/// BEGIN TRANSMISSION ///

Hi! I'm Kail, and you might've seen me around the PAYDAY 2 community here and there.

I've been working with Dougley (the maker of Alpha HUD Restoration and Lightning & Rain Restoration, also on core LASTBULLET) to produce PROJECT: Canary, a completely audio-based mod that will hope to attend to the emptiness around the characters and their thoughts ingame.

Below are some small preview videos to showcase some of the things we've added to stealth, the assault, as well as interaction to the Point of No Return timers.

/// SHOWCASES ///

PROJECT: Canary is entirely based around Lua scripts, so with luck the game won't break with every update.

///TUTORIAL / INSTALLATION ///

The BLT hook is not compatible with HoxHud, and in turn, HoxHud is not compatible with PROJECT: Canary. I may create a version compatible with HoxHud in the future, but I am focused on bringing a mod with full functionality first.

To install PROJECT: Canary, you must first install the BLT hook. Head over to http://paydaymods.com/download/ and download the BLT Lua hook, then extract the contents into your root PAYDAY 2 folder.

Then, visit the LASTBULLET.net download page by clicking here[forums.lastbullet.net], and download the mod. After, navigate to PAYDAY 2/mods/.

Mods that are built off the BLT hook are installed slightly differently than the old Lua hook. Inside the .zip will be a folder called CANARY. Simply drop this folder into PAYDAY 2/mods/. And there you have it - PROJECT: Canary is now installed. Launch your PAYDAY 2.

It will prompt you with a mail notification on first start up. This is how you know you installed it correctly.

Other than Bain voicelines, are you planning to enhance the cop VO as well?

I miss chicken plates.

DOUBLE TAP! TRIPPLE TAP! JUST KEEP TAPPING! - Best line ever.

Mr Sandman already put out a mod for those lines IIRC.

To OP: This. Is. Brilliant.

I look forward to this being a seminal work in the community.

Playing Payday 1 after playing 2 made me realise just how much character interaction was missing in the sequel, hope this mod will bring some of that "crew" feel back.

[Rady]

Saw this somewhere, looks really nice so far
If you ever need help with preview video's or testing, i'd love to assist

I know, I use the mod and it's awesome. Although I do wish they spoke a little more frequently.

also can I question
what hud mod do you use?
It's pocohud (maybe something different) but it looks different
and for the "Point of no return" instead of using PD:TH bain voices what about the one in HB Day 2, when you get the server? (or just add it alongside)

[iris loves you]

Thanks everyone for your support!

It's not a current priority, but it would be possible in later revisions :D

Publicado originalmente por ANARCHY or something:

Edit: Question to author, is this mod separate from the Alpha Restoration mod, or is it included with it in one download?

It will be separate from the Alpha HUD Restoration mod, but it will be fully compatible and encouraged to use them alongside each other. You can do whatever you like!

It is PocoHud. Possibly you have PocoHud's unique timers instead of the Vanilla timers as a setting.

As well, certain voice lines are locked to certain heists, so that's currently not possible. However, we are looking up ways to bypass this restriction.

Sweed work mang

[Marauder Shields]

Damn it looks superb. Hopefully one day OVK will themselves patch all those tons of unused lines they left. Wouldn't it be a spoiler if I ask about ETA for this mod or Restoration 4.0 ?
