Hi, I’m quite new to the unreal engine and maybe not familiar enough with the engine itself
I’m currently trying to implement a proximity voice chat using a VOIP push to talk
The current problem that I can’t seem to fix right now is how to input my voice from microphone to the unreal engine for the VOIP, my mic works fine in all other application except unreal right now
Additionally, I’ve tried using audio capture component and use “On audio envelope value” event to print out if it detects any mic input, which of course as I expected, didn’t work as well
I already modifed some config files to enable the voice chat in unreal, as seen below
My code is just like this one, so I don’t think the code is wrong since I already checked it multiple times. It seems that there ain’t many documents about VOIP and voice communication, which give me a headache right now
Any idea about my problem above? if you need any more info, please let me know!
Anyway I found the answer on my part, the VOIP MUST be used in the unreal session system in order to work properly. Or else, you won’t hear anything.
Additionally, if the client join the host session via open {ip address} command, the ToggleSpeaking command won’t work as well. It seems that joining via join session node is an appropiate approach for this situation. I still do not understand how the find session node works though.
However it can still be quite troublesome to test it out with friends that aren’t in the LAN network (Visual Network like Hamachi doesn’t work as well) since you have to forward port or something like that in order to connect to each other.
Any better idea for testing, feels free to leave a comment!
