MicSnitch

Mic Snitch

Snitches on whoever is talking. Shows the nicknames of every player currently

transmitting voice, right on your screen — so the soundboard spammer on the loading

screen has nowhere to hide.

A working replacement for the old, deprecated See_who_is_talking mod, which stopped

showing names in current R.E.P.O. builds.

What you see

• A list of currently-talking players in the upper-right corner.
• Loud / shouting players — bold red, stay visible for 3 seconds. A sudden

shout always pops out, even when 10 other people are also on the mic.

• Normal speech — soft yellow, fades after ~0.7s.
• Quiet background noise is filtered out by amplitude — open-mic players who are

just breathing into the headset don't pollute the list.

• Sorted with loud people on top.

Hotkey

• F8 — toggle the overlay on/off. When hidden, a faint [F8] Mic Snitch hint

stays in the corner so you never forget the toggle.

Why

In R.E.P.O. voice is proximity-based in a level, but global on loading screens

and in the lobby — that's where someone always blasts a soundboard and you have no

idea who. The old mod hooked the per-player Speaker component to find out.

Problem: when other players run cosmetic mods (MoreHead & co.), their

SetupCosmeticsModdedRPC fails, the Speaker never gets created, and the old mod

sees nothing.

How it's fixed

Mic Snitch hooks RemoteVoiceLink.OnDecodedFrameFloatAction — the per-frame decoded

audio callback at the VoiceClient level, before the player init / Speaker step.

It fires for every remote voice that has a stream, including not-inited players.

From the decoded float samples it computes the peak amplitude, classifies the speaker

(quiet / normal / loud) and resolves the nickname through

PhotonNetwork.CurrentRoom.GetPlayer(actorNumber).NickName, which keeps working even

when a player's local object is broken by RPC errors.

Local mic state is read directly from LocalVoice.IsCurrentlyTransmitting, so your

own name shows when you talk too — works even alone in a lobby for testing.

Everything is resolved via reflection — if a future game patch renames a type, the

mod logs a warning and degrades gracefully instead of crashing.

Install

Use a mod manager (r2modman app) — it handles the BepInExPack

dependency. Manual install: drop MicSnitch.dll into BepInEx/plugins.
