[QUOTE=Wormy;30260834]It is possible to use 2 softwares called: "Foobar 2000" and "Virtual Audio Cabel". I have not yet tried this method, but 1 guy in a trade server used these softwares and he could hear the in-game sound in TF2 even when he was mic-spamming the sound file.[/QUOTE]
VAC was useless, i used it while playing DoTA and voice chatting on skype(Stereo ear-rape). Haven't tried Foobar 2000 though.
I hate to ask, but. Does this work in Garrysmod?
No offense but from what Im seeing it seems very complicated to get it to work properly. I dont have stereo mix so I have to update my drivers?
I really like the idea behind this program and the makers and the users using it. But I rather just stick with HLDJ until maybe TF2DJ can be a little more simpler to install.
[QUOTE=MiKaXsUs;30260306]Fuck, HLDJ went out of business.[/QUOTE]A few people are still using it and the old codec on some servers. It's not like my program just beat it to death, lol.
[QUOTE=TheJoey;30260569]I've got no stereo mix at all. So I guess I'm out of luck.[/QUOTE]I'll make a short tutorial on how you can create a fake Stereo Mix device using VAC soon.
[QUOTE=TehBlueOne;30260708]If I have voice programs like Skype running while I micspam will it cut out the sound from there too?[/QUOTE]The sounds from other programs like Skype will be included as well. Remember that Stereo Mix is what you hear, at least from the standard speaker. Luckily, in the Skype settings, you can change input and output, seperate from Steam, so that you can e.g. have the Skype convo in your headphones, if you have any.

Yes, you should update your drivers. You always should.
I understand that it may be a bit complicated. That's the consequence. I've tried to simplify the instructions as much as I could.
Looks great, two questions before I'll download: (Don't throw things at me if this has been asked 10 times before)
- So basically there are two modes: One would be low quality micspam but it won't mute the in-game sounds, and the other will but the spam is HQ. Is that correct?
- Does everyone else in the server hear it as HQ micspam? If yes, what happens on servers like the FP server where SILK was turned off so people could still micspam?
Wormy, I can handle this.

1. Correct, plus that you can use TF2DJ to micspam on any server. To date, the SILK codec hasn't made any apparent improvement in audio quality. Maybe Valve will fix this quality issue one day.
2. They don't hear it in the same quality as you. They hear it in the usual 11025hz quality. Again, SILK failing to live up to its promise. You can still micspam with TF2DJ on servers that enable the old codec.

XMplay, virtual audio [b]Cable[/b], huge ass playlist of chiptunes, windowed mode, saigns.de, get banned for the 12th time this year.
I really hated windowed mode. -.-
Anyway...
TF2DJ is now at v1.053, an update shortly after v1.046. This is mostly a stability/speed improvement update. Grab it from Flagged Games, and tell all your friends and family, too!
[b]Added:[/b]
- User can now change the program priority of TF2DJ from within the HUD. It can be Automatic, Low, Normal, or High. Automatic will automatically adjust priority and FPS to give you the least jerky playback and most responsive HUD while consuming the least CPU. If you'd like to manually adjust the priority, then you can use Low, Normal, and High.
[b]Changed:[/b]
- Updated the README.
- You can no longer switch micspam or change volume while the HUD is invisible.
[b]Fixed:[/b]
- Stopped TF2DJ from doing some unnecessary things while the window is invisible.
- Changed the way that the volume bar is drawn yet again.

Click Edit again.
I'm in the Virtual Audio Cable camp. Running VAC, Foobar and TF2 in noborder windowed mode is much better than any other way of micspamming, and you don't need to mess with the music files when you can just adjust the equalizer.
[QUOTE=raBBish;30278788]Click Edit again.[/QUOTE]Okay, thanks.

I saw this in the HLDJ forums months ago.
Back to spamming....
Sorry to say that, but I'm always playing on the same server with SILK disabled and I feel kinda lost without in-game sounds, so for me there's no point in downloading this since I'm so used to HLDJ's ui.
Hope you understand that, you did a great job at programming this and this sure is hugely helpful if you want to spam on servers with SILK enabled.

