🔊 Talk Modes - whisper/talk/yell

What is this?

Talk Modes is a simple and user-friendly solution that allows your players to manage the distance of their voice chat using three unique modes: whisper, talk and yell. Your players will be able to select their talk mode using a menu bound to a key specified in the in-game config. Talk Modes eliminates the issue of everyone being heard at a static and unpleasant range once and for all, being a perfect product for every roleplay server, be it SeriousRP or not. Talk Modes also takes pride in the fact that almost everything about the script is configurable through a sleek in-game menu with a special preview tool which allows you to visualize the distance.

Current list of Talk Modes features, more are planned later down the road:

Have a feature idea? Feel free to mention it in a support ticket or the script discussion, we'll definitely consider it. We're also looking for people to translate the script, if you know another language please send one of us a private message on gmodstore, you'll receive coupon for your help.

Support

If you run into any issues while using the script then please open a support ticket and patiently wait for a developer to help you. Support will only be handled using gmodstore tickets, please do not add us privately or ask for help in the discussions page. Providing your console.log for errors will be extremely useful, we also recommend installing SQLWorkbench because it can be helpful when debugging the in-game config.

Special thanks to these people for making the script possible:

• CupCakeR (Help & Advice)
• Sneaky Sqwuid (Circles Library)
• Luabee Gaming (Stencil Snippet)
• Miskie (Banner)
• Rako (Advice)
• Soberaja (Testing)
• FlatIcon (Icons)

The installation process is extremely simple, simply drag 'n' drop the addon into your addons folder, add content to your workshop collection and read the information below.

Talk Modes features an in-game config which allows you to ignore the files completely, by default the command to open the in-game config is !talkmodes and is only available to people with the superadmin rank, this can be changed in talkmodes/config/sh_config.lua but will not be necessary for most servers.

You're able to interact with the Talk Modes system using the following functions:

TalkModes:IsValidMode(strMode)

TalkModes:GetDistance(strMode)

PLAYER:SetTalkMode(strMode)

PLAYER:GetTalkMode()
