Accessibility Captions

Description
Helps those with hearing loss enjoy a better game experience.

Directional indicators
Each caption has two directional indicators: red and green.

  • In front: Both red and green indicators show
  • Behind: No colored indicators show
  • Right: Green indicator shows
  • Left: Red indicator shows

Configuration
All captions are disabled by default. You need to enable captions from the mod options menu.

To reposition the widget, press Enter to open the chat, and drag the white square.

Other mod settings:
  • Max Hearing Distance: Both red and green indicators show
  • Caption Font Size: No colored indicators show
  • Widget Direction: The direction in which the captions appear from the white anchor.


The player can set the distance at which the accessibility captions appear based on their hearing loss (max: 50), and can move the captions around on their interface based on personal preference (by hitting enter and clicking and dragging the white box).

These captions are displayed for sounds that play in-game only (so will not play if the sound does not play).

Great mod! I sometimes struggle with noise-induced hearing loss, so this might help me a bit. Altho i would like to see the mod being able to be centered, having it grow left or right side just looks plain horrible when trying to centre (I thank my OCD for that). Anyway thanks for the mod :steamhappy:

Can you please apply this for sanction? This is something me and a lot of people would be thankful for

Any way we can get a way to change the default position of the widget like how UI tweaks has? Having to reposition the widget out of the center of the screen everytime you boot up the game because of visibility issues is annoying.

Like Ghuldarkar, the argument that it'd be advantage to hearing players is really joke. This game should be having accessibility options from the beginning, and therefore, it'll give deaf people a reason to at least have fun to play this game. Just please, for deaf people's sake including mine, sanction this, Fatshark. Or at least, add the god damn accessibility option in next DLC/hotfix update.

This should have been in the game since day 1. What a joke.

The argument that this would be an advantage to hearing players is absurd. Visual reaction time, especially to things that are on the side and colour coded or similar is much higher than aural reaction time. If you can hear but need this to be able to react to different things you are functionally deaf anyway in this specific issue. Sanction this, Fatshark!

I'm deaf and play with sound, my friend is hearing and his sound card is broken - between us, we have sod all warning in every regard, haha. I realise Devs might be dubious about the "advantage" here - but as d/Deaf gamer, for the love of Grimnir, sanction this.

I don't use this mod, but I noticed some players seem oblivious to events happening right behind them, so I'm giving you a thumb up
