This mod integrates Teamspeak 3 with VBulletin by synchronizing VBulletin usergroups with Teamspeaks server groups. It also issues tokens to users and has a small viewer. More functionality will be added upon request or as needed.

NOTE: You must have a Teamspeak 3 server with ServerQuery Login. (Other permissions may be required, a full list of permissions will be added later.)

Options / Features :
* The ability to turn the whole modification on/off.
* The ability to show the modification in Quick Links.
* Automatically add users to TS3 groups (server and channel) based off of their Unique ID (set in profile)
* The ability to look up users by username or userid (if they used a token generated by this script)
* The ability to look up users by unique ID
* The ability to allow certain usergroups to generating tokens.
* The ability to allow certain usergroups to reset token counts.
* The ability to allow certain usergroups to administer tokens.
* Custom number of tokens and unique ID's

Two new usergroup permissions are provided in the usergroup manager.

* Default Teamspeak Server Group - The Teamspeak 3 server groups that users will be placed into.
* (Channel Name) - The Teamspeak 3 channel group that users will be placed into for that channel. (Only one group is allowed per channel, select none to not set a channel group)
* Can Generate Tokens
* Can Reset Tokens
* Can Admin Teamspeak
* Number of Tokens allowed (also used for number of unique ID's)

Two new user fields have been added and are editable through the user manager or the teamspeak script.

* Teamspeak Unique ID (variable depending on settings for primary usergroup)
* Tokens (the number of tokens they have generated)

* All other modification settings are in vBulletin Options > Neoobs - Teamspeak.

To install or upgrade;

• Unzip the files.
• Upload contents of upload folder to forum root.
• Import the product into vBulletin using the ACP Product Manager.
• Set your groups in the usergroup manager.

I too am wondering that. I checked out the HG repository but it says version 0.9.5 and hasn't been updated since January. So I don't know if thats safe to use or what since this thread says v0.9.9. An the version on the teamspeak site is 0.9b.

EDIT: Nvm, re-read the above posts an saw the post about 0.9.9 coming soon an real life issues. So no worries, I can totally relate to that as a lot of my projects keep getting delayed for RL issues, heh.

TS3 Final was released and servers updated last week, so maybe an update soon?

[Neo_obs]

There will be an update, however there are a couple of bugs that need to be fixed, however now that it has gone gold I will make a version for gold even if there are updates.

Awesome news, thank you much. Our community is preparing for a final test with a game-mod that ties TS3 in for communications and 3D sound, and the vBulletin/TS3 integration is a piece that will really bring it all together. I've had your .9b version running on a test site for a few weeks now and feedback has been very positive on the registration process, so we're really looking forward to this. Thanks for the work on it!

Been a long time now, is this project beyond repair?

[Neitmehr]

The only version I find is 0.9b from the Teamspeak Addons site. I installed it but I can't get a connection to my TS Server.

Teamspeak Error 111: Connection refused.

That's a real loss.

I have a version of this mod that I've been using on my website for months that works really well. I can't give it out as the author was testing on my site and I don't know that it's in a state he would like released.

The only reason I mention this is that the mod DOES work and works well. It needs work still though, mainly in the areas of maintenance. Removing people as needed, checking for changes to usergroups and applying the necessary changes, etc.

So, it does work, and I really hope it's continued to be supported. Maybe the author needs some donations to help motivate him? I have no idea, but... it couldn't hurt.
