Dub Mode is the part of The Choicer Voicer where a video plays and you re-voice it. It arrived in game version 0.5, and it runs on a special kind of content pack — a dub pack — that bundles the scene video together with voice clips already timed to points in it. It is now by far the most common pack type the community makes.
A dub pack is a voice pack with a video attached, so it lives in packs_voice alongside ordinary voice packs and follows all the same rules. On top of those it has:
dub_video.ogv, sitting at the root of the pack folder. OGV (Ogg Theora) is the only format the game plays, and without this file the pack does not load as a dub pack at all.07_Clip_44-048._backing_track: usually the scene's music and ambience with the dialogue stripped out, so the performances sit on a natural mix.Samples are kept short by convention — around six seconds or less — and numbered so they sort in the order they appear in the video.
Game version 0.5 or newer, and a working microphone. That is the whole list. If you are on an older build, update from your itch.io purchase page; if the game records silence when you perform, that is a known engine-level bug and our mic guide covers the steps that help.
The community has made far more dub packs than any other type, spanning films, TV, anime, game cutscenes, and memes, in a good few languages. Install them the same way as any other pack: unzip so the pack's own folder sits directly inside packs_voice, then restart the game.
Cutting a dub pack is mostly video conversion and timestamping. Convert your source video to OGV, split the dialogue into numbered samples, set each timestamp in the in-game editor, and optionally add a backing track. Our dub pack guide walks the whole thing through, and the official manual is the authority on the file format itself.
