GOATED. I plan to contribute to this project whil i have my summer vacation.

@Fed-cap I believe this mod conflicts with Bandits Week One, specifically during the party event. Once I turned off this mod and Voiced Radio and TVs, the errors no longer persisted. Something happens during the party code, specifically radiowavs

I'm not sure if this is another mod, but you'll hear the default radio voice and the modded voice in the radio (and possibly the TV. I'm not sure). do you know if there's any way to fix that?

No entendi nada de como instalar el mod

@FrenchGamer What do you need? do you have a radio .xml you want to add and voice to the game?

Fun fact: If you enable this mod alongside the Week One mod, you can actually hear the NPC's car radios as they pass you by. Neat little detail.

I need help trying to get this mod work

@Fed-Cap la verdad estaba intentando entender como funciona el tema de los mods que tienen que ver con las radios y tv¿s del juego ya que quiero hacer uno propio pero no entendi na.

@Dere tenes un .xml de radio que funcione?

amigo si fueras tan amable de ayudarme a entender como hacer un qliao mod con esto te lo agradecería:D

@M.R Johnson I'm really busy with other mods and can't make a detailed guide on how to set this up.

I recommend checking Voiced Radios and TVs or Survivors Radivo V3.7 to check how the files should be organized

(Voiced Radios and TVs I've done it with a very rough automation script, so I recommend Survivors Radivo V3.7 to understand how it works easier).

Great mod:) Can you make a more detailed video or guide for custom radio additions?

@Fed-cap i can't replicate it anymore so it must've been a temporary issue

@Wesch, I checked what you said and couldn't replicat the issue with True Music radio ( https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=2613146550 )

Talking with the community It seems that this issue shouldn't happen. so I didn't add the fix. If you could please send me more details about the problem you had, including:

List of Mods used
Steps to reproduce the issue

I'd be grateful.

Interesting. I'll check adding a prefix to the action (like BVoicerPerformToggleOnOff) to prevent an issue like this in the future. thanks for your advice, I'll test it later today

I fixed it by just changing the local name to a different one since they are using the same names
ISRadioAction.performToggleOnOff in both RadioWavs.lua and TMRadio.lua

@Wesch this error ocurred with a common radio, or when using the terminal added by True Music Radio ?

getting this error occasionally when turning on radio

seems to be a conflict with True Music Radio and Broadcast Voicer

Haha, haha... ^^;
Sorry, I was confused and thought both mods were yours ^^;
I thank you for your kindness <3

@SharleBu you should be able to use Voiced Radios and TVs though, and I think it should work correctly.

@SharleBu I do not support Emergency Alerted. Sadly I cannot fix this issue.

If I were to guess, the most likely culprit is that they accidentaly removed the Tags that add experience to your character in RadioData.xml (under the Radio Folder).

I do not know how they made Emergency Alerted and would not be able to update and fix it even if I figured out the issue.

Hello @Fed-cap and sorry for the delay. I've been busy but I finally took the time to test your mods to try to identify where the problem is coming from, and I have new clues:

1) Definitely not a conflict with other mods. The tests I did were only with Emergency Alerted and Broadcast Voicer activated.
2) The problem seems to be Emergency Alerted. As you proposed, I played a game only with Broadcast Voicer activated and on that occasion I was able to get experience from the TV. Definitely, when you activate Emergency Alerted, the error occurs that causes you to stop gaining experience from TV.

I don't actually know anything about the game code, but the error itself is easy to reproduce, ideally in a new sandbox game without zomboids.

I really love the idea of the mod, that's why I was interested in translating it and now, to fix this bug that definitely affects the gaming experience and forces me to disable it :(

Greetings! I hope all this is helpful.

You can activate Broadcast Voicer and not activate Voiced Radios and TVs (or any other mod that may require it). If you activate any mod that requires Broadcast Voicer, it will automatically activate Broadcast Voicer.

If you Deactivate Broadcast Voicer it will deactivate all mods dependent on Broadcast Vocier.

According to the tests I carried out, it is when activating this mod (or its dependency, I don't know exactly since they are activated together) that the problem occurs.
Anyway, to be exact: I cannot rule out that it is a conflict with another mod (I play with +300 active mods), but without a doubt it is when activating this that the bug is generated.
There is no green arrow, no message on the screen, nor does it increase experience if you check it in the skills menu. No matter how close or how loud the TV is, you simply don't get the experience of Life & Living programs.
I have not tested with the VHS, nor with the other mods disabled.
I'll do more testing and come back with what I discover.

@SharleBu is this mod what is causing issues or Voiced Radios and TVs?

This issue is with VHS or TV programs?

Do you get the stats (the green arrow over your head that says carpentry up)?

Also, I think that if there is static on the TV (like when it rains, and the text is cut off) the game does not give you the codes of the TV, and thus does not affect your moodlets and experience.

Hello, I would like to report a major bug with "Enmergency Alerted" or maybe this new requirement "Broadcast Voicer": I noticed that when starting new games, my character did not gain experience for watching Life & Living TV shows. After starting many new games by turning different mods on and off, I came to the conclusion that one of these mods is the one causing TV experience gain issues. According to me it is not a mod incompatibility.

