Spectators Voicechat

[Hani]

HI there,

 

I am probably about to finish a soundpack for my own server but i have a problem, Do anyone of u know how to make Voicechat or Soundpack menu pop up by pressing V button when ur on spectator especially in jaymod?

 

is there any code or something did i miss or i need to put for it?

 

Thank u !

Try looking into FA sound pack, ui/wm_quickmessageAlt.menu. The basic structure is there

 

If I remember well there was some cvar for spectator vsays, not sure though cause can't find it at the moment...

 

-> or you could just use better mods like Noquarter or silent

 

Little refference to cg_quickmessage function. (posting this cause It was useful when I was creating vsay pack myself)

Ingame bind key "mp_quickmessage" runs this code:

void CG_QuickMessage_f( void ) {
	if ( cgs.clientinfo[ cg.clientNum ].team == TEAM_SPECTATOR ) {
		return;
	}

	CG_EventHandling( CGAME_EVENT_NONE, qfalse );

	if ( cg_quickMessageAlt.integer ) {
		trap_UI_Popup( UIMENU_WM_QUICKMESSAGEALT );
	} else {
		trap_UI_Popup( UIMENU_WM_QUICKMESSAGE );
	}
}

Each mod has different settings...I could only find 2 relevant settings in jaymod 2.2.0:

match_mutespecs — enable/disable muting of spectators

Default: match_mutespecs 0

On server(In console) You can do: /rcon match_mutespecs  to see current value.



For testing:

g_voiceChatsAllowed sets the maximum number of voice chats allowable over a 30 second period.
A value of 0 disables voice chats.



Make sure ET settings are OK:

Esc, Options, Controls: Quick Chat: V

}

idk if pasting that script u gave me will work but ill try because almost every jaymod servers has wm_quickmessageAlt.menu starting like this:-

idk if this starting part of the script has anything to do with spectator's voicechat menu because afaik it might be a script for voicechat menu decoration.

 

=====================

@Buckwild the 2 methods u gave me were alrdy there on the server, no changes everything default but still voicechat menu for specs doesnt work :/

I didn't say paste, its a refference. Just to understand whats happening because some people might be changing wrong .menu files.

The code you posted is menu decoration so it doesn't change what you need.

 

Nice finding Buckwild, that's what I was talking about

 

Sorry Hani but at the moment, I can send what I know, when I have more time I'll run some tests on my offline servers.
