Talk in Voice

Avatar to Avatar in Real Time

There are two options for talking in voice.  The Region Voice Channel (scroll below) and VideoChat/Screenshare tool (Next Topic in the Help Docs).   

-----------------------------------------------
REGION VOICE CHANNEL
-----------------------------------------------

Each region has its own voice channel, allowing you to talk with anyone else in the same region. You will need to click this button to listen, as well as talk.

Troubleshooting Region Voice Channel
----------------------------------------------

In order to use voice on any website, you must give the browser permission to access your microphone for that site. You might also need to check your personal system devices. 

Sometimes it also requires you to accept camera permissions - even if you don't have one.  Don't worry about this setting on 3DWebWorldz - your camera will NEVER be used unless you grant it specific authorization for an internal 3DWebWorldz application, at the time you are using it (see 'C. VideoChat/Screenshare Tool' below).  It will never be activated without your explicit permission (Camera Microphones - see MUTING YOUR MIC above).

The sections below outline the two most popular browsers and your system devices.  If you use another browser, the process should be very similar.

Troubleshooting - In Google Chrome
----------------------------------------------

Usually the microphone option is evident upon right-click, but if not, you will need to look for a site settings option. Scroll through and look for microphone permissions. 

**I've done that and it is still not working

On the image above, note the microphone pull-down box.  Be sure the proper microphone device choice has been made. See "Troubleshooting Device Settings" below. 

**People say they can hear me, but I can't hear them.

See "Troubleshooting Device Settings" below. Browsers sometimes choose a speaker output you don't expect.

ADDITIONAL NOTE:  Browser add-ons and firewalls can also block the voice session.  You may need to add a2zsg.com and 3DWebworldz.com to the whitelist.

Troubleshooting - In FireFox
----------------------------------------------

After an attempt to join the Region Voice Channel, Firefox will ask you to provide permission.  If you miss the pop-up question provided by Firefox, you can click on the microphone image at the top of the browser to access the settings.

Troubleshooting - System Devices
----------------------------------------------

Speaker and Microphone devices are accessed differently on every system, but the general idea is the same.  Here is one way to double check your system devices.
