First, want to say thank you to the DM Golf Club for letting us use their Ventrilo server!! Thanks guys!

Ventrilo is a voice based communication system so you can talk to other players while you golf. It's also a great way to set up online matches.

To download Ventrilo:

To access the DM Ventrillo server, set Host name to either GOLF.AIM2GAME.COM or 66.150.219.2 and set Port # to 3700

Exactly what is the Ventrillo server? From the earlier post, You apparently have to download some software, and then how do you connect to one of those servers. I like the idea of having the real time voice available instead of recording your comment and then playing it. Mark, would you explain a little more about it and how it works, as it does soud interesting.

I don't use Ventrillo so can't answer your question. But I would suggest that by clicking either of the above links and going to the Ventrillo site you will be able to surf around their forums, FAQ's, etc and answer your own questions faster than waiting for Mark to come in here (which he very rarely does) and answer them for you. Good luck.

You need a microphone, it's chat software, so you can talk to people while you play, or while you stare at the screen, whatever the case may be.

Skype and Gizmo are both voice software without the Ventrilo hot key...and both are also FREE, which is always a good price.

I, too, would like to thank the DM's for their use of "the vent", their tournies, and getting to play in some very good games (even against Paul ). Thanks for the reminder Mark.

Ventrilo is free, and you can set it to voice-activated, so it is hands-free.
Works gr8, even when people are just sitting in Ventrilo doing nothing, which is most of the time nowadays.
LoL

I haven't used Vent very much, and I have always wondered what the colored icons were down the left edge of the column. Plus and minus signs. Blue and red.

I haven't used it in months, but I think if you hover your pointer over the icons a brief description in a small box appears.

Icons on the left -- little speaker icon -- tells when people are chatting. Green is chatting - orange is silent. The Plus signs and minus signs --- + sign is a empty room it turns to - when somebody is in the room. Also, Red + signs are private rooms that you need a password for.

Thanks for the replies guys!

what's with all the non-links games like call of duty 4 in the golf room/channel/server?

People play other games than Links sometimes...believe it or not!!

Yes, but isn't it a LINKS GOLF server? I thought that was the point in going to Vent via LSPN ? And my vent is set to login to the "Links Golf" server ?
