Solved Local Server hosting login with local client but no one can hear me on IVC while in 3D
-
Turned out it was because my server name was similar to my client name. I changed the server name to just server and everything works fine now. Thanks for everyone who helped me.
Will not work
Server: Prime Server
Client: PrimeWorks
Server: PrimeServer
Client: PrimeServer: Server
Client: Prime@Micro_440th I don’t think this any of this is covered in the docs at the moment if you need help to add it let me know.

@AviationPlus something to do with host name matching callsign name, perhaps?

Ya I guess but it turns out it just has to be similar. Who would have guessed. I am glad it’s fixed and a known fix. Thanks to everyone who helped.

Wow, never heard about that.
So the info to nail is that server name and client name cannot be similar correct? -
@Micro_440th Basic Network concept…
Don’t set 2 times the same name on the same LAN network…
-
Done -
@Micro_440th
And just for the networking challenged like me: Would that be this name?(not some name stated in BMS somewhere ?)

Well Prime and Prime Server isn’t the same name just similar using as the logbook name in Falcon BMS. If you remove the space it works fine as well.

DoneYa it is the logbook name have not really tried with the System Name.

AFAIK it might be a netbios thing…
spaces in netbios don’t translate at all I think…
-
@Micro_440th Also forcing CS to the local client is necessary before anyone will be able to hear the client in IVC.

I don’t do it.

@AviationPlus nope

I would swear I remember seeing a similar thread about this … viz. host names (or is it phonebook entry names?) and callsign/logbook names colliding. But I can’t find anything in past few years…
Here’s a similar thread from 2016 though. Whatever this quirk is, it sounds like it’s been around awhile.
-
@MaxWaldorf Interesting must have just happened to work after I changed it. Will change it back and see what happens.
-
@MaxWaldorf That’s probably that, netbios doesn’t support blank, so the system must have truncate the name before the space, resulting in the same name.
