ValheimNet Villagers

WORK IN PROGRESS. Living Viking villagers, AI voices and chat, and bosses, Hildir bosses and humanoid monsters that trash-talk you and answer your open mic. Made for the ValheimNet server.

CHANGELOG

0.6.3

  • Open mic works for everyone: the game captures your microphone itself (voice activity detection, no push-to-talk) and the server transcribes it, so villagers, bosses, trophies and monsters answer without any extra install
  • New config [OpenMic] BuiltInMic (on by default), BuiltInMicDevice and BuiltInMicSensitivity

0.6.2

  • Voice helper is no longer included in the package; the server now applies the full voice effects, so every player hears the finished boss and villager voices without installing anything

0.6.1

  • Voice helper is now bundled in the package (portable Python + numpy + ffmpeg); no download, no prompt
  • Starts hidden with the game, stops with it (including its mic capture); new config [VoiceHelper] Enabled (replaces AutoSetup)
  • Config files renamed to valheimnet.villagers.*.cfg (plugin IDs changed to match); old settings are copied over automatically on first launch
  • Shorter helper folder names so the install stays under the Windows path-length limit
  • Pack now includes OdinPlus Teleport Everything 3.0.9 (dependency)

0.6.0

  • One-download setup: the game asks once "Install voice effects?" and installs the voice helper itself, hidden, with a progress message
  • Helper auto-starts hidden with the game and stops when it closes; skipped if one is already running
  • New config [VoiceHelper] AutoSetup (Ask / Yes / No) and StopOnExit
  • A failed install never affects the game; normal voices keep working

0.5.9

  • Package text update only (same plugin build as 0.5.8)

0.5.8

  • Hildir quest bosses talk (Brenna, Geirrhafa, Zil & Thungr)
  • Trolls argue like a five-year-old; slow dumb troll voice
  • vv_spawn command
  • Mic no longer deafened during constant boss talk (MuteDuringPlayback, default off)
  • Bigger main menu badge placed on the Deep North logo
  • Greylings talk; head-point fix so greydwarf voices play
