Dissonance is a voice chat asset for Unity which makes it easy to add high quality, low latency voice communication into your game no matter what network system you're using!

Dissonance 3.0.0

We've just put out a huge new update with several new features. We've added support for the Universal Windows Platform (aka. windows store apps) - now Dissonance can run on the hololens! We've also added a built in integration for Forge Networking Remastered, previously using Forge required a load of scripting to bind together Dissonance and Forge, now it's a simple drag and drop process. Broadcast channels can now have their volume set per channel, using this we implemented soft fading so your voice can softly fade in and out (for example when you walk in and out of a proximity activated chat room). Finally we've added peer to peer routing to the networking system, this halves latency and can cut bandwidth costs on metered networks.

Check it out on the asset store.

Features

• Real time, high quality, low bandwidth voice communication provided by the Opus codec.
• Written to be totally independent from the underlying network system. Use the built in networking support for UNet HLAPI, UNet LLAPI, Forge Remastered, Forge Classic, Photon Unity Networking or Photon BOLT. You can also write your own integrations for any other networking system.
• Positional voice playback makes other player voices sound like they're in the correct positions with no additional bandwidth or processing overhead. Even when you're using a VR spatializer plugin.
• Collider based chat volumes automatically start and stop talking based on where players are in the scene. Attach the trigger to your player to get easy proximity voice chat.
• Automatic voice detection algorithm starts and stops transmitting when players are speaking, no need for players to set up a push-to-talk key (PTT is also supported).
• Priority Speakers automatically mute lower priority speakers when a high priority speaker is speaking.
• All source code available when you buy the asset. All the C# source code for Dissonance as well as the C source code for the native dependencies (C is not included in the package yet, but will be supplied upon request).
