About this mod

Disables the voice volume dynamically only while geralt is speaking, effectively muting all of geralt's voice in the game.

Permissions and credits
Purpose
This mod sets the game voice volume to 0 only while the player is speaking, effectively muting all of geralt's voice in the game. The purpose of this mod is to avoid having a male player voice, which was the biggest immersion-breaking problem I had when playing the game as a custom female character. 

This makes you a silent protagonist, like in the good old days of roleplaying-games, so use your imagination and do you own voice-acting in your head :)



Installation v1.1
1. Extract the folders "bin" and "Mods" into your "The Witcher 3" root folder (merging the contents with existing folders).
2. Add the following lines to the top of your user.settings file (found in
<user>\Documents\The Witcher 3):


[modMuteGeralt]
ToggleMute=true

3. Run Script Merger if you have any other mods that might edit player.ws.
4. (Obviously enable voice volume in the game menu settings if you previously disabled it.)

Notes
-Special thanks goes to ParKan11 for creating the Geralt Doppler mod (updated version) which allows you to play as your own custom character (this allows me to play W3 for the first time, since I generally only play roleplaying-games where you can make your own character :P)
-A technical limitation is that all simultaneous voices get muted when geralt speaks, but nothing of importance ever seems to be said at the same time as geralt is speaking anyway, so in practice this doesn't seem to be a problem.
-Made for game version 1.31.
