I used it before, but to identify a certain computer crash, I stopped using it. I think I identified the reason my computer crashed (faulty overclock) so Overwolf was not the problem. The TS overlay from Overwolf works very similar to the one from Teamspeak itself.

I tried overwolf! Very nice indeed, but sadly it wont work together with dxtory (It says so itself and force dxtory to quit).
Since I pay the dxtory license I wont switch to anothert recording prog... :roll:


Since two weaks my ts overlay causes BF3 to crash while starting up, worked 'perfectly' before that.

Origin overlay is off... Origin/Battlelog/TS all run in admin mode.
I've heard some friends having the exact same issue.

Anybody have any ideas on this? I've gotten really used to TS Overlay and feel kinda blind now when it is not working :cry:
Ok, so the battlelog update and/or the Teamspeak update this Monday? seemed to have fixed the join game issue. I can now have TS Overlay activated and is able to join BF3 game servers. However... the TS Overlay is not working - don't show in game.
Any ideas? Anyone else having this issue?

i can check it Saturday when i get back home.
i know its been said before but check that TS is started before BF3 and as administrator. does the TS logo appear once you go in-game? try assigning a key for the overlay and see if something comes up.

TS is started in admin mode before BF3 and no, the TS logo do not appear. A key is assigned (same as before the problems started).
Looking in the TS forum and TS Overlay forum, http://forum.teamspeak.com/forumdisplay ... ug-Reports, http://ts3overlay.r-dev.de/forum/index.php, it seems to be a general problem...

Last time this happened to me I had to reinstall TS. It's happening again to me, but I'm too lazy to reinstall right now to see if it fixes it at all.

I found these threads on Teamspeak forums, http://ts3overlay.r-dev.de/forum/viewto ... =4&t=47430 and http://forum.teamspeak.com/showthread.p ... rek-Online, which gave me some hope.
So... I tried to uninstall the Windows update KB2670838, however... it did not work for me. TS Overlay is still not working.
I haven't tried reinstalling Teamspeak/TS Overlay after removing the Windows update.

Still... I guess the problems might have started due to some Window updates...

Now I have the same problem, worked perfectly in the past though....and still works in other games (dota2). Something BF3 related. I wait for it to automatically work again in the future :roll: (updates, etc.). Dont bother to waste time fixing bugs and fiddle with windows updates.

yeah, i don't have windows updates enabled. it worked before the TS update/BF3 update and those are the only things that changed. it looks like the last TS update broke it for a lot of people in other games as well although it still works for some. i posted a bug report, hopefully they'll fix it soon.

Depending on what you actually need the overlay for, you could use alternatives.

If it's because you want to know who joins/leaves, you could use a phonetic sound pack ("Zebra joined" instead of "User joined your channel"). Link here: viewtopic.php?f=28&t=18436&p=198451
