How to fix in game mic volume!

[Enzyme]

With the new GMod update, voices are now a lot quieter than usual. 

Many people say to constantly put voice_maxgain 10 into console. You can do this, however you have to do this everytime you play GMod or it will reset to its default value, which is 2. 

The easiest way to fix this is to automatically run that console command when you run Garry's Mod.

 

1. To do this, navigate to: steamapps\common\GarrysMod\garrysmod\cfg

To find the steamapps folder, it is where ever you install your Steam Games. This is usually in Program Files (x86)

2. When you're here, open up the autoexec.cfg file

If you've followed Forseen's Recent Update Guide on the forums, it may look like this

Now, what you're doing in this file is running a console command every time you load up Garry's Mod.

3. In this file, paste this: 

voice_maxgain 10

voice_avggain 2

 

Once you have put these 2 commands in, save the file. 

Now everytime you load up Garry's Mod, voices will be louder! 

 

Obviously you can change the values of these 2 commands, but that is what works for me the best!

You can also place the microphone against your uvula to increase the overall output of sound 🤡
