Hello SamusMaximus8492,

what exacly is the problem, you told us that both together is not working.

what OS do you have?
try to set both programs to run as admin and Winxp kompatibility
did FH2 sent you an error message? if not,try to run FH2 in windowed mode to get one.
Are you using any other voip client at the same time?

Neo and me are running WIN 7 64bit and Mumble/FH2 both as admin without kompatiblity mode

hope we can fix that

Hey Knallkopp, thanks for checking in. I'm running Windows 8, both programs were run as admin, and FH2 would return a "forgottenhope2.exe has stopped working" error after the screen first goes black.
However, last night I got it all to work fine by simply starting mumble after FH2 was running and on a server. Go figure...   

Mumble is certainly very cool. I can only imagine how great it would be if everyone were running it  :o

I'm sure glad VOIP works now on the new server IP WaW set up because I had NO LUCK getting mumble to work. Geopatt kept telling me in game that you just start mumble and THEN you start BF2/FH2 and it should connect automatically. Never did for me. And then I clicked the 'add' button on the connection screen within mumble and filled in the appropriate info for each blank:
Label: (I put "WaW #1 Server" here)
Address: 209.222.20.115 (the servers new IP address)
Port: 16567 (This is the port that displayed right after the IP when I was in game on the server)
Username: Professor Anthrax (my player name-is this supposed to be something else??)

Hit 'ok' on the above and then 'connect' and kept getting some failed to connect error.

The mumble connection screen also displays a shitload of servers presumably so that you can click on one to join that way but I scrolled down the list after setting it to display alphabetically and didn't see anything like 'WaW' or 'world at war'...where is our server on this pre-existing 'list' of servers that run mumble. If someone can describe how to find it on that list then maybe I'd be able to connect that way.

EDIT: I have a dual install on my computer but find FH2 generally runs much better on XP for me so that's where I run it. Do I have to worry about all this "run as administrator" crap in XP?? I really don't want to have to run the game in 7. With my old computers 4 gig of RAM I find maps load MUCH faster for me in XP. Also no occasional random CTD's when I run it in XP.

@Samus

Nice to see that it is working now. The only reason to start mumble before FH2 is that mumble has got an overlay that is displayed in FH2. It shows you who is talking to you. But it is not recommend.

@Professor Anthrax

It is absolutely no problem to run everything on XP.
I am no sure if there is an administrator mode in XP. Try to run both programs without this mode.
We had no test under XP but it should work without a problem.
Looks like the installation did not install the default server informations.
Try to put in the following server informations for mumble.

Name FH2 Mumble Server
IP 217.79.190.136
PORT 64762

The nickname you connect to the mumble server is free, it has nothing to do with FH2 and must not be the same.

After connecting to the server, there is nothing to do. You start in the lobby an got switched automatically to the channel equal to your server/team/squad when you are in game

@Professor Anthrax

I'm clearly no expert on mumble, but anecdotally; when I ran mumble NOT as an administrator, I got the same lengthy server list as you did, with nothing FH2 related to be found.

However when I ran as admin, it automatically when straight to the FH2 lobby, and automatically set me up with the squad once I was on the WaW server. So running it as admin seems crucial.

There does seem to be a way to do that in XP, I'd just google it.

@Samus,

This is interesting to know, we will do some test without running as admin.

For those who are not connected automatically to our mumble server, please add the server with the informations in my post above.

---EDIT---
One other note, are you using the desktop shortcut to start mumble? Or how do you start it.

Regards

Can you take a look into the shortcut properties for me.

Normally the link should point to the .exe file with the extension of server ip and port.

Regards

This is what mine points to

"C:\Program Files (x86)\FH2Mumble\fh2mumble.exe" mumble://217.79.190.136:64762/?version=1.2.0 -m

this is the right link to our server.

now we have to solve the problem why it is not connecting to the server.

To all Players who get the server overview, please insert the Data above as favorite server and connect manually.

Thanks Samus for helping.

Thursday, Thursday, T-H-U-R-S-D-A-Y !!

(and VOIP is working! woohoo!)

(although I'll still test mumble tonight with that manual connection info Knallkopp_02 provided here.)
