Yeah, you're probably just going to have to live with that. Don't think there are any solutions at the moment.

Really hope this can be sorted out asap...Not having overlay working when playing PR is a kinda torture. because you will not know which teammate is speaking...

Hope this gets sorted out in 1.0

*Update*
I have followed all the steps posted here and this is what works for me.
(running both PR and mumble as admin)
Now I can play online, but with no mumble overlay which is a big issue for me

What works for me is to turn overlay off, launch PR first, and then Mumble. I can launch mumble without overlay first, but it wont link to bf2.

Im hoping that with 1.0 we will get mumble updated. Not sure if the newest build of mumble has adressed the overlay issue in Windows 8 so that pr mumble can incorporate it.

I hope this will be fixed!

So this is a problem for all W8 users? I have everything installed, I run as admin, but BF2 does not link and it doesn't automatically connect me to channels...

It should work, make sure u launch bf2 and pr mumble as an admin. Only thing isn't working in Win8 is the PR mumble overlay.

As I said, I did that, numerous times. Doesn't matter now, I fixed it. A DLL became misplaced. I didn't know what it was, but I tried moving into the Mumble folder. After that, it worked.

Guys got overloay problem, do you have Optimus technology (Nvidia and intragted Intel) ?
Because i have this issues on win7 and i solve it like follow :
- force PR and Bf2 run on Nvidia, and disable the first option "allow multi GPU help if need" I set it to "unique GPU". I am french so i don't know the english name of setting, but it is the first one.
- mumble run on integrated Intel

And everythings is fine.
