept, but that motion blur was just a huge deal breaker, I got actual headaches while playing. Gonna have to be a pass from me!"
As someone who was interested in the title, Im here, I follow the news about this game, and I know motion blur toggle will be a thing. But leaving out a crucial graphics toggle in the demo is a huge mistake. I get it takes time to update, but there should be 100000% an update rolling out to address this sort of thing if the demo is staying up indefinitely.
Im not talking balance changes, gameplay tweaks, etc, Im talking graphical settings which will be present in the full game.
Fortnite/Epic Games should add this simple feature. Since it's a cross-platform game, I mainly play with my friend who have consoles and therefore cannot be on discord at the same time. It really is a Pain in the butt have to turn my mic to push to talk whenever a family member comes into my room to talk as well as for streaming and also for people whose mics pick up a lot of background noise. The fact that Fortnite is as big as a game, and still does not have this feature is just not cool. At the end of the day its the simplest feature to add and it need to be added very soon.
Many years ago I installed a DiMarzio EP 1111 in one of my guitars, and it has kinda ruined normal toggle switches for me.
It's not that I really use the 4PDT capabilities, but I like how solid the lever feels and I like that the tip on it is really short. The body of the switch is also nice and compact, so it easily fits in thinner body designs.
What I don't like, is the price tag. They're crazy expensive at the moment, so I'm looking for something simpler but with the same feel... short and stiff (wink wink).
Does anyone know of a decent alternative?
Which toggle switches do you guys use?
Can there be an option to Toggle "push to talk" -team voice chat? I recently faced a lot of problem because of this. While trying to provide info 1 of my finger is always on the key and it's caps lock(For me) , I can't use one of my movement key due to this. Toggle push to talk will fit Riots purpose and also not cause huge problem since users with bad mic will be able to mute themselves instantly after providing info. I believe it will be a really useful feature and not ruin the game's competitive integrity in any way.
I want to keep using push to talk like usual(alt key), but some games I'd rather have no mic and not talk so it'd be nice to have another key that could toggle on and off the functionality of the alt key. So that I don't hit it by accident. Thanks in advance.
I know you can turn PTT on/off but it would be much easier for controller players to use PTT if i can press the bind once and it stays on until I press the bind again because its basically a useless feature on controller if I have to hold the button.
Like I said, 100+ other issues that take precedence...just a small quality of life change to keep in the back of your mind.
It's gotten me killed way more than any enemy has in the whole game
One of the things I think would be a good idea on the PS5 is the ability to talk/hear in game chat even if you're in a party.
Its a shame in squad/teamwork based games to be hard locked into Party or Game chat. I don't always want to talk publicly but it would be helpful to toggle quickly without the slow UI toggle we have now.
I had a thought of toggle to talk and am not sure why it's not in more games but the ability to be able to press a button and then you talk and just press it again to mute yourself sounds so much better than having to hold down a certain button because that is a challenge when you're in a build fight and calling for you teams help, you almost have to stop building for a minute. just thought its a good suggestion and don't know why more games haven't adopted this idea.
Add one more option for voice chat. Currently we have two options. Open microphone or push to talk, which is basically hold the button to talk. That's not very convenient in a game like Fortnite. It's pretty annoying having to keep holding a button down during a build fight just to talk.
That's why i suggest an option to toggle microphone on and off, using the same button that's used for push to talk, but instead of holding it to talk, you press it to turn the mic on or off. It would also be nice to have the an X sign over the voice chat "speaker" icon next to our name when we have the mic muted.
Hello,
I'm fairly new to using AutoHotKey. I'm attempting to create a macro that will work with the communication app Discord and various games with Push-to-Talk functionality.
I want to be able to toggle my push-to-talk key for voice chat on and off, but retain my ability to press and hold the same key for voice chat.
My intention is to press and hold the F9 key (my standard push-to-talk key that I use with a programmable mouse button) when I want to say something quick and release the key when I am done.
If I want to say something longer, or just have a long conversation without holding down the key, my idea was to rapidly double-press F9 like a double click of the mouse. This would run the macro to hold F9 down until I did the same double press to stop the macro and release it.
I've read the pinned post about loops and timers, as well as a toggle. I'm still learning the syntax so I don't understand a lot of what is being programmed.
I had the idea of using an If statement, a timer, and a counter to track how many times I press the F9 key. If the F9 key was pressed at least twice within 1 second (or a little less, like 750 ms) then a toggle would occur and the HoldF9 function would execute. (I think this is the correct syntax)
HoldF9:
Send, {F9 down}
Return
If I press and hold down F9 myself, then the counter shouldn't pick that up. I would also put in an Else that would reset the counter to 0 after the timer reached 1.5 seconds or so. If the toggle is active and the same double press is detected, the toggle would return to 0 and stop the HoldF9 function.
I'm primarily looking for syntax help. If I was programming this in Ladder Logic like RSLogix 500, I would be done in a couple of minutes. However, text-based programming is difficult for me. Thank you in advance for your help. I will attempt to answer any questions or add clarification if necessary.
I know I can't be the only one that actually enjoyed how much faster battles go without team-up animations for certain characters, like Rocket's Ultimate with Groot. As cool as some of them look, when you've seen them daily for months, it would be nice to accelerate certain things like farming U6, or blitz.
Thoughts?
Evidently it works in both [conversation] and [text] chat formats, so even this post should do it. Only drawback is that it also force toggles the state on yourself.
From my own experimentation, it does seem that with practice you can reduce the time itโs toggled through the [willpower] skill tree, but afaik thereโs no way to prevent the mode switch altogether.
Obviously the โfloorโ stages (Mario Galaxy, Wii Fit Studio, etc) and the large stages (Great Cave Offensive, New Pork City, etc), but what other stages still wonโt be legal, even with the stage hazard toggle added?
Toggle lists are really cool, but however I find it weird to always show them in a closed state, regardless of what was the LAST state you choose.
Don't get me wrong I still have mixed feelings about how they will behave...
So I'm pinging you guys how do you work with them? Should they remain as you left them? For example, if you made a button template and you have set them open, should they appear open? Or by default closed?
Is there any way I can toggle my push to talk button
Just why isnt there one
