=== FGCom-mumble ===
[https://github.com/hbeni/fgcom-mumble FGCom-Mumble] aims to provide a mumble based FGCom implementation. This will simulate radio communications in a seamless frequency spectrum. The project aims to be easy to use: Pilots just install the plugin, open mumble, join a specially named channel on a mumble server and start using their radio stack in Flightgear.
The development is discussed in the {{forum link|title=FGCom-mumble|f=32|t=37644}}. Releases can be downloaded from {{github source|user=hbeni|repo=fgcom-mumble|text=GitHub}}. The project also has a flightgear wikipage: [[FGCom-mumble]]
==== Release 0.14.2 fixes the broken updater issue - again====
The [https://github.com/hbeni/fgcom-mumble/releases/tag/v.0.14.2 release 0.14.2] fixes a bug with the windows built.
When installing trough the mumble plugin installer (or updater), the old DLL was still locked and could not be deleted.
Also, interrelated to the bug hunt, two bugs in mumble itself were found and fixed, also contributing to the behaviour.
The fixes were ported back to the upcoming Mumble 1.14 release, which went into feature freeze lately.
For testing, you need a download from the current Mumble nightlies (azure pipeline). Snapshot 6 from Mumble's downloads page is not enough (plugin is compatible, but need to be installed manually by unzipping the <code>.mumble_plugin</code> and copying the appropriate plugin library to mumbles plugin folder).
Please read the FGCom-mumble release notes for details and install instructions.
