What does it do?
it's a Discord bot that is made to run in windows that combines .wav files in the order that you type them in discord.
It's made to be able to recreate the VOX lines from Half-Life
syntax: { !play } { desired wav subfolder } {words, words, words}
In order to use this you need to make your own bot account and get the token. You can follow the instructions here to do that https://youtu.be/f7poEyI0lAQ
Right now all you need to do is to find your desired wav pack (Google is your friend) and extract it into a subfolder with something you won't mind typing to trigger the command, for example, I have a HEV folder for the hev lines, so when I want to trigger that I type
<!play hev hiss beep getmedkit>
Each generated sound will be saved in the working folder seperately. I'll add the option to overwrite itself later. Just makes it easier to keep hold of good lines, but it is wasteful.
Some notes:
- Due to the way that Discord.NET works, this does not support Windows 7 or below
- You need to make sure you only use .WAV files that have the same bitrate and channels
- I plan on allowing much more customization, but I thought I would get a more basic version out now rather than later
Some goals:
- Allow zipped soundpacks
custom trigger word✅GUI Console that logs usage (Steam 2004 look)✅- Reduce the dll usage. I don't know why it's like that. I'm trying to figure it out
- Ability to show you all the words you messed up instead of just the first one
help menu that scans and shows pages of available sounds in a given pack✅