I hope this report is useful. Unfortunately I will have to disable this ingenious mod until further notice :(

Greetings!

couldnt the folders have been included with the mod itself? or atleast you could have a short youtube video explaining how to do everything to get it to work

oh mate. you are amazing

@Alpha Gamer Here is the compatible version of SurvivorRadio:

https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3102060630

@Alpha Gamer good news! I got in touch with survivor radio creators an they allowed me to release a modified version of the mod. I'll work on it and try to release it later.

@Alpha Gamer Sadly it seems the creator didn't add support to the framework. I did manage to make them compatible, but since it is not my work, I don't want to release it without their permission.

I've contacted the creator of survivor radio to request permission to release the compatible version.

I just need the survivor radio and tv voices to work i don't want to add any custom stuff, so do i still need to do the things listed above or will it work if i just have both mods installed? because so far i only seem to have the voiced tv shows working properly

Nice!

I can confirm it works now

@Wesch I got good news. Turns out, they did pass the parameter of the device, so I do not have to search for it with coordinates.

I just released an update that should fix the issue.

Alright thanks

I did host a server and joined (as host). According to my testing, TVs works fine.

The issue comes from radios in particular. It seems, for some unkown reason, when on device text is called it is not passing the coordinates of the radio playing the sound in multiplayer (it does so in singleplayer, and with the TVs in multiplayer ¯\_(ツ)_/¯). This is fundamental to finding the radio and knowing which device is playing the sound, it's volume, location, etc.

I will have to take a look into the java code, but I don't really want to have to edit the java, since it is risky, may break something, and every person that joins the server will have to install the classes (which is not so plug and play).

I can make a patch so it doesn't show the errors, but we will have to pray to the devs essentially for them to fix this issue.

Just so you know, This week I have college exams, so I won't be able to do much coding, but I'll check what is going on later

Do you use the same modlist in the singleplayer?

I want to also clarify that not all programs are yet voiced, the mod is still work in progress.

The voiced programs are:

TV:

Life and Living
Triple-N

Radio:

LBMW
KnoxTalk Radio
Automated Emergency Broadcast system.

In the video, you where listening to a program which currently isn't voiced (NNR Network), But I assume you tested with multiple programs, and it didn't work.

This is my modlist: https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3036012020

And i made a video of the bug for further detail: https://youtu.be/GmTDkjspV0M

I will look into this further, but this seems extremely unusual.

This framework was made based on survivor radio (with permission from one of their creators).

It seems that

sq:getObjects()

Is returning an empty table, which shouldn't happen, it should send the objects in the square, which should contain the device playing the audio (a radio, or tv, or car, etc).
(I might need to check for this so this error doesn't happen).

In theory, Survivor Radio should have this same issue in multiplayer

Could you tell me a list of which mods you are using?

Are you placing radios or TVs as items instead of placing them on the world? (they should look smaller than usual, you can control with extreme precision their location and rotation).

Nope its not even compatible i tried it before.
this mod together with voiced radio and tvs works just fine in singleplayer, but this doesn't work in multiplayer

Are you using this mod with Survivors Radio Mod?

Getting this error in mutliplayer with this mod everytime the radio sends a message no voices no sounds

@rbalsek I don't speak korean, and the translator seems to be crap.

This is a framework mod. If you want Voiced Radios and TVs, go to Voiced Radios and TVs mod.

This mod is for people who want to add custom radios, and for them to be voiced (useful if you want to make custom scenarios, add music, etc).

@rbalsek 이것은 프레임워크 모드입니다. 음성 라디오 및 TV를 원할 경우 음성 라디오 및 TV 모드로 이동하세요. (Voiced Radios and TVs)

이 모드는 맞춤형 시나리오나 음성도 포함된 라디오 프로그램을 만들고 싶어하는 사람들을 위한 모드입니다.

구독하는것 만으로는 활성화 되지 않나요? 뭔가 폴더를 새로 만들어서 작업을 따로 해야 합니까?

@psalm69er I'm working on it, there is a list of voiced programs in voiced Radios and TVs description

Love this mod, should be in basegame. PZ is a game that utilizes sound, but they haven't vocalised the TV and Radio. I don't know if this intentional, but some channels/programs still don't have audio? I hope you can fill in the rest.

@BrTz Currently, most updates I launched for this framework mod where either fixes, or required for improvements in Voiced Radios and TVs mod.

I haven't released many tools to facilitate the implementation of this mod, so if you want the best results, You'll probably have to do them manually.

If you want my mod to be compatible with yours, you should not name your files the same as mine, so you should just use VRTVs as a reference and not copy the file names because the files will be overwritten, and become incompatible.

For tools, I'll probably make a Python script, so you'll have to use python. Steam won't allow me to send .exe files.

My intention is to make it so that you just add 2 files per broadcast: an audio file and a times file.
It will then iterate through the files and set everything else appropriately.

If you want, contact me on discord by joining on the VRTVs discord group and send me a message in private, and I'll see how can I help you.
