Teamspeak 3 Information

For Teamspeak, once downloaded, the Setup Wizard should appear and will walk you through Setup. If you wish to change any of these settings, go into Settings> Setup Wizard to reconfigure.

If any server is not working when you attempt to log on, it generally means that the server is offline.

If you can not use Teamspeak 3 for whatever reason, multiplayer has a chatbox that can be pulled up and closed by pressing ‘Tab’ while connected to any server.

In-game voice chat has been implemented, but is still in the developmental stages, so for the time being, comms programs will be used for these events.

Create Your Own Server

Firstly, knowing how to port forward is necessary to set up a Server. The needed port for a server is 27001.

For those with no experience of port forwarding, your easiest route would be to first identify your router model and Google how to port forward your specific model.

If you wish to the alter the details of the either the Arena or Siege Server, it can be done in the ServerConfig.ini file. To find this file, it can be found in Documents> My Games> Bombdog Studios> MAV> Prefs. Once you alter the settings to your liking, make sure to ‘Save’ the edits.

Enable Snapshots

Non-Steam

To enable Snapshots, log into M.A.V. and head over into the Options menu in the Preferences section. Check the box to enable Snapshots. After that, restart the client to be prompted for an update.

An alternate route is to right click and open up the file location on a MAV.exe shortcut, and run the Updater.exe executable to prompt the update if one is available.

Steam

To enable Snapshots, head over to your Steam Library, right click on M.A.V., and click on Properties. Head over to the Betas tab to opt into the Snapshot Builds. No code is required. If done correctly, M.A.V. will be listed in your Library as M.A.V. [snapshotbuilds].
