Captionman

Captionman adds real-time closed captions for game sounds in R.E.P.O. making the game more accessible for players who are deaf and hard of hearing.

What It Does

Never miss an important sound again! Captionman shows captions for:

Enemy sounds
Item sounds
Environmental sounds
Game event sounds

Customization

To ajust the caption settings, you can use MenuLib+REPOConfig or edit the config file directly at BepInEx/config/BatteryDie.Captionman.cfg to customize:

Setting	Default	What It Does
EnableCaptionsUI	On	Master toggle for caption rendering across menus, loading, lobby, and gameplay
GameAudioCaptions	On	Enable closed captions for game audio
GameAudioRepeatCooldownSeconds	2.0	Prevent the same game-audio caption from appearing too often
GameAudioCaptionFile	captionsEN.csv	Set caption CSV filename to load (falls back to captionsEN.csv if missing)
BackgroundOpacity	0.7	Make caption background darker or lighter (0.0 = invisible, 1.0 = solid)
TextSize	16.0	Make text bigger or smaller (10-25)
DisableTextColour	Off	Disable custom text colour tags
TextLeftAlign	Off	Align caption text to the left instead of centered
HorizontalPosition	0.0	Horizontal position offset of the caption panel (-270.0 to 260.0)
VerticalPosition	50.0	Vertical position offset of the caption panel (0.0 to 350.0)
EnableDebug	Off	Enable debug logging for troubleshooting

Caption files are packaged flat beside the DLL and loaded by the GameAudioCaptionFile filename config.
