What's captioned?

Here's a list of the things that are captioned:

Keep in mind some things will be class-colored:

  • Scout: Vexing Violet
  • Soldier: Agonizing Emerald
  • Pyro: Phantasmal Pink
  • Demoman: Barbarous Blue
  • Heavy: Boundless Brown
  • Engineer: Optimistic Orange
  • Medic: Galvanizing Green
  • Sniper: Yonder Yellow
  • Spy: Sneaky Silver

Check the Screenshots page for a sample of these colors, or cc_emit #Color.Key to test them out once you have the captions installed.

Also, if you feel that you're missing out on the Competitive Caption action, don't worry! A quick cc_subtitles 0 will activate all those captions in case you want to give them a go. The only real difference is that they are always enabled in Competitive Captions so there's less to worry about for those players.

General Captions

The captions that aren't very spammy and will always be enabled:

  • Class teleported nearby (in their color)

  • Class on fire (in red)

  • Engineer's buildings being built/destroyed (in orange)

  • Engineer's buildings getting sapped (in orange)

  • Medic has full Über (in blue-green)

  • Medic activated Über (in red)

  • Sniper threw Jarate (in yellow)

  • Spy is hit with Jarate/Mad Milk (in yellow)

  • Scout drinking BONK! (in Scout's purple)

  • Scout dodging with BONK! (in Scout's purple)

Competitive Captions

Some captions are just too damn spammy, so I made them optional for competitive use:

  • Class took heavy damage
  • Class took light damage
  • Class was buffed
  • Class identified as a disguised Spy

Certain events from Mann vs. Machine are captioned as well (all are in gray):

  • A class is down

  • A class was just resurrected

  • A gate is under attack or was just taken (Mannhattan)

  • A giant robot is about to enter

  • A giant robot is destroyed

  • A giant robot picked up the bomb

  • A robot is being sapped

  • A sentry buster is destroyed
