Support for non-English audio-files #652

Open fixator10 opened 8 years ago

fixator10 commented 8 years ago

Support for select non-English audio if game has it and mounted. (Like HL2: hl2_sound_vo_russian_dir.vpk) GMod Audio Settings (Audio (Spoken) language at screenshot)

yeah! That would be cool

This just isn't something that can be done since we are not shipping different audio languages, and we won't be shipping them.

The thing is i suggested, is just add a support for localized mounted games. IIRC, Synergy does this. If game is mounted, and have translation pack, it will use it, instead of default english.

Bump.

I was in the process of writing a request for just that but I came across this one. It's really a pity you can't do it but many games offer the possibility as a DLC to have the sounds in a different language (and the possibility to change it via the game's Steam settings). If you could reconsider the question, many people would appreciate it. 🥇

My original request Title : Make Garry's Mod automatically download HL2 content in the user's native language. Since Garry's Mod offers a good level of support for the Half-Life 2 campaign, it would be nice if players could also have the background sounds (especially those of the overwatch or Civil Protection radios) in the user's language (if possible). Typically, a Spanish player doesn't want to hear English voices but Spanish voices, just like in Half-Life 2. In short, Garry's Mod should automatically download content in the user's language and/or replace the default English content. This would also be very useful for non-English speaking HL2RP servers which sometimes have to download external content in addition to the English content in order to have some sounds in their native language (it also takes up space on the hard drive for nothing). Also, the DarkRP gamemode offers by default a chatsounds system which works with HL2 voices. I'm afraid this request won't be done but if it's realized, it would be greatly appreciated by foreign community server owners.
