Have you ever wanted to have your friend/random internet strangers hear your yelling? No? Well here's how to make your Ready or Not voicelines work when you yell at enemies.

First, here's what you're going to need:
1) Be playing on PCVR using SteamVR.
2) Any soundboard, I use soundpad because it plays a random sound from a collection without needing to script anything. Voicemod can work, but it's an overpriced piece of garbage, just use soundpad, it's worth the $5.
3) OpenVR2Key: This is the most important part, and this is needed to make it so when you click up on your joystick to yell in game, it triggers the sound effect. You can download the latest release here[github.com]

Once you have OVR2K installed, you can add it to your steam library so it auto launches with SteamVR (I'm not going over how to add it, it's not too hard).


Launch it (and steamVR). You should see a bunch of different letters and numbers like L1 and R5, those are the button inputs on your controller. For this guide's purposes, we are going to set R3 through R7 to numbers on your keyboard that you won't use while playing VR. I set them to buttons on my numpad, however if you don't have a full keyboard, anything else works. For this example, R4 is right joystick up, so bind that to numpad 4.


Congrats, now you've set up your keybinds!

Again, for this guide I'm using soundpad, but any other soundboard will work as long as it's set up correctly, and can take keybinds. Soundpad just works the best.

For soundpad, you're going to want to right click on the column on the left, go to categories, and add a category. The name doesn't matter, except for not confusing you. Next, you're going to want to right click on the category you just created, and near the bottom click "add hotkey". Then, set the hotkey to numpad 4, since that's what you set right joystick up to in OVR2K.

Now the fun part, adding sounds. You can put whatever you want in there, and it will be played randomly when you push up on your joystick.

To put sounds directly from ready or not in there, you're going to have to either have a copy of the game installed, or grab the sounds from online. The sounds are located at:

steamapps\common\Ready Or Not\ReadyOrNot\Content\VO\SWATJudge

The audio files you want for yelling at suspects is [CALL]YellAtCivilian_(number), [CALL]YellAtSuspect_(number) , and [CALL]WeaponDropGeneric(number). Those are the best suited ones. You can either drag and drop those sound files into the category, which works, but will break if you uninstall RoN, or you can copy the sound files to an external directory and put them into soundpad that way, which is just a bit more trouble.

Once you're done with that, put on your headset and see if the audio is played in soundpad, if you can't hear it, check your settings.
