Description
This mod adds Triggers and NPC characters to certain areas to allow talking NPC's. It will give more life to your server. This mod is based on SpawnerBubaku trigger idea.
Installation
You need to add -mod=@TalkingNPC to your server startup parameters. When you first run this mod, it will create a new folder called TalkingNPC in your server profile folder. The default config which is for the AoD map so make sure you make the edits for your map of choice. This mod works with any map.
How It works
In the config you can define trigger areas. When a player enters this area, your selected sound will play. The config is very descriptive so don't worry. Russian sounds begins with index 1, Czech sounds begins with index 501, English sounds begins with index 1001, Chinese begins with 1501, ambient sounds begins index 2001. Mod is compatible with old Trader and also with new TraderPlus. Next Days trader not supported.
These npc have TNPC_ prefix in their classname. When you spawn this npc (using trader mod for example) at same postion like trigger, that npc is automatically assigned to trigger and is animated when talking.
Numbers of sounds: - Russian: 57 - Czech: 90 - English: 209 - Chinese: 20 - Polish: 37 - Spanish: 60 - ambient sounds: 196
More sounds are coming soon. You can of course play own sounds, only limitation is your soundset must be named Talking_SoundSet<number>.
Future plans
- custom emotes
Known Issues
- ogg files from stalker are somehow broken and engine then does not recognize that playing is finished - this leads to not stop talking animation
