About this project

What does Sound Device Options add?

Sound Device Options is a very small but handy mod. It allows you to switch the active sound output device while the game is running! This is useful for people who have a speaker and headphones attached to their PC and want to switch between them without needing to restart and chaning the primary sound device in your operating system.

The mod is very lightweight and does not cause any extra lag or startup time.
