can you make an kleiner lab reverb like this from xbox port https://youtu.be/xa8HAeeoTaU?t=1098

Thanks for telling me. I still don't know whats up with the video though, even on full volume breen sounds like he's speaking quieter than normal
THG  [author] Apr 3 @ 8:54am 
The effect doesn't scale correctly when not using surround sound but the video should definitely not be quiet. If the video is quiet then you need to check your own audio first.

I think breen's voice is waay too quiet, even in the video it is quiet. Is it possible to make him louder?

Also for HL2VR, make sure the game is in 7.1 surround sound since this mod scales down the effect with less speakers (sorry I couldn't find a way to fix that)
Place these commands in the file cfg/autoexec.cfg
snd_surround_speakers 7
windows_speaker_config 7

I recommend you just grab the files for anything from the HL2 Workshop you want in HL2VR.

Get the ID for the mod from the url id=3366771296 so
steamapps\workshop\content\220\3366771296
then place in
steamapps\common\Half-Life 2 VR\hlvr\custom

It would be more work to bring this to the HL2VR workshop and it also might not even work through there so you should just copy the stuff yourself.

Could you upload your mods to HL2VR Workshop?

You have a custom .bsp map file installed without the patch
Multiplexer Dec 30, 2024 @ 1:46am 
I get trigger debug when playing in game. Why?
THG  [author] Dec 23, 2024 @ 4:23pm 
I don't really know exactly what you're talking about. If you install "Lost Coast Fixes" manually as suggested in the description, it should be good.
Also please consider keeping comments to a minimum, on the mod page you're talking about or opening a thread in the discussions menu above if needed. Thanks
THG  [author] Dec 23, 2024 @ 2:14pm 
Yes, I have a fix for this issue (which is not only specific to my mod) along with enhancements to Lost Coast in another mod here https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3375896488

Amazing addon, now its not that one boring PC audio, this is realistic just like on xbox!
thepowercyborg Dec 20, 2024 @ 6:28am 
valve should've done this for all ports and not only for the original xbox
THG  [author] Dec 10, 2024 @ 10:21pm 
Nope. Only one speaker reverb effect should be on at a time but I guess the Breencast monitors don't properly shut off during that scene. I could try fix it with more edits to the map but I'm not going to maintain that for all the patches made too. You can fix it yourself if you really care just by entering "dsp_speaker 50" into console during that scene

Is Kliener's call with Barney meant to have reverb too?
THG  [author] Dec 1, 2024 @ 10:29am 
the_vm Nov 30, 2024 @ 8:51pm 
Yeah Lost Coast also breaks if you have Gman intro replacer (and probably any other intro replacers) + anything that changes game_sounds_manifest which will mute the dialogue lmao
▽ENGE◬NCE Nov 30, 2024 @ 2:21pm 
Would be good if it didn't require extra steps to work.
THG  [author] Nov 30, 2024 @ 9:51am 
You're right. Lost Coast crashes because Valve, instead of easily unifying the engine branches, decided to make this impressively engineered clusterfuck of a system and the Lost Coast background map shares it's name with the default HL2 background map causing the error.

I'll make a fix soon.
THG  [author] Nov 30, 2024 @ 9:45am 
Fixed up the confusion and errors with intro test replacement. I managed to get it running, if you have errors use the GameBanana versions exclusively. Hope it helps.
the_vm Nov 30, 2024 @ 5:51am 
Crashes when launching Lost Coast?
Weird Albedo tint Nov 29, 2024 @ 10:24pm 
I had done that and left a comment on the gamebanana page for this addon about how even with just the GB versions i could not get it to work.
THG  [author] Nov 29, 2024 @ 2:34pm 
The patch was made for the GameBanana version since that one was newer. I recommend both getting the mod and patch from GameBanana.
Weird Albedo tint Nov 29, 2024 @ 8:29am 
Trying to make the compatibility patch work between this and test chamber replacement intro btw.
Weird Albedo tint Nov 29, 2024 @ 8:25am 
How would i apply a compatibility patch i have the patch in my custom folder alongside the mod its for but starting a new game with it causes an illusory func error.
Trog Nov 25, 2024 @ 8:22pm 
Don't work
THG  [author] Nov 25, 2024 @ 4:32am 
That mod only edits audio files so it should be fine
Trog Nov 24, 2024 @ 10:52pm 
I think this might be conflicting with the Overwatch voice reverb mod https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3367994983&searchtext=overwatch
THG  [author] Nov 24, 2024 @ 6:03pm 
Patch is up
JuoNoVom Nov 24, 2024 @ 5:51pm 
Can you please make a patch for Skip Gman Intro (HL2) ?
Kuobano Nov 24, 2024 @ 5:37pm 
Ohh okay
J.H. Brewster, Byzanium Master Nov 24, 2024 @ 12:40pm 
hm, fair.
THG  [author] Nov 24, 2024 @ 12:38pm 
No, that's cringe.



(probably but I'm not doing all that)
J.H. Brewster, Byzanium Master Nov 24, 2024 @ 12:29pm 
wouldn't it be easier and more compatible to just change the audio files themselves?
Klorbus Nov 22, 2024 @ 5:53am 
they do, just checked.

10/10 very silly
THG  [author] Nov 22, 2024 @ 5:52am 
It should be as long as they don't change the map in any way
Klorbus Nov 22, 2024 @ 5:37am 
Is this mod Compatible with other modded voices/voice lines?

such as "Breen F#cking loses it" or "Jerma voice for Wallace Breen"
THG  [author] Nov 21, 2024 @ 9:30am 
Patch up for it.
Jingo Spunk Nov 21, 2024 @ 4:45am 
@THG this mod seems to crash if you have both it and GO F#%K YOURSELF gman intro enabled
THG  [author] Nov 21, 2024 @ 2:33am 
When you go through the additional installation steps, disable the addon in the Workshop menu.
Calvin491 Nov 21, 2024 @ 2:20am 
Crashes my game when I try to load one up.
Kuobano Nov 20, 2024 @ 7:11pm 
Uh there is a Engine Error message that reads. "DSP_LoadPresetFile: unable to open 'scripts/dsp_presets.txt' "
Hex Nov 19, 2024 @ 1:02pm 
this should have been part of the update
fidget Nov 19, 2024 @ 1:46am 
will do
THG  [author] Nov 19, 2024 @ 1:11am 
If there's anything else to add, I'd appreciate it if we could move this over to the Discussions page at the top so the comments aren't flooded.
THG  [author] Nov 19, 2024 @ 1:10am 
It's setup the same as the original game's reverb effects so I wouldn't expect people to have an issue with only this mod's audio specifically. I'm not an expert in audio and didn't plan for any specific setup. This mod should be setup for anyone to use provided they do the additional installation steps mentioned in the description.

Personally I use 7.1, the audio was downmixed to stereo and compressed for the video when recorded on OBS. While I do have some other sound mods enabled, (edit of soundmixers.txt and dsoal EAX reverb) I did not find them to have a significant impact to the demo video.
