Ventrilo 3.0.1 Client and 3.0.2 Server
19 11 2007Well, that didn’t take long… 3.0.0 has come and gone with Ventrilo as the team released updates to both the server and client software early this week.
The client changes, as you can read below, seem mostly aestetic; however, I’m sure hosting companies are pleased to see some of the fault issues fixed in 3.0.2.
Here’s the changes:
Version 3.0.2 Server only:
Fixed exception fault when loading a damaged channel file.
Fixed private chat replicating problem. Pro server only.
Modified Account management so that it is harder to lock your self out of the server.
Server Admin->Login will now give complete rights like 2.3 did. With the exception of Edit Voice/Cmd targets which are user account specific anyway and Pro server only.
Upgrading a 2.3 to 3.0 server will automatically assign full admin rights to an old account that already had the server admin right.
Modified USR and TRG files to be automatically updated in 1 minute instead of 1 hour.
Fixed server name length to be a minimum of 2 characters instead of 4.
When upgrading a 2.3 server to 3.0, or creating a new 3.0 server from scratch, the server will assume Duplicate IP’s settings of “No Limit”.
Version 3.0.1 Client only:
User Editor: Made current user list window wider and added support for horizontal scroll bar when needed.
User Editor: Pressing new button will now default Duplicate IP’s to No Limit.
User Editor: Generic User and Generic admin profiles now default Duplicate IP’s to No Limit.
User Editor: Removed feature where clicking on an existing account name in the main window would cause a selection change in the UE Window. While useful in some cases it creates more problems that it solved. Might make this an option in a future version.
Main Window: Display of the (GUEST) tag is now off by default. Can be turned on via new menu option View -> Guest tags.
Guest MOTD: Now provides option to display only if it changes.
Chat: Time stamp option will now display correct month number.
Menu: When paired with 3.0.2 server, using the Server Admin -> Login will now allow certain menu items to be usable instead of grayed out.
You can download (and install over your existing installation) here. Looks like hosting companies, like NationVoice, are still at 3.0.0. Hopefully this will change in the next few days.
From my server logs:
20050325 01:43:50 Version = 3.0.0
Then again… why does it think it’s 2005. *boggle*
hey how do i get 2 log on my vent 2 work it saids Server is running version 3.0.2
I dont know how to download ventrilo 3.0.2 . How does i do that?
@nick - If your server is running 3.0.2; you’ll need version 3.0.1 of the client.
You can download it here.

@louis - You can download Ventrilo 3.0.1 CLIENT or 3.0.2 SERVER from http://www.ventrilo.com/download.php.
I have the 3.0.1 CLIENT and im trying to connect to a 3.0.2 SERVER but it wont let me. It says i need to update my client to 3.0.2. I beleive this is because i have vista home edition, any suggestions? Running as administrator didn’t work either…
Yeah 3.0.1 client WILL NOT CONNECT TO 3.0.2 server, hmm looks like Ventrilo needs to think before they speak. this is leaving me hanging with my 50 person clan without my ventrilo server.
@Kevin/@Vents-
I wish I had a good answer for you. I’m using NationVoice for our guild/linkshell chats and when I look at the logs (and I’ve verified by their technical staff), we’re on version 3.0.2 server:
Version = 3.0.2
I’m running the client 3.0.1 on Windows Vista Ultimate x64. It connects without any problems. I am running the application as administrator (since it’s Vista), but there aren’t any other configuration snafus past that.
Check out this post on the forums regarding firewall issues–maybe that’s it. I explicitly allowed Ventrilo on the Windows firewall.

Beyond that, my recommendation would be to post it up (or maybe find an existing post) that matches your issues. The Ventrilo forums are pretty active:

Good luck!
This whole thing is a pandemic in my opinion.I mean, people like kevin have some big crap to do on vent, and we can’t get on. I personally run a guildwars clan of the max 100 people. In terms of vent, its a riot, but we still need it. I’ not saying it’s anyones fault, but obviously firefox or whoever makes these vent announcements and servers, needs to get another job because they suck at keeping the peace.
This was your man Leon, keeping the facts alive.
My bad, ventbullshit is who i meant, not Kevin, sorry dude
Hello when i try to connect to ventrilo nothing happens it starts to work like i´m about to get into vent but then nothing happens i can press disconnect and the sound off when you disconnect going threw my ears i added ventrilo to my firewall but it still doesn´t work do you think it can be something about my router or something? really happy if you respond thanks/ Patrik
Hi, i want to host a public ventrilo server, and i got linux as my OS..
And the limit of people on the server is 8… Can someone help me with a program for linux, so i can set it up to 1000 or something ?

thank you for answering and thank you for your time

Set the limit up to 1000 or something**
@Tommy-André-
Unfortunately, you can’t with the public version. To setup more, you’ll need the pro version with requires a contract agreement and service agreement with Ventrilo. They do this to attempt to control and regulate how their servers are run to be certain, I’m assuming, they meet certain quality standards.

VENTRILO 3.0.2 Wont work its there fukin fault and there a bunch of diks
TELL ME WHEN ITS FIXED PLZ
@3litepker-
Vent 3.0.2 works just fine; I and my entire linkshell as well as all my friends on EQ2 use it almost every night. I’d suggest inspecting your computer’s configuration to ensure your sound input device (headset or boom mic) is configured as the default sound device and that you’re running Vent as the administrator (if Vista).
