Banjo-Chatooie

Puts your Twitch chat into Banjo-Kazooie: Recompiled.

Messages scroll in a small panel in the corner of the screen. If you want, a

character from the game also reads them aloud in one of Banjo-Kazooie's own text

boxes, with that character's portrait and their voice — Bottles, Mumbo, Grunty,

Klungo, the Jinjos. Chat picks who speaks.

The connection is anonymous and read-only. The mod never asks for a Twitch

account, a password or a token, and it cannot send messages or join more than the

one channel you name. (Channel points are optional and ask for permission

separately.)

Installing

Copy both of these into your mods folder, which is

~/.config/BanjoRecompiled/mods on Linux:

• banjo_chatooie.nrm
• banjo_chatooie_native.so

They have to sit next to each other. The mod will not load if the second file is

missing, and putting it anywhere else has no effect.

Then enable the mod in the game's mod menu.

Getting chat on screen

Open the mod's options and type your channel name into Twitch Channel, with

no #. That is the only required setting. Chat appears within a couple of

seconds, and you can change the channel while playing without restarting.

The panel shows each chatter's name in their own Twitch colour. You can move it to

any corner and change its width, how many lines it keeps, its text size and how

solid its background is. Show Chat Overlay turns it off completely, which is

what you want if you would rather chat only appeared through the game's text

boxes.

Making characters talk

Characters Speak On decides what makes a character read a message out loud:!say command is the default and works on any channel. Someone types!say hello everyone in chat and a character says it. Who Can Use!say can

narrow that to you and your moderators if chat gets carried away.

Channel point reward uses a proper channel points redemption. It needs Twitch

Affiliate and a small script running alongside the game, described in

helper/README.md. Reward Name sets what the reward is called on your channel,

and changing it there renames it on Twitch while you play.

Highlight My Message uses the built-in reward of that name. Also Affiliate only.

Every message makes every single line of chat get spoken. Chaotic, but it is the

fastest way to see whether everything works.

When the game wants to talk

Story dialogue always wins. Walk up to a molehill or an NPC while a chat box is on

screen and the chat box gets out of the way, so you never have to wait for chat to

finish before the game can talk to you. The interrupted message is spoken

afterwards rather than thrown away.

Nothing is spoken during a cutscene, or across a map transition. Messages that

arrive then wait their turn.

Choosing who speaks

Start the message with a name and a colon.!say mumbo: hello banjo comes out of

Mumbo, in Mumbo's voice. Anything without a recognised name falls back to the

Default Character setting.

Every name chat can use, all case-insensitive:
