HUD: Voice chat icon not shown ingame

[kai-li-wop]

In WoP 1.6, the voice chat icon above the player's head was displayed through walls due to a missing shader. With WoP 1.6.1 and 1.6.2, it has now unfortunately disappeared completely. If a player is using voice chat, it will not be displayed above his head.

should be fixed - feedback welcome

Under what conditions can you test this? I just started a local game and then went to the 3rd person view. As long as I start recording with the PushToTalk button, no microphone icon is displayed above my player character. I remember the feature used to work the same like the WoP icon above the player character in normal text chat. Maybe it is only possible to test in online matches with other players. This would need to wait until a server is up and running beta tests.

As far as I can say you don't see it for yourself (on purpose)

CG_DrawVoiceNames contains

        if (i == cg.predictedPlayerState.clientNum)
            continue;

Using the Current Codebase i can Confirm that the Voice Chat Icons show up properly in-game:

Tested on a local game.
