El superviviente no responde la radio del puente en la parroquia

Been searching for a French localization fix for days my nig

Turned out it was The Last Stand update being fucking ass

You're a saviour mate

cheers, happy zombie killing.

Not a problem. I've also fixed yet another bug that somehow slipped past me. I've just posted the update. Have fun!

Hm, could be that i used a different kind of mod talker that does just like that. I've subscribed to this talker now, and it seems to not do the infamous bug. Thanks for the reply though, 'preciated.

Hmm... Looking at it now, there is another bug that ended up slipping past me. I'll fix it as soon as I can.

@Sensuka, it appears that this should already be fixed. Is it currently not the case?

Do you plan on fixing a bug about Francis' using Bill's friendly fire voice lines when Francis hurts Bill? I really want to use this and favorite it since it contains lost calls to make the game more immersive and atmospheric.

Great mod by the way, hope to see more future updates!

i guess it does work with a vocalizer but make it so that when you do swear it does swear instead of Argh

for some reason this mod skips the parish radio conversation on the bridge when you press e on the radio and talk to rescue 7 and papa gator

thanks for this upload

Hmm, okay, but I assure you - it's nothing i've done.

In the interest of clarity, here's the facts: On vanilla L4D2 OR modded L4D2 - on my account or a new account - on this PC or a different PC - without THIS add-on - I never hear lost calls under ANY conditions, ever. They simply don't occur; they are not (any longer) a part of the game - only a vague memory, years old. With this add-on I hear them (when solo) almost immediately on map start (and they trigger, recur and vary as expected thereafter) just like old times.

Note: The criteria name is "NumberOfTeamAlive". The returned value MUST be greater than 1.

The current talker scripts had added a criteria where the survivor cannot be the only one alive on their team regardless of whether the other teammates are either dead or never present.

This is probably why the automatic Lost Calls are not firing in cases like yours. Other instance includes a 50 second cooldown on a successful fire, a context being applied, usually on Finale Start or even after contacting someone for the finale, and even Spotting the rescue vehicle (escape music starts), should there be a non-finale of sorts.

Other than that, Lost Calls will automatically fire should the closest survivor from you be farther than 3000 units away. (This has not changed since the update)

Automatic. I am of the hapless impression that brand-new 2023 L4D2 has no automatic 'lost calls' when solo (or when reduced to solo) in any mode. And I suspect it's a TLS update thing simply because that was my hunch and THIS add-on fixed it.

If you know why I have no automatic lost calls WITHOUT this addon please let me know, as I do enjoy the more meaty automatic campaign banter and triggers of the TLS update. But I'm doing a solo and duo rebalance overhaul and so for immersion and flavour the lost calls are a must.

Actually - and forgive me - but if you could make a post-TLS add-on that simply 'restores' automatic lost calls for all survivors i'd gladly use that instead. That might actually be a thing that needs fixing that noobs don't know about and that vets didn't care for (and thus escaped notice?).

That's my hunch anyway.

Are they the automatic or manual calls?

I haven't played in years until recently and started getting into modding single and solo player mutations and it's there that I noticed the complete absence of any lost calls. I installed unmodded L4D2 on a different PC and alternate steam account trying to work out what was causing the issue and they were absent there too (playing Last Man Standing vanilla).

Bewildered after lots of fruitless troubleshooting, I wondered if it was a Last Stand thing, found this mod and BAM; instantly fixed.

Doesn't seem like a 'just a me' thing considering I bought the game on a new account to test it and had the same results. Anyway, this solved it and I'm chuffed.

In what ways were they broken before?

This is the only way I know of to restore a survivor's "lost calls" when playing solo or when the rest of the team has been wiped. For that alone, I thank you.

Okay, thanks for the info.

Pre-talker is pre-tls. with bugfixes. TrueTalkerDS is post-tls, with compatibility with custom campaigns (refer to item discussions), and stops almost all custom, manual, voc inputs.

What's the difference between true talker and pre talker?

Nope, it doesn’t. Not unless the server itself has this addon. And I think that’s the problem with user expectations, too.

Works on dedicated servers ?

Let's go!!! The chopper radio in No Mercy Chapter 5 isn't silent anymore

Got the fix out. Finally.

Perfect! Now it works properly without crashing. Thanks for your help :)

To anyone who can't find the line I'll leave a screenshot below (remove the "-"):
h-ttps://imgur(dot)com/a/fXpDiER
It is marked with a blue dot

Found it. I've already modified it. Let me test it to see if it works

It’s the very top of the first image. All the way in the top left corner. Line 50

Nope, I still can't find it. I must be blind. Anyway I took screenshots of the whole block. I'll post it here so maybe you can see what I could not:
h-t-t-p-s://imgur(dot)com/a/9bfQia2
If you can find it, tell me which line is and I'll modify it and post a screenshot with the part to edit

When you find it, please have an imgur link in the discussion’s comments so that people know exactly what to look for?

There was one in one block in relation to the No Mercy helicopter pilot. It’s all the way to the left

Are you sure that's the problem? I'm looking it and it seems that all commented out lines have two "/". Anyway I'll look more carefully to see if I'm missing something

Okay, i found the problem just before my screen started acting up again. Here’s what to do: search up “Todd” in finales_dlc2 in that one block, there’s commented out lines with one “/“ simply add another one to fix it.

No worries. If you can fix it that's great. If not, you can tell me what to do and I'll fix it myself. Thanks for the quick answer :)

Wait, hang on. My pc seems to be cooperating again, I’ll fix this as soon as I can, if I can

Oh crap. I must have made a mistake there. Unfortunately, I can’t fix it due to my pc screen being finnicky. But I can tell you how to fix it

Since the new update I can't play any campaign because while it's loading it crashes back to desktop with an engine error:

CResponseSystem::LoadFromBuffer: Unknown entry type

expecting "response", "criterion", "enmueration" or "rules" in file scripts/talker/finales_dlc2.txt(offset:4222)

You seem to confuse custom radial menus (vocalizers) with talker scripts. This isn’t a keybound thing. This is passive for your locally hosted sessions.

How do I even use this, like what key am I supposed to press?

wait where you the one from the video from the vocalize caption

It is script file, so it does not trigger VAC ban, so feel free to use it! But it is only available on local server.

Hey, Does this work even with vac?

I’m still here. I was just taking a break from L4D2 to prevent burnout. I’ve been working on the TLS Talker for a long time, so I figured I needed the time off.

Any bug fixes? I was waiting for author's fixes and no response for almost 3 month. Is this mod dead?

Nice mod, but when I start using this mod the News Chopper 5 is muted on No Mercy finale

Talkers are server-sided. They will not work if you are not the host of a local server, or if a server you are joining does not have this. (It also means that it does not matter whether or not you have this when joining a non-local server)

SHould I add this to my pak01_dir if I want this to work in versus?

They definetly messed up the vocalizer. A LOT of lines that USED to work before the update, don't anymore. And i meant A LOT
