Bug 2.46 starter Audio English Only setting.....
« on: 12-04-2014, 03:04:07 »
2.46 Starter program does not hold the setting for the audio setting English VO Only.  Everytime I set the English only box the games works fine until I leave.  When I run the start program again it resets this value so that is un-checked.

Yes, the launcher intentionally resets the English VO Only checkbox every time. In our experiments, this option doesn't behave as advertised and instead disables all voice-overs making every team completely mute.

Thank you for the response.  What you call broken, I call being able to play without the distracting chatter going on.  Not to mention the language issue.  So now I have to go into the setting each and every time and check the box that makes the game play I wanted it to.  Thanks for a great mod....for the most part.

Well, as we say in germany: Can't fry a special sausage for every weirdo.

If you want to play without  the distracting chatter, here's the solution:
  • Go to the  <BF2 path>\mods\fh2\fh2settings folder on your PC and open gameplay.con file with any text editor.
  • Add the following line to the file:
    Quote
    AudioSettings.setEnglishOnlyVoices 1
  • Save the file.

This will override the launcher's behavior.
Note, the "English VO Only" checkbox will still be unchecked in the in-game options, but it works.

Gavrant,

Thanks so much for the reply.  Your suggestion for the edit of the gameplay.con.  It works great.  Much appreciated.  Where are things like this documented?
