Server Setup Player Setup

How It Works

GameVox GameLink connects your RedM server to GameVox voice chat

Proximity Voice

Players hear nearby voices that fade with distance. Voice range is adjustable from whisper (3m) to shout (15m) to megaphone (32m).

3D Spatial Audio

Hear players in stereo based on their direction relative to you. Voices come from the left, right, or center depending on where they are.

Drop-In Replacement

Replaces SaltyChat with zero friction. Install the resource, tell players to use GameVox, and you're done. No TeamSpeak needed.

Requirements

✓
RedM Server with OneSync

OneSync must be enabled for player position synchronization. Add set onesync on to your server.cfg. If you use txAdmin, make sure it isn't overriding this setting.

✓
GameVox Desktop App

Each player needs the GameVox desktop app installed. Download here.

✓
GameVox Voice Channel

Players must be in the same GameVox voice channel while playing on the RedM server.

2

Join a Voice Channel

Open GameVox and join the same voice channel as your RedM friends.

4

Cycle Voice Range

The keybind can be changed in RedM Settings > Key Bindings > GameVox.

Megaphone

The keybind can be changed in RedM Settings > Key Bindings > GameVox.

Configuration

Customize voice ranges, keybinds, and update intervals in config.lua

Config = {}

-- Voice ranges in meters (players cycle through these with F1)
Config.VoiceRanges = { 3.0, 8.0, 15.0, 32.0 }

-- Default voice range (1-based index, 2 = 8m normal)
Config.DefaultVoiceRangeIndex = 2

-- Keybind to cycle voice range (rebindable in RedM settings)
Config.VoiceRangeKey = "F1"

-- Position update interval in milliseconds (280ms = SaltyChat standard)
Config.UpdateInterval = 280

-- Show voice range notification when cycling
Config.ShowVoiceRangeNotification = true

-- Megaphone: hold-to-use keybind that extends voice range
Config.MegaphoneRange = 100.0
Config.MegaphoneKey = "B"

Developer API

Integrate with your death system, custom names, and more

SetPlayerAlive

Control whether a player can be heard (for death/respawn scripts).

-- In your death script:
exports['gamevox']:SetPlayerAlive(playerId, false)

-- In your respawn script:
exports['gamevox']:SetPlayerAlive(playerId, true)

SetPlayerGameName

Set a custom game name for a player (for character name systems).

-- Set a custom name for voice identification
exports['gamevox']:SetPlayerGameName(playerId, "John_Doe")

Game Overlay

See who's talking without leaving your game

Overlay Modes

The GameVox overlay shows voice channel participants over your game. With 5 or fewer participants, it shows everyone with avatars, names, and speaking indicators.

With 6+ participants, the overlay switches to speaking-only mode:

  • Speaking green text with a sound wave icon
  • Recently spoke white text, visible for 3 seconds
  • Silent removed after 3 seconds
  • When nobody is talking, shows "X users in voice"

The overlay dynamically resizes based on visible speakers. Position, size, opacity, and the speaking-mode threshold are all configurable in GameVox Settings > Game Overlay.
