Your Batty Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 Hello, I am trying to help out a friend of mine. He says that his voice is blocked. He can't hear anyone. He showed his volume in his firestorm viewer was all turned up and enabled. He sent me this gyazo and it looks like his "SLvoice" is greyed out? Can anyone help with this and explain on how to fix?

HenM Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 (edited) It happened after SL players changed settings on my computer. Isn't it true that you do not know what it is about? This whole thing seems to me like another ambush which ended in disaster. Now they are also trying to spoil the computer. There are experts who work in computer stores and their job is to try and spoil computers through SL Edited July 2, 2022 by HenM 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HenM Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 I need to buy a new computer. I know they do a lot of years for a lot of gamers who usually do not know that someone from SL burned their computer. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your Batty Posted July 3, 2022 Author Share Posted July 3, 2022 I do apologize to everyone. My friends first language isn’t English. I don’t know if he was really blocked by another resident or not. He says he was blocked by someone. But honestly I’m not too sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you explain that people have the option to block/mute other residents and has nothing to do with their computer? Did you ask if they were in an area that allowed voice chat?

Your Batty Posted July 3, 2022 Author Share Posted July 3, 2022 The problem is he can’t hear anything. His settings on firestorm is all turned up. The only thing that’s weird is the SLvoice from what I showed in the photo. It seems it is greyed out. Should be uninstall and reinstall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can't hear anything at all on his computer and not just SL? Or is this a specific SL issue? I posted a link above in regards to SL voice not working and steps to try to get it working. You're sure he doesn't have ALL sounds muted on SL from the viewer? fs_media [Phoenix Firestorm Project - Wiki] (firestormviewer.org) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HenM Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 This is an intentional blocking of someone from SL. About a month ago someone I know from SL called and told me they were doing ambush and they will find a reason... At first they go to the computer bios and change the timing and frequency settings and after that they make blockages by the computer address they get from the marketing companies even before they sell the computer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impossible but if you really feel that they did this then just buy a new computer and take a hammer to the old one. Problem solved and you are welcome.

They are blocking BEFORE the computer is even sold. 🤔 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
