Or will it always be a separate download? I've been waiting for it to be fully built into the game before I try. I thought I remember Jason saying something about that an update or two ago when it was first released. Honestly, its almost fully integrated as is. It works for me flawlessly. Right now, you just launch SRS before Il-2. It auto installs the first time, and auto-updates if there is a new version. Updates are super quick. Set it up how you like once, and then it will always work. If you run outside of fullscreen you can have an overlay on and place it wherever you want on the monitor. It auto-connects to the server you join, and some servers like CB have little customizations to their SRS radio, like automated mission callouts and stuff. It's really cool. You don't have to do anything extra there, as soon as you autoconnect to the server their configuration starts working for you. It's less work than starting up head tracking before a session. Much faster to load and update than Discord or even Teamspeak. No discernible performance impact. @ciribob has done an excellent job. They may at some point get it fully integrated but its so close right now that there's no reason not to jump in and do it. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I just wondering, has anyone tried it with Windows7? Does it work, and it's just not supported, or is it a no go? Edited September 11, 2020 by SYN_Mugue Link to post Share on other sites

Can't say either way - I dont test against it, and I know it used to have issue so I wouldnt recommend it. You can always try though. And again - its not a recommendation, really, its a must. You HAVE to update, as soon as you can - you have no more protection for any critical bugs or Zero days. Link to post Share on other sites

You can't transmit on all channels simultaneously. What exactly are you seeing? Please send a recording showing the SRS overlay You can tune on some servers to two different channels, and that's it Wrap next radio means when you press next and you're on radio 2, it goes back round to radio 1. Without it, next would stop Edited December 20, 2020 by ciribob Link to post Share on other sites
Bert_Foster 149 Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Ok thanks. the scenario I had was with Radio 1 selected no matter what channel I selected (confirmed by Text to Speech) I could still hear the other guys talking. So to me it sounds like transmission on all channels. Though thinking through it, maybe it was just that they were on a Radio 2 Channel that I was hearing ? I presume if you are on Radio 1 you can switch to radio 2 select say Channel 3 then return back to Radio 1 Channel 1 .... so then you are hearing Radio 1 Channel 1 and radio 2 Channel 3 ? A nice feature would be the ability to have individual volume controls for each radio.... like the left and right balance channels. Link to post Share on other sites
Pinko 142 Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Does this work on finnish server or WoL. I couldn't get either to work. I always had unplugged icons for 'Il2' and 'server', but plugged for 'VOIP', I assume they all should have been plugged icons? It sounds like it is good for those who get it working, and would be nice if it can be integerated fully so that it's just a case of ticking a box to turn it on in Il2. Having to set permissions, ports, altering config files is too much for me who just wanted to casually dip in. Very classy looking though for an app, well done. Link to post Share on other sites
Charlo-VR 174 Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 SRS does work on Finnish Virtual Pilots, though it's usually pretty quiet there, especially compared to Combat Box. Not only do fewer folk speak on Finnish, Combat Box has also added some really clever and immersive radio callouts that also serve to demonstrate/ remind everyone that SRS is working, which in turn probably prompts more folk to speak.

Pinko 142 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Thanks. I figured it was probably my incompetence playing it's part rather than it not being available on the Finnish server. Link to post Share on other sites

You were likely hearing then on the second radio tuned to channel 2 - or it may have been the second radio on channel 1, where you would still hear them. There aren't per radio channels, just channels if that makes sense You have two radios You have 5 channels Radio 1 set to channel 2 is the same as radio 2 set to channel 2, exactly as a real radio. The channel is just a frequency There are left and right audio balance options already, look in settings as well as per radio volume controls. 16 hours ago, John_Yossarian said: Does this work on finnish server or WoL.

-[HRAF]Blade18 7 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 (edited) Hi Gents, question: if you go into any MP servers with SRS enabled, how many channels are available for use on that server? I probably misunderstand when I think only 2x4 channel is to be shared among everyone? Just wondering whether with 50-60 people on, is it avoidable to use the same channels for more than one squad or group? Or is it 2x4 channels each for Allied and Axisside? Could someone please clarify it to me? In DCS every squad can use their "own" frequency on as many radios as it is in that specific airframe, so you never talk over any other group. How about in SRS? Thanks a million ! Edited January 30 by Razor18 1 Link to post Share on other sites
