8. Advanced Feature Integration
To | Read |
Realize the range voice effect in voice chat (similar to "Team Only" and "Everyone" audio modes in PUBG) | |
Hear a stereo voice with a sense of direction from characters when characters move. The voice also gets weaker as the distance from the source increases, making the game voice more immersive. | |
Implement room member management, mic-on/off, and muting. For example, the team leader wants to mute other players in the room, or the game host wants audience members to mic on. | |
Use GME to play the accompaniment in the voice chat room, adjust the EQ of the accompaniment, and play back local sound effects. | |
Perform voice changing during voice chat. Players can change their tone to that of a middle-aged man, little girl, etc. | |
Make yourself heard only by members in your current team and hear the voices of other stranger players in the matched team in the voice chat room. |
