Voice chat can be a great way for players to communicate with one another, unfortunately, there is no built-in way to do this with V Rising so you will have to go through a few steps to complete this with Unity Gaming Services.
Signing Up For Unity Gaming Services
You will require a Unity Gaming Services account to use Vivox VoIP.
Unity Gaming Services is required to enable voice chat with your V Rising server.
- Access Unity Gaming Services Dashboard.
- Click Create An Account.
- Complete the registration process.
Getting your VoIP Credentials
Before you can complete your ServerVoipSettings.json, you will be required to generate the information to fill it in and download the Vivox DLL file.
- Log into your Unity Gaming Services Dashboard.
- Click Create Project, and give it a name.
- Navigate to Multiplayer > Voice and Text Chat (Vivox).
- Click Setup Voice Chat.
- In the Setup Guide, select Custom, and download Core Windows SDK.
- In the downloaded file navigate to
\vivox-sdk\SDK\Libraries\Release\x64
as you will require vivoxsdk.dll to be uploaded to your server later. - Once downloaded navigate to Credentials as you will require each of the credentials on this page.
Configuring your Server
Once you have the credentials and files, you will be required to upload the DLL file and fill in your ServerVOIPSettings.json file.
- Access your control panel and Stop your server.
- Navigate to Files > FTP File Access.
- Navigate to
/save-data/Settings
. - Edit ServerVoipSettings.json.
- Edit the following config lines based on your Vivox Credentials:
Config Line Vivox API Info VOIPEnabled True
VOIPIssuer Token Issuer VOIPSecret Token Key VOIPVivoxDomain Domain VOIPAPIEndpoint Server - Save this file, then navigate to
/VRisingServer_data/Plugins/x86_64
. - Upload the previously found vivoxsdl.dll to this folder, if there is already one in there then replace it with this new file.
- Start your server!
Enabling Voice Chat
Once your server is setup you'll need to enable voice chat in-game.
- Open V Rising.
- Navigate to Options > Sound.
- Enable Use Voice Chat.
