vACC Switzerland TeamSpeak

It's a pleasure for me to announce that we're finally upgrading our TeamSpeak-Server from v2 up to v3. There are a lot new functions implemented, it has a more modern look and the voice quality is improved.

We've waited quite some time, as we wanted to have an easy setup to connect your vatsim-id and your TeamSpeak-3-id together.
There are written guides (available in German and English) which will guide you trough the setup and configuration-pages of your new client.

You can find those guides on our home page in the following categories:

http://www.vacc.ch/de/für_piloten/other_docs/
http://www.vacc.ch/en/for_controllers/other_downloads/
http://www.vacc.ch/en/for_pilots/other_docs/

IMPORTANT: The change from TS2 to TS3 will be on Wed, January 23rd, 00:00 UTC.

You can set up your TS3 installation right now and connect yourself to our new server.
But please keep in mind that TS2 is the coordination platform for controllers before the release/changeover date - thank you.
