SimlishTTS
SimlishTTS is a text-to-speech mod for R.E.P.O. that converts all spoken English text into Simlish — the quirky, nonsense language from The Sims. It works in both singleplayer and multiplayer, and only players with the mod installed will hear the Simlish translation.
What It Does
- Automatically translates all spoken English text into Simlish
- Over 153 hand-picked Simlish words mapped from real English vocabulary
- Randomly adds fun Simlish exclamations and voice effects
- Detects if text is already Simlish to avoid repeated conversion
- Works in both singleplayer and multiplayer
- Only affects players who have the mod installed
How It Works
- Hooks into
Strobotnik.Klattersynth.Speech
methods using Harmony patches - Intercepts speech calls that use
StringBuilder
and plain strings - Replaces English words with Simlish dictionary entries or generates gibberish syllables for unknown words
- Adds randomized exclamations and voice effects to spice up speech
- Ensures multiplayer speech syncing without conflicts
Compatibility
- Fully functional in singleplayer and multiplayer
- Compatible with most other mods
- Only players with SimlishTTS installed see/hear Simlish speech
- No gameplay or performance impact
Technical
- Uses Harmony to patch multiple overloads of
Speech.speak
and related methods - Maintains a dictionary mapping English words to Simlish equivalents
- Uses regex and randomized syllable generation for unknown words
- Includes detailed debug logging for troubleshooting
