mic

[holy moly]

MY MIC WORKS ON EVERYTHING EXECPT PHASMOPHOBIA and yes i know how to use vc

[bleh]

same

[Tress Merigold]

Same for me.. completed all the recommend diagnostics steps and no luck. Mic works on every program except phasmophobia. . Windows see it just fine, speech settings are all set as should be. in the game under options the proper mic is selected. Since there is no way to "test" the mic not in a session, i jump in a session and test use the sounds options to see if the bar move and no luck. Anyone know whats up?

Windows Start Menu > Settings > Privacy > left side under App Permissions > Microphone, make sure both allow apps setting is on. Other than that, maybe mess with the settings while in-game, turn them on and off. If you are using the new voice system, try switching back to Windows.

@Shadow,

Can confirm that everything is set to 'On', both Microphone and Desktop Apps. We have messed with settings in game as well, as well switching it back to Windows Voice Recognition.
No luck.

Have you updated drivers or tried unplugging the mic and plugging it back in? also, humor me. when you go in-game, does the phasmo app in sound settings show default, blank, or your mic/headset?

[Tress Merigold]

@Shadow,

We use GEFORCE Experience, the last update was 6/28-- There is an update for it, we will go ahead and download it and see if that works. When going ingame, the Phasmaphobia Settings shows: Microphone (2-USB Audio Device.)

It's weird. The mic works everywhere else and we ensure all settings were matching (this computer was a hand-me-down from my kid-- got an upgrade and they played Phas on this computer as well.) Thank you for helping us out with this, Shadow =)

An update, I am playing with my significant other and we are in the same match. He is actively talking ingame and can confirm with Spirit Box (and mic input), but I cannot hear him at all.

[Shadow]

Is he able to hear you? if yes, it's possible your in-game volume for him is muted or your mic is muted. You can send me a friend request if you would like and I can help faster.

I have voice while in game and everyone can hear me but when in the chill lobby noone can hear me any suggestions how to fix this

[Víєгα Ɍόѕє]

Do you have the proper mic set in the settings? Also do you have Push to Talk On? Or is it Open Mic?

[Ptob]

same problem for me, all settings are the way they should be after hours of troubleshooting. I have posted my own thread with no response

[Tress Merigold]

@Shadow, He cannot hear me ingame. I can hear him. Just fine

@Viera, Proper Mic is set, and it is open mic/voice activation. My mic works on everything except for Phasmaphobia. Audio is updated, drivers updated, etc. Playback works fine.

No input devices are enabled, only the mic. Multiple mics have been tested and to no avail-- USB and 1.5MM jack, neither works.

@PTOB, Same with us. When did this start affecting you?

This is a real problem. The mic doesn't work while in the starting office or in multiplayer. But if I go to a solo match it DOES register. I even talked to a ghost on the spirit box and got an answer so I KNOW it's working there. I can't play multiplayer games now because everyone kicks me when they "don't see a mic" on my player card. :( It is perfectly configured on my computer and works with all other windows product. The problem is in this game only. It's a new problem as of the 7 and new 7 patch update.

[Cranky Old Dude]

I have same issues myself, I have it work sometimes and other times not, to get it to work on occasion i have to swap various mic/inputs hit apply, go back and test it in menu, once in awhile it will work, most times not and this ruins any chance with the spirit box... on a side note I am using a voice meter setup however, it is all perfect and fine for every other game, or application, only phasmo has and always has had mic issues since its launch again off and on though so its really hard to pin down what might be the issue here, I use a hyper X quad cast mic using voice meter potato

So I've had the same issue where the mic was working in single player for spirit box and the board but online players cannot hear me and my mic is not detected by the game itself.

I found a fix that works for me and it might work for someone else too. I went into a single player lobby and switched my mic to the WRONG microphone. After doing that it began working for me.

For further detail: I have a Logitech headset I always use for Phasmophobia and it always worked. I also use XSplit software which is considered a different microphone according to the game. Switching to the XSplit mic while in a single player lobby fixed the issue (but only for that boot of the game, future boots required me to do this again).

Also XSplit is not open, maybe the microphone labels are wrong for some reason? that's my only theory as to why doing this fixed the issue.
