RO1ChatterMut (rev. 68) [Not White-Listed]
This mutator is currently being tested on the RGN custom map server.
Slappy Cromwell and I worked together to make a mutator out of Slappy's RO1ChatterMod package.
Putting his sound package in a mutator jacket has the following advantages:
- Players don't need to manually replace the stock RO2 audio files. Instead they can download the RO1 audio cues from the RO2 Steam Workshop by subscribing to this mutator package.
- The stock RO2 files will never be overwritten by this mutator.
- A new RO2 update will not replace the RO1 audio files.
- A verify game cache will not overwrite the RO1 audio files.
- The player can choose by himself if he want to hear the RO1 sounds or the RO2 sounds. Default the mutator uses the RO2 audio cues, though he can switch to the RO1 audio cues (and back again) at any time by entering a console command or by using the RO2 workshop mutator menu.
Insights:
The mutator is instanced on the server, but it will not do much there. All essential code will be executed on the clients. The only thing the server side code does is propagating the client console commands to the right client. And telling the client when it should start swapping the audio cue files.

Something new is that this mutator will add settings to the web-admin. Here is a picture of the screen:
Spoiler!
Those settings can also be found in the RORO1ChatterMut.ini file on your server.
