Thanks, Catalyst20XX! That looks promising I'll give it a whirl.

I have heard of the following:
https://teamspeak.com/en/features/overview/
https://discordapp.com/ I heard this is free.
https://www.pcmag.com/roundup/268017...ncing-software
Of course, Skype or some other video conference software?
I haven't used these yet leaning this direction due to research.
Hope this helps.Last edited by Ragnar Redbeard; November 9th, 2019 at 02:50.

Their is a free community TeamSpeak server. imo it is superior to the others when it comes to just sound, since it doesn't do video.
Discord is a great all around app. Is free to setup a server and allows voice, video, desktop sharing, and provides an threaded IM type of discussion.
Skype is bad, imo. Lots of bandwidth issues and not better in anyone aspect than Discord.

A lot of what is being talked about here comes across as a foreign language to me. Very new to tech.
But, I think this thread is discussing what I wish to do.
1) Run FG.
2) Run FG with people by inviting them.
3) Run FG with Discord Video Chat so that all people can see and interact with each other, as well as FG, also by inviting them.
4) Run all of this on one computer and one monitor.
Is there a step-by-step, hand holding, instructional tutorial somewhere that would show me exactly what I need to do to make this happen?
Would FG and Discord be all I need to make this happen, or is there something else I am missing?
Newb stages with things are very frustrating, stressful, and not fun, so please be kind in responses so that the negative aspects are not escalated.
Thanks!
