TeamSpeak 3 support update
TeamSpeak 3 support is about the most wanted feature right now for TINT, but don’t worry, it’s coming.
The TeamSpeak 3 support will consist of a Plugin for TINT (for Pro Ed.; it will be built-in to Standard Ed.), and a “Helper” plugin that you install into TeamSpeak 3. The “helper” provides information to the TeamSpeak 3 plugin to aid it’s display. This is unlike the TS2 / VT3 Plugins that “scrape” the information directly out of the client, and as it is actually using the TS3 SDK (now that with TS3 TeamSpeaks SDK is actually rather decent) it should be more efficient.
I have worked on this feature all over the weekend, and as of today, the plugin shows channel, server, and nickname information, and a rudimentary list of speakers with speaking / not speaking statuses. It’s not finished yet, but now I have the basics working and understand how the TeamSpeak 3 plugin system works. Feature parity with the TeamSpeak 2 plugin is the now the first milestone to hit, then all the other fancy stuff that TeamSpeak 3 can do (like multiple servers) will be supported sometime later.
It’s funny, most major breakthroughs get comitted to version control around midnight!
