:D
And it seems they provides a strong SDK for game support... Maybe you'll find TS3 support in a future Smokin'Guns release ;)
Thanks for the trigger

I don't think the SDK is free though :(

SDK is provided with some good libraries for client and server parts. Win32, win64, Mac, linux x86, linux x86_64 and even freebsd (only server library is available for freebsd) seems to be supported by Teamspeak...

About the server part, there are few limitations if you don't own a license:
If no license key is present, the server will run with the following limitations:
• Only one server process per machine
• Only one virtual server per process
• Only 32 slots


In my point of view, this provides the availability to run one dedicated server (I mean a modified one embedding TeamSpeak support) for free and this is fairly enough for Smokin'Guns or ioQuake3 engine.

Btw as I'm definitively not easy with english language I'm really not sure about what we can do if we include TS3 server in the dedicated server. Maybe some else can take a look at the current available SDK archive: Go on the TeamSpeak site, get the "Client/Server SDK 3.0.0-beta1 (for integration with existing products/services)" download, then check LICENSING files and server.pdf documentation (containing the license agreement).
So I'm even not sure what to do with engine sources supporting TeamSpeak server.

Btw don't dream, TeamSpeak & Smokin'Guns won't be married unless we have enough time to look at it.

Why do we need Teamspeak when ioQuake has integrated VoIP and Mumble link support?

This is only a discussion, but I'm not sure integrated VoIP is very good and mumble link support is limited. TeamSpeak is popular and may be more reliable...

Supporting popular tool is always a good feature.

I was just telling it seems possible.

From my beta experience, the VOIP is still a little rough, I find the quality is much worse than Teamspeak or Mumble. VOIP may be useful for some fun on public servers, but I would use TS/Mumble for clan wars and general ingame chatting.
