Since DJ_WEST prompted a way to let Survivors vocalize things which were accessible using vocalize, ive whipped up a lil Plugin so i can out-vocalize ANYONE on my server.


Example:

Rochelles secret Boobies Announcement is "sm_voc_this world04" while playing Rochelle


Using this code you can cause your Survivor to say absolutely anything a vocalize routine (=scenefile) even exists for.


Ive also attached the response rule files, which feature almost all sounds' subtitles - you can find the scenepaths you need to specify in there.
Usually they equal the soundfile names, so if you got a hawt soundfile, try its name as input.


For more info read the file header

The german version had to meet decency requirements imposed by whatever ratings body the german government has. It's the same with the australian version. That is also why th german version uses the CS:S guns.

As soon as anyone picks up a gas can in the Dead Center Finale, or any Scavenge map, the entire server crashes with this plugin enabled

Due to Valves rather oppressive approach to Vocalization this is the only way left to vocalize anything but the standard calls.

If i find a lot of spare time i might someday try and find out where theyve put the Vocalize block. (I looked once, actually, but only found a blocked Vocalize command)

Today, I coded a source plugin and my idea was getting the ConcommandBase of vocalize using ICVar.

Looks like, valve has even removed that (instead of flagging it inaccessible).
I remember some concommands from source you can't directly call from console but from menus like muting a user (concommand for that is called "vban").

They patched custom radialmenu support via .vpk back in so its not that urgent.


And thats where the problem lies, i guess. They entirely disabled serverside Vocalization, which means disassembling the server wont get us anywhere. Wed have to find out how to 'fake' whatever a Radial Menu calls on.

What are you talking about? This method works. Or did I miss something?
