Question about the skinwalker mod

[Icky]

does anybody know if the skinwalker mod works with any languages, or just english?

[Wolfsmaul-GER]

it does not care for language, it seems to take sentences, even single words and background noise, it puts these into short clips that will be played back by monsters

[TheQtherGuy]

any language, it takes audio from your mics and plays it back

[Hazode]

Any noise works. As long as your mic is outputting audio, the skinwalker mod can use that audio as clips for monsters. The mod doesn't use any speech recognition (which is a shame, but I'd assume that'd be hard to code without proper dev tools or maybe a license from Windows?), so that means it will literally pull any audio output from your microphone.

That might make it sound a bit bad, but my friend uses a mechanical keyboard and has a hot mic, so sometimes I just hear clickity clacking thinking it's my friend, but then I get a snare flea on my head.

It may be worth mentioning too, since it doesn't use any type of speech recognition, the clips the skinwalkers use will rarely if ever make any contextual sense - but when they do, you're in for a treat.

Wish it synced with all players in the lobby.

SAME! Although it would be a little weird to hear your own voice coming from a monster, which I assume is one of the reasons they're client side?

Most likely is. It still works really well with confusing you about where the others are.
This is especially true when you are using Brutal Company Plus and get an event that spams Snare Fleas or Hoarding Bugs and you are just surrounded by voices.

thank you all for the answers!!

Nothing involved having your voice recorded & reused is safe. Worse it may ended up as stolen product and used to fake identification and more.
Dev'll face lot of lawsuit if any scandal were to happen too mod or not.

I'd suggest you use voice change before hand.

The mod dev states that all audio clips get auto deleted. So i'm sure it's fine enough but take it with a grain of salt.

I dont know how trustworthy the response is from the other one, literally named "Lethal Company Sucks", but I'm pretty sure the mod is safe. I'd be very surprised if they did more with it. If you are worried about a mod recording your voice, maybe also be worried every time you would play a game with streamers, I mean ya never know.

Nah, it's safe.

any application that uses your mic can record your voice and use it. it's how they are able to work in the first place.

do you use discord? that one can use your mic and theoretically record it for nefarious purposes.
same with the normal voice chat function of lethal company.
heck, if you want to be super safe, just disconnect your microphone form your PC. but then it becomes boring.

It records any sounds picked up by a players mic. It even picked up my friends mechanical keyboard sounds, so anything can happen.

Mod literally saves and stores it locally on your system.

This would only become a problem if it saved it to a server but as far as I know without checking it stores locally, that’s why it’s purely client side.
