Don't know of any tutorials as such, so here goes.
1. If you just want to use TS for comms in-game you do not need to run a TS server, just the TS client. There are plenty of public free TS servers out there.
2. DL & install the latest TS client.
3. Click on icon & run the program, it may be in the task bar tray.
4. On menu, click "setting" then "soundinput.output settings". This brings up a self-test screen.
5. Click test-codec & select "CELP6.3 Kbit" (my setting).
6. Click "press to talk radio button" (I do not use voice activation).
7. Click "set" button, then press the key you want to set for voice comms.
8. Click "activate local test mode", try talking & see if you can hear yourself in your headphones. Adjust volume etc accordingly.
9. Click "de-activate local test mode" when done.
If you get this far then you know your comms is at least working OK.
10. If comms not heard then try clicking "settings", "options" & making sure that the "wave" sound driver radio button is selected. Also that "input device" & "output device" (at the bottom of window) has your sound card selected.
Connecting to a TS server
1. Assuming your comms are setup OK, then click "connection" then "connect" (main screen of TS Client).
2. Right-click on the "server" tab, & choose to "add server". This writes an tab called "new server" in the server list.
3. Left-Click on this "new server" tab to bring up a server info dialog box.
4. In the server info box, type in the server name (meaningful name for you). As example try "Public TS server 1"
5. Filling in the the server IP address. As expample try voice.teamspeak.org:8767
6. Do not Click the "allow server to assign nickname" button.
7. Filling in the & fill in the "nickname" box, this is your nickname ie. IL2-Hotshot or the like
8. Click the "anonymous" radio button.
9. Fill in "login name" name same as nickname.
10. Leave password blank (some servers have a password).
11. Click the "auto-reconnect" box. This allows TS to try to reconnect if comms drop out for any reason.
12. Leave remaining boxes empty. (in some servers you can connect directly to specific sub-channels).
13. Now hit the "connect" button & you should be connected to a public (free) TS server. Note you cannot talk in the default channel you enter. You will have to either make a new channel or click on one of the channels listed to join there & talk.
