Simplest Subtitles Framework

Simplest Subtitles

Description
The simplest take on custom subtitles.

Features:
- Uses Half-Life 2's Closed Captions system
- Toggle on/off in Options -> Audio -> Captioning
- Supports both clientside and serverside sounds (like HUD sounds or HL1 NPCs)
- Subtitles can be added to soundscripts (in the "snd" field) and sentences
- Subtitles can be chained (another line shows after one expires, put name in the "chain" field)
- Backwards compatible with all SSF packs

This mod does not provide any subtitles by itself, you might want to install some:
- Half-Life 1 subtitles pack
- HL2 Combine Overwatch subtitles pack
- HL2 Resistance subtitles pack
- Look for more packs in the official collection (which is also shown above the description)
- Or create your own! Here's the template: https://pastebin.com/Yd2pMDf9

would be pretty nice if you would be able to replace already existing subtitles with custom ones, i've tried it, and it only made the unedited original and the custom text both appear.

Can this be uploaded to HL2 workshop or does it not work because of Lua?

I don't know where exactly these scenes play in your map, so I don't have a way to reproduce your problem right now.

Well I am making scene files in faceposer and then playing them in map with map outputs, i tried both wavs and soundscripts, maybe im missing some step, ill try to find a solution today

Seems to work for me as I'm using PlayScene function on an NPC: https://imgur.com/a/Ut6oIpV
You should really consider using soundscripts though.

doesnt seem to, i put the .wav filepath both in the scene file and specified it in the subtitles .lua (the .wav)

Does putting path to sound file not work?
