Discord: How to set up push to talk.
A short informative tutorial on how to set up “Push To Talk” in Discord. As much as I love Discord for voice chatting, I can see how people will find it confusing. I remember when I was new to Discord; it was so mind numbing that I ended up staring blankly at the screen and drooling on myself.
Ok, so yeah, follow these steps:
Pro Tip: Download Discord to your desktop. It’s so much better than messing with the website browser one.
Step One: Open your desktop Discord
Step Two: Go all the way to the bottom where your profile picture is. You will see a icon that looks like a gear wheel. Click that.
Step Three: Scroll down the side menu and look for Voice / Video and click that.
Step Four: I’m assuming you will have your input and output device set up. If not, this is where you need to do it at.
Step Five: Check mark “Push to Talk”
Step Six: Click into the box and hold down two keys that you want to use.
Step Seven: Click the ESC at the top. It will automatically save your settings.
Note You can also do a mic / push to talk test on the same page.
How to find your Steam profile ID number.
There are a handful of games out there that require you have your “Steam ID” number and Steam doesn’t make it really that easy to find. So I thought I would list the steps here.
Step 1:
Open your Steam console from your desktop and click on “View” from the top menu.
Step 2:
Click on settings and then click on Interface
Step 3:
From the interface menu: Check mark “Display Steam URL address bar when available” and hit “Ok.”
Step 4:
Once, you hit ok, the menu will close out. Go to your profile. Your ID number will appear at the very end of web link.