Any plans to make this works with xp?
[QUOTE==DarkStar=;30284190]Any plans to make this works with xp?[/QUOTE]For now, I can't. Maybe in a few months I can, since there are some guys working on a program that will allow me to do this. Sorry.
I tried to update my drivers but windows says that they are up to date
I managed to get this working just fine on my X-Fi which has no 'What U Hear' or 'Stereo Mix' options typically available (running windows XP aswell). If anyone cares, the trick is to simply put your soundcard into 'Audio Creation Mode' using the creative console launcher, and set the audio creation control panel's 'recording' device to 'What U Hear'. Doing that made TF2DJ work perfectly... No dicking around with Virtual Audio Cable or anything like that.
I know that was not the most detailed description, but it's fairly straight-forward once you start tinkering around. So long as you have the necessary Creative control panel software installed, you're good to go.

Hang on, what's not working in XP? I got it working perfectly fine last night as per my post above...
Oh, ok. I never tested it on XP.
I'll try your creative audio solution thing. Does it work with e.g. High Definition Audio cards?
would it be possible in the future to release a version or setting that doesn't mute in game sound?
If anything, this would be better as some Winamp plugin that creates a virtual audio device for TF2 to read from
[QUOTE=Hamsterjuice;30302637]would it be possible in the future to release a version or setting that doesn't mute in game sound?[/QUOTE]Most likely not. I can't program TF2DJ to forward audio to a different device.
[QUOTE=Max of S2D;30302694]If anything, this would be better as some Winamp plugin that creates a virtual audio device for TF2 to read from[/QUOTE]I disagree. I don't want to play in widowed mode just to switch micspam. Besides, I can't make TF2DJ forward audio to a different device.
Boobs.
[QUOTE=Fede-lasse;30302305]Oh, ok. I never tested it on XP.

Creative's software only works with Creative's cards, unfortunately. So unless you're running an X-Fi or some Asus equivalent (like a Xonar perhaps), you won't really be able to do anything with it.
That being said, I have had a few issues with it. It works perfectly the first time I play some sounds, but then after the second or third time, it starts acting wierd... Like it'll just silence everything, show the mic chat icon, but not play any sound or transmit anything, but then when I stop playing it the sound will start playing but it won't be trying to transmit or anything.
It's really strange. I'm going to have to play with it some more to see if I can work out what the go is. But it does work!
@Sobek
Alright. Hope you'll work it out. I'm going to make a tutorial on creating a fake Stereo Mix device soon (probably in a few days).
Also, YEEET another small update has been pushed out, which is v1.056. Just replace the EXE if you'd like to keep your settings. Here's what's changed:
[B]Fixed:[/B]
- HUD now correctly redraws after making it visible.
- Adjusted the priority to be Low when no micspam is playing and the HUD is invisible.
If I select low quality, does these mean I hear in-game sounds and mic-spam will sound just as it should, or did I misunderstand somewhere?
[QUOTE=Agent Fedora;30309294]If I select low quality, does these mean I hear in-game sounds and mic-spam will sound just as it should, or did I misunderstand somewhere?[/QUOTE]If you by low quality mean HLDJ, then yes, you'll be able to hear the in-game sounds, although with the old codec.

I disagree. I don't want to play in widowed mode just to switch micspam. Besides, I can't make TF2DJ forward audio to a different device.

I saw you were using windowed mode in your video, do you know it's much better if you use -windowed -noborder ?
Ok which should I update the drivers for?
-The 4x "High Definition Audio device"
-Sigma Tel High Definition Audio CODEC
- or ViXs PureTV-U 4899?
[QUOTE=Max of S2D;30310849]I saw you were using windowed mode in your video, do you know it's much better if you use -windowed -noborder ?[/QUOTE]If you tried the Fullscreen feature, you'd notice that TF2DJ already did this since v1.000, silly.

Ok, I tried setting it up with stereo mix.
My speakers started to kill themselves.
What are your tips using this program on widows xp?
It seems to make a huge lag and even crash steam so badly i needet to povershut it.
