AIE Mumble Configuration – Windows Guide

Requirements

• An UMAMI account with an approved application associated with it.

• Every AIE member has an UMAMI account, even if you joined before UMAMI
• Don’t create a new UMAMI account if you lost or forgot your existing account details. Email Officers or contact an officer in-game for assistance.
• If you simply forgot your password, reset it here: https://umami.aie-universal.net/account/password/reset/
• Hint: The password reset email will also tell you your UMAMI username.
• Note that your UMAMI username is probably not your character name.

• The latest version of Mumble (currently 1.2.8 as of Dec2014)

• Get Mumble (SourceForge link)

Getting Started

• Install Mumble using the wizard selecting the default options.
• Optionally, set your Display Name in your UMAMI profile. So that you appear to other players in mumble by a name that they would know you by, rather than your umami username, you can modify your UMAMI profile:

• Login to UMAMI:
• Select profile from the menu at top right:

• Click the update profile button

• Enter a name in the Display Name field, then click Submit

Initial Mumble configuration:

• Start Mumble and click next on the Audio wizard

• Usually, the Default Device is correct. If you have multiple microphones, headsets, and speakers, select the devices you want to use from the dropdown.

• You should hear audio giving you an example of speex

• Talk into your microphone and adjust the bar as needed

• It is highly recommended that you select “Push To Talk”. After checking the radio button, click in the box beside it, then press the key you want

to use to talk.  

• Usually, default settings for Quality & Notifications are sufficient

• Positional Audio is not relevant to Mumble for AIE

• Finish!

• AIE uses usernames and passwords, so just select the default certificate option:

• Finish!

Adding the AIE server:

• Click the “Add New…” button

• Locate your username (see below)

• Enter the values as shown, but use your UMAMI username!

• Click connect

• If you have entered your UMAMI USERNAME correctly, the first time you connect, mumble will prompt you for your password. Enter your UMAMI Password.

• Press Okay
• Double-click a channel name to move to that channel

• Notice that even though the username specified was “ashtest”, the name shown in mumble is “Ashmumble” – ie the value entered in UMAMI Display Name field.
• If it won’t let you move channels, it is probably due to using the wrong UMAMI USERNAME.
