  • Voice lines
    Press and hold key for a desired menu, then choose a voice line. All other players will hear what your character is saying.

  • Going idle
    Press and hold the key for Character selection menu and choose IDLE.

  • Character switching
    First go idle. Then using Character selection menu choose another available character.



IMPORTANT TO KNOW

What is "limited use"
These voice lines will work only on local servers and dedicated servers where this add-on is installed, and in single player. They CANNOT WORK on official Valve servers!

Miscellaneous menus
Some voice lines in these menus work only for L4D1 and some only for L4D2 characters.

Some voice lines can't always work
For some lines to work, certain conditions have to be met (for example, you must not be in fight). Also, many voice lines are not available in Scavenge and Survival.

When can't go idle
You can't go idle if you are the only player, or if all other players are already idle.

Note on switching characters
After switching characters, you will need to select your new character again to properly mount all of its character-specific menus.

Vocalizer in Versus and Scavenge on official servers
All add-ons are disabled when playing competitive modes on official Valve servers. However, you can follow my guide to make the vocalizer work there.



DEDICATED SERVER INSTALLATION
(for server admins only)

Install the add-on on your server, so players can use all radial menus and all responses:
  1. Download my vocalizer from GameMaps[www.gamemaps.com]
  2. Put the VPK file in \left4dead2\addons
  3. Restart your server


CREDITS

  • Add-on is derived from earlier version of VOX vocalizer
  • Add-on thumbnail image is made by StoneRabbit[garrysmods.org]


NOTICE FOR MODDERS

You can use my vocalizer (in whole or part of it) as a foundation for your own mod. But if you release that mod anywhere, you're required to give me proper credit — write in your mod's description that it's based on ion's Vocalizer (with link to this page).

@Whiplash: No, vocalizer is not changing subtitles in any way.

@bro bro: Everyone can use character-specific menus, but those labeled as "limited use" will work only when you play on local and dedicated servers which have my vocalizer installed (they use vocalizer's server-side VScripts).
bro bro 29 Jan @ 2:12pm 
you have to choose the character your playing on character selection to get the character specific menus in multiplayer also can the other person playing that isnt the host use the character specific menu?

@Quoddard: Select "Local Server" and start a Campaign game, so you'll be the host. Other option is to join other server which has my vocalizer installed (either local or dedicated, but not official).

@The Man of sex: "Ca caw" in Character-specific 8 (limited use) for Ellis.

@Quoddard: You should know by now that addons are disabled in Versus by default. But you can modify your addonconfig.cfg file and allow addons when you locally host Versus games.

Huh so I can’t use it in a regular multiplayer match?
