Introduction

Ventrilo interface un-skinned (click to see full pic)

Ventrilo interface WoW-skinned (click to see full pic)

This is a functional Ventrilo interface for Inner Space. The interface and script that manages it are open source, and use the Ventrilo LavishScript Module (which is not open source at this time). This system requires Inner Space build 4698 or later.

Features

• Double click to join a channel
• Single Ventrilo instance mode or Multi-instance mode switches between an untabbed or tabbed main window interface
• Separate window showing users in your current channel
• Separate window showing users currently speaking, with an option to toggle speakers you cannot hear (that normally show up Yellow in Ventrilo)
• All windows can be hidden or resized, and default to 33% transparency based on mouse position. CTRL+ALT+V brings the main window back, or the General tab of the options window (click the green check in the title bar) has buttons to bring the speaker or channel windows back.

Future releases

• Join private channels without tabbing out to enter your password
• Context menus for right clicking on channels or users
