Rec Room

Rec Room

Suggestions: Mic test and report button
I've just started playing rec-room and man... This is awesome! But my first experience was going into the main area to the noise of a 10-11 year old screaming "GIVE ME THE CAMERA". I could only mute them among a few other settings.

Another thing is, I was trying to talk to people, however I cant tell if my mic is set up properly or what the diferent mic settings mean in the options menu. Maybe some way to test your mic in the options menu?

If you look in the mirror in your Dorm Room, you should see "speech lines" coming from your mouth when you talk if your mic is working.

They look like:

Glad you're having fun!

For quickly muting others, try the "Stop Gesture":

Thanks for that tip. I'll have a test.

I'll just mute people from now on, though I feel I'm missing out later when I hear people taunting the children and can't hear their reactions. Maybe an option to control user volume? Or some feature that tries to automatically set everyone to the same voice volume to avoid loud peaks like screaching?

In the settings, I believe you can change the pitch of your voice. That may be what you found.

I'm having a mic problem that in other programs, my vive mic works perfectly. I have only had it working once in Rec room. I have tried different usb ports, but no use. The mirror is a good tip, but agree, the mic is where it needs more work. There are a lot of others that are having similar problems.

Btw when I tested my mic in the mirror I saw no speech lines. Only my characters mouth change. I may have been looking too directly on the mirror though

I was the same way. No lines, but mouth moving. It worked for a little, then no one could hear me again. Very frustrating. I had to exit the game and get back in to get it to work again
