VoidFax
The internet can fax your base. Share your printer link and real people send images and messages that physically print out of the fax machine in your game - with the full printing animation, as real photo props that persist in your save.
How it works
- Install the mod and launch VotV (a09k).
- The mod gives your game a unique printer code (like
VF-K3XQ9F) and a share link. Find them in the UE4SS log, or open the in-game console (~) and typevoidfax code. Easiest way to grab them: pause the game, alt-tab to the dev console window and copy the links straight from there. - Share the link (
voidfax.com/id/YOUR-CODE) with friends, chat, stream viewers - anyone. - They open it, type a message or attach an image, hit TRANSMIT.
- Your fax machine wakes up and prints it. That's it.
Faxes arrive while you play (the mod checks every 10 seconds by default -
voidfax interval <seconds> changes it). If the fax is
busy or you're in the menu, they queue up and print when possible.
Console commands

The feed site
- Everyone sees the queue/feed for your printer and whether it's online.
- Posting has a cooldown per person; names lock after the first fax.
- A profanity filter blocks the truly vile stuff (18+ language is allowed - this is Voices of the Void, not kindergarten).
- The site remembers your printer, and every fax shows who sent it.
- You moderate your own feed:
voidfax admingives you a private link with DELETE and BAN buttons for your printer only. Don't share that one. - Approval mode: on your private admin page, flip APPROVAL MODE on and nothing prints until you click APPROVE on it - submissions wait in a pending queue only you can see. Perfect for streaming: no surprises on screen. Toggle it off any time for instant printing.
Notes
- Built for VotV a09k with UE4SS/shimloader (installed automatically by your mod manager).
- Your game only talks to
voidfax.com- no accounts, no personal data; the mod generates a random printer identity on first run. - Printed faxes are normal physical photos: pin them up, burn them, trash them.
- Made by Flyingcoyote.
CHANGELOG
1.0.7
- Linux/Proton: the mod can now use the Linux system's own curl (via Wine's start /unix bridge) - no curl.exe needed in the prefix in most setups. Both transports are probed at startup and whichever works is used.
- Clearer log guidance when no network path is available.
1.0.6
- Linux/Proton (Steam Deck, Bazzite) compatibility: fixes the game closing instantly on launch. Under Wine the mod skips the Windows script host and uses direct networking; nothing spawns during game boot on any platform.
- If networking is unavailable the mod idles gracefully with a clear log message instead of failing.
1.0.5
- First launch prints a welcome fax with your printer code and share link - no more digging through logs.
- All links (including your private admin link) are saved to VoidFax_links.txt next to the game's exe.
1.0.4
- Version bump for release; contains the silent-networking fix below.
1.0.3
- No more flashing terminal windows: networking now runs through a single hidden background worker. Fixes the mod not working for players without the UE4SS console.
- Better diagnostics:
voidfax statusreports the network worker state, and the mod tells you if it can't reach the server.
1.0.2
- Poll interval is configurable in-game (voidfax interval <seconds>) and persists.
- Default check rate is now 10 seconds (was 20).
1.0.1
- New icon.
- Admin-page password option (voidfax password <word>).
- Docs polish.
1.0.0
- Initial release for VotV a09k.
- Unique printer code + shareable link (voidfax.com/id/CODE) per installation.
- Prints community images & messages through the game's own fax/photo pipeline (real animation, persistent photo props).
- Console commands: voidfax code / status / poll / test.
- Feed site with cooldowns, name-locking, moderation and share links.
- Per-printer moderation: private admin link (voidfax admin) with delete/ban, plus optional approval mode (nothing prints until you approve it).
- Optional admin-page password (voidfax password <word>) as a second lock on top of the admin link.
