Positional audio

Please note that mumble works with all games as a regular voice chat application. The games below are the ones we've added positional sound support for, so that the voice of your teammates come from their direction in game. To enable specific game support, make sure that Config|Settings|Plugins|Transmit is set to "Position", and that Config|Settings|DirectSound|Method is set to "Panning" (or better).

  • Battlefield 2 (1.41)
  • World of Wardcraft (1.8.4 EU)

If you are an active Mumble user and would like to see support for additional games, submit it as a feature request on sourceforge. Please note that we'll only be able to add support for games we actually own (demos have different offsets from release versions, so they don't count), and adding a game can take a substantial ammount of time, so we'll have to prioritize.

If you want to add support for a game and you are able to modify the source of this game you can use the Link plugin.

If you are feeling daring, you can try to HackPositionalAudio.

Overlay

If you would like to disable the overlay for a certain game (because you do not want it in that particular game, or that game has issues with the overlay), and do not want to disable the overlay altogether, put a file named nooverlay (without any extensions) in the same folder as the game executable is located. This will tell Mumble that you do not want the overlay in this particular game. (Please note you must be running the latest snapshot or Mumble 1.1.5.)

Games that are known to have issues with the Mumble overlay are:

  • Combat Arms
  • Supreme Commander (Multiplayer)
