Using Different Models
- vosk-model-small-en-us-0.15 (Default) (~40MB) - Default, fastest, good accuracy
- vosk-model-en-us-0.22 (~1.8GB) - Better accuracy, slower
- vosk-model-en-us-0.42-gigaspeech (~2.3GB) - Best accuracy, slowest
To Use a Different Model:
- Download your preferred model from https://alphacephei.com/vosk/models
- Extract to
BepInEx/plugins/NocturnalLyfe-Speech2TTS/model/
- Keep the original folder name (don't rename it)
- The mod will automatically detect and use it!
Tip: You can have multiple models installed - the mod will use the first one it finds in the priority order above.
Warning: Changing to larger models will cause lag and is only recommended for users with stronger devices.
Troubleshooting
Mod not working:
- Check
BepInEx/LogOutput.log for errors
- Ensure all DLLs are in the plugin folder (libvosk.dll, libgcc_s_seh-1.dll, libstdc++-6.dll, libwinpthread-1.dll)
- Verify at least one model folder exists in the
model/ directory
Low accuracy:
- Speak clearly and at a moderate pace
- Check microphone quality
- Consider upgrading to vosk-model-en-us-0.22 or vosk-model-en-us-0.42-gigaspeech for better accuracy
No audio transmission:
- This is normal when STT is enabled! Your voice is muted and replaced with TTS
- Press F7 to disable STT for normal voice chat
Wrong model being used:
- Check the log file to see which model was loaded
- Remove unwanted models from the
model/ folder
- Models are loaded in priority order (small -> normal -> gigaspeech)
