This is just a heads up.

Some time ago some people probably remember me complaining about my in game volume going down when people talk on TS.My game would constantly sound like it was taken over by a lousy DJ,constantly raising and lowering my volume,just like how most of us did with our radios when we were kids trying to practice our DJ skills,might have sounded cool to the one doing it,not so much for the one that's listening to it.

I finally found out why I was having this issue.There is a plugin in your TS3 that is named "Volume Control".

The description "Reduce volume of other applications when someone is speaking in your channel. On systems other than Windows 7 or newer only Winamp's volume is affected."

I unchecked it and now all my sounds stay at the same volume when someone speaks on TS.

Simple ain't it?That little Plugin almost had me pulling my hair out,picture yourself in a firefight in game with your volume going up and down 60% to 20% all the time.

TS3 plugins are also responsible for JFK's death, the oil spill in the gulf, and Sarah Palin.

This plugin SUCKS. i tried to use it with winamp and it would lower winamp's volume once, then never tune it back up. Utterly worthless. Also caused my sound card driver to crash.

So that is what has been playing havoc with my sounds .. I can see it work when I bring up the mixer ... couldn't find the cause ... thanks guys.

I use the default plug-in that comes with winamp...it lowers the volume so i can hear...and then it goes back up after a configured time...
