BoomBoxOverhaulV2

This is an overhaul of my original BoomboxOverhaul mod. The original mod was designed to work with a specific youtube boombox mod that is no longer maintained. Because of this I decided to implement a working, albeit sometimes temperamental YouTube playback.

BoomBoxOverhaulV2 adds:

• YouTube video playback
• YouTube playlist playback
• Automatic yt-dlp / ffmpeg dependency handling
• Local boombox volume controls
• Scrolling track title in the held-item HUD (This may change in a future version as I am not entirely happy with it)
• In-game boombox URL input UI
• Infinite battery option
• Keep-playing-while-pocketed behavior

Usage

• Hold a boombox and press B to open the URL UI.
• Paste a YouTube video or playlist URL.
• Press Play.
• Use - and = to adjust local volume.

Notes

• This mod downloads and uses yt-dlp and ffmpeg when required.
• The boombox HUD shows the current track title.
• All players should have the mod installed for it to work.

Configuration

Config file (henreh.boomboxoverhaul.cfg) is generated through BepInEx and contains options for:

• Infinite battery
• Keep playing while pocketed
• Volume keys
• Cache size
• Playlist autoplay
• Dependency auto-download behavior
• Server wide or Local volume options (Host of the session will determine this), this is to avoid abuse of the volume controls.

Planned content

• I am looking to add back the volume change ability when looking at a place boombox, I recently found my source for V1 so expect this soon
• I am looking to improve performance with this mod soon
• I am looking to make the mod compatiable with Spotify and potentially soundcloud links
• I am looking to remove boombox weight value, I am currently busy so will only be doing bugfixes this week from inital V2 launch

Issues

There may be issues because I am still trying to figure out YTDL and it has been a while since I created modifications for this game. If there are any ping me in the Lethal company modding/regular discord (@henreh.) or use the github issues page :D
