Shut Yer Trap - Mute NPCs Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 37.1

by: remosito [More]

Some of the NPC say/yells started to annoy me. So I tried a couple addons. But they shut up most NPCs and the game started to feel empty to me.

So instead this Addon keeps track of the last 20 NPC yell/say (Struga,...) and allows you to mute selected dialogues by an NPC. Or all their Voice Overs.

This only works for NPC yell/say. Not for Quest Giver Interface Voice Over.

Requires Lib-AddonMenu-2.0

Disclaimers:
- I have not tested this with 100s of muted dialogues/NPCs so no guarantee about performance in this case. Would be suprised though if it were an issue.
- In the background this works by setting the volume of the VoiceOver audio channel to 0 for a calculated duration based on dialogue length. If another NPC dialogue starts or is ongoing during this period. It will be muted too. If my formula calculation gives to short a duration. The end of the muted conversation would be heard again.

37.1
- minor fix
- switch to better event for vo volume reset

37.0
- API bump
- VO Audio level sometimes staying at 0 hopefully fixed for good

36.0
- multiple fixes

35.9
- found and fixed rare-ish nil error

35.7
- New Feature: Unmute previously muted NPC/Dialogue

35.5
- should now be compatible with pchat, rchat

35.4
- left debug printout in 35.3..sorry guys and gals

35.3
- require min version for libaddonmenu (thanks baertram)
- muted chatter is now suppressed in chat too

35.2
- Hint to edit saved vars file to unmute or see list of muted dialogues
- Now supresses subtitles in addition to audio

35.1
- fixed bug where muting two NPCs in close succession resulted in VO volume being set to 0 permanently

35.0
- Initial Version for U35

Oh god how nice it is to not have to hear "Here ye card sharks and card collectors" ever again, or Stuga the orc. I got an error with the Hooded Figure. Can you look into this?

Howdie,

apologies. Was busy with U36 and new antiquity location and some changes to displayleads. Never noticed your previous post...

Somebody had that could not create dropdown error. But never got back with if or how it got fixed.

I am not getting it. So must be something local on your end. Probably interactions with other addons.

some of the errors you posted are from advancedfilters. My Addon is not using that. Nor is libaddonmenu.
So those errors are not from my Addon.

Maybe they are the cause of bad interaction that then cause the LAM2 (libaddonmenu) error?

Try getting that one fixed first?

One previous case with shutyertrap error was some other addon had their own libaddonmenu version that got loaded instead of the official one. Maybe check for that.

Had a look at NPCMuter. And at first sight it looks like some NPCs use an additional voice channel that needs to be muted... Thanks a bunch for the hint. will have a more detailed look at it and hopefully a got at it once U36 displayleads work is done. Todays patch hopefully fixes the remaining lead drops...

cheers

Afterwards, I couldn't properly select the NPCs from the dropdown menu to mute. I would select one, and it would mute a totally different one in the list. Bizarre. After reloading, the dropdown menu for removing things I've muted had disappeared. Seems I'd have to log out and back in to get Shut Yer Trap to reset its settings menu. Perhaps some chat commands could be implemented? To allow us to mute whoever we have under our cursor? Like /fullmute or /selectivemute or /mutenpc or /mutedialogue and of course the /unmutenpc and /unmutedialogue And as far as the NPCs that Shut Yer Trap can't seem to mute... I'm pretty certain the mod NPCMuter could mute them. So you might want to look at the coding for that addon? (Still works great for me. I've just had it disabled lately to try out Shut Yer Trap.) Because I would love to mute Concordia Mercius.

Howdie,

zos uses two different kinds of npc voice mechanisms.

One my addon can catch and mute. The other not.

Never tested those npcs you mentioned.

The one that works as well puts the dialogue in chat if option is set in chat options. As well as the npc subtitles if option is enabled in audio settings..

easiest way to check which type an npc dialogue is...

cheers

I tried just adding them to the savedvariables but they still talk.

libaddonmenu-2.0

can you try disabling ArchPLG and see if error persists?

Hi Marcus,

thanks for posting your saved variables content. I added them to mine and it all works for me. so I am afraid it might be something on your end. Unless it's how I handle savedvars for more than one account. I only have one.

Try:
- Delete first account parts from your savedvars file. Try the second account ingame.(check if its multiaccount that I messed up)
- Deinstalling, reinstalling the addon.
- Delete/Move the saved variables file
- Disable other Addons one by one (or in chunks) to track down interference

Yes. This is how it works: It temporarily sets voiceover dialogue volume to 0 for a length that is guesstimated based on the dialogue. To be more precise it sets dialogue volume to 0. Sets a timer for the lenght. Upon expiration of that timer it sets volume back to what it was before. (which is why if two dialogues are happening at the same time. One you want to mute. The other not. both will be muted. the one you dont want to only for a part of its duration if that one is longer....)

There is no other way I know of unfortunately. ZOS does not provide a way to suppress specific dialogues.

I think I finally found out why very rarely the volume gets stuck at 0. As happened to you:

muted dialogue happens. volume is set to 0. timer to unmute is starting. But before it can fire and volume be set back to previous value. game crashes or player logs out/quits....

have a couple ideas how to fix this.

The only way for me to remove anyone from being Muted would be to edit the settings file - or just delete it altogether. Also - Does it work by lowering the Dialog Volume? Because I've been trying to talk to other NPC's, and getting nothing. Found out yesterday that my Dialog Volume is down at zero - and I didn't put it there. Guess I'll try removing it and reinstalling - can't hurt. If that doesn't fix it, it's probably one of my older addons messing with something.

Re: Re: Could not create dropdown

No clue where Saved Variables were, so I hacked your code and found out about ZO_SavedVars in the OnAddOnLoaded event, searched online, and found it. Here it is, though I *****'s out the account names (I checked, they were fine):

Code:

SYTVars =
{
    ["NA Megaserver"] = 
    {
        ["@*****"] = 
        {
            ["$AccountWide"] = 
            {
                ["version"] = 1,
                ["Muted"] = 
                {
                    ["Sorinne Gaerard^F"] = 
                    {
                        ["#@ALL@#"] = true,
                    },
                },
            },
        },
        ["@*****"] = 
        {
            ["$AccountWide"] = 
            {
                ["version"] = 1,
                ["Muted"] = 
                {
                    ["Sorinne Gaerard^F"] = 
                    {
                        ["#@ALL@#"] = true,
                    },
                    ["Florentia Candidius^F"] = 
                    {
                        ["#@ALL@#"] = true,
                    },
                    ["Stuga^F"] = 
                    {
                        ["#@ALL@#"] = true,
                    },
                },
            },
        },
    },
}

That is very strange...never happened to me.. makes it hard to debug...

does the problem persist after a /reloadui? after restarting and relogging eso?

could you post your shutyertrap saved variables file?

the Chatterings buttons being greyed out after you muted all existing chatterings is normal by the way. It is only active when you have somebody or something to mute...

the unmute ones being greyed out when you have muted things is definitely not though. doubt it^s variable name typo. it would never work...might have to do with npc names and dialogues though.
hence the need for your saved vars file...

thanks a lot in advance

When I got to another verbose NPC, I checked, and the first dialog (Chatterings) was working again, but the Unmute section is still all grayed out, even after I added a third NPC one. Guessing the list isn't parsing correctly into the dropdown - maybe a variable name typo? Pretty sure anything else would have given an error dialog.
