    TSNotifier Installed on Windows 10 x64

    After much weeping and gnashing of teeth, I finally got TSNotifier to work NORMALLY in Windows 10 x64 using IL-2: Cliffs of Dover! Please read this entire post first... Especially the edits! Here's what I did, step by step:

    1. Windows 10 control panel: Uninstalled TSNotifier and TeamSpeak 3 Client.
    2. Downloaded and installed: [TeamSpeak3-Client-win64-3.0.18.exe]. This version is compatible with [TSNotifierV1.6.0.msi].
    3. Downloaded and installed: [TSNotifierV1.6.0.msi].
    4. Run IL-2: Cliffs of Dover. Spawn an airplane in multiplayer mode. There will be no TSNotifier text at this time.
    5. Exit the server. Then, exit the game to Windows 10 desktop.
    6. Open TeamSpeak 3 Client from the new shortcut.
    7. Observe the Easy to miss TSNotifier icon in the toolbar at screen lower right.
    8. Right Click the TSNotifier icon in the toolbar and chase through these options:
    8a. General... Check "Show Speaker", "Show Self", "Use Custom Nicknames (Contacts)", "Start with TS3".
    8b. General... Confirm that "Hardware Overlay" > "Enable" is NOT checked.
    8c. Click on "Edit gamesettings.ini". This opens a Notepad page.
    8d. Scroll through the items on this page to find:

    [Launcher.exe]
    game.enabled=0

    Change the zero to 1 so you now have:

    [Launcher.exe]
    game.enabled=1

    Save the [gamesettings.ini] file and close the notepad screen.

    Close the TeamSpeak 3 Client.

    The TSNotifier icon will remain active. Close it by Right Clicking it in the toolbar and selecting "Quit". Failure to do so will result in a Windows warning the next time you try to start TeamSpeak 3 Client. It does not hurt anything, but is just another unwanted message.

    Start TeamSpeak 3 Client with the desktop shortcut and confirm the TSNotifier toolbar icon comes into view.
    Start "IL-2: Cliffs of Dover". After spawning an aircraft, a white text announcing TSNotifier active will scroll across the top. You are now good to go. Set your colors and other preferences if desired.

    EDIT 20151001 1104edst: I no sooner typed all this up, when TSNotifier failed to start. I have discovered that some popular programs, including "MSI Afterburner" was preventing TSNotifier from starting, but not from running once started, in Cliffs of Dover.

    In order to get TSNotifier to start with MSI Afterburner installed, you should load TeamSpeak 3 Client and start IL-2: Cliffs of Dover before starting MSI Afterburner. You should see the TSN text scroll across the top of the in-cockpit screen. This indicates that TSN is active.

    Then, if you want the convenient features of MSI Afterburner, simply hit the Windows key to exit to the desktop and start Afterburner normally. When you have finished, you may leave Afterburner running and return to CLoD with a click of it's icon in the lower left taskbar. TSNotifier will continue to operate. Incidentally, you do not have to spawn an aircraft before running Afterburner... TSN will work as long as "Launcher.exe" executes successfully.

    end of edit...


    EDIT - 20151029 Subsequent auto-update notifications have all worked since I wrote this. I just clicked to allow updating... no problems!

    EDIT - 20170213 I now use the latest versions of TS3 Client and TSNotifier, both run as administrator. For reasons unknown, CLoD will not start on my system if TS3 programs are running. After game startup I run a full screen CLoD after which I have to leave the game with the "Windows" key, then start the TS3 programs, then return to the game for trouble free TeamSpeak.

    Re: TSNotifier Installed on Windows 10 x64

    After speaking with others about this, there are apparently a number of programs that interfere with TSNotifier, not just MSI's Afterburner. The long and the short of this whole thing is that you don't have to go without TSNotifier. Take a little time to isolate your incompatible application and we should all be able to see who's speaking during CLoD.

    I also was having trouble with TSNotifier and tried all of your suggestions and it still would not work in CLoD.

    I spent a couple of hours investigating it and was fast becoming so frustrated with the whole thing. I got it working in my other games but not CloD until I noticed one small thing which was the simplest of fixes.

    When you Click on "Edit gamesettings.ini" and insert [Launcher.exe] game.enabled=1 ensure you use an upper case L and not a lower case L as TSNotifier may not work in CLoD as I found out.

    Maybe I'm missing something here?

    [ALT+TAB] or [CTL+ALT+TAB] only cycles through the open windows in Windows 10.

    What does that have to do with TSNotifier?

    Re: TSNotifier Installed on Windows 10 x64

    Missed this thread....so it maybe time for me to spend another 24 hours trying to figure it out...Never had any joy with TSNotifier, Overlay, Wolf...

    I hear folks talking about programs that are incompatible but I wouldn't have the faintest idea of how to find them......Any help on that would be...er...well...helpful

    My issue seems to be that when I go to TS and Settings then Plugins..the TS ones are always redded out....
