A user-friendly Powershell based SFX patcher for Roblox Windows
Made by @the_steb on Twitter

This is a simple SFX Patcher for Roblox on Windows based Roblox clients that reverts back the old Death sound effect with the new one. Plus with value detection gates added as a backend feature (Network Detection, OS Filters, Directory Check).

It originally aims to restore the old ouch.ogg death sound effect on Roblox where it was recently replaced with a newer ugly version of the sound effect.
How it works is it uses native automation that PowerShell delivers to automatically execute these commands at once.

Supported Versions:

• PowerShell Core 5 or sooner versions (Although PowerShell 7 is highly reccomended)
• Windows 8
• Windows 8.1
• Windows 10
• Windows 11

Attempting to run this script with an outdated version of Windows or running this script on a Linux based sytem will otherwise trigger a detection gate that blocks the download process due to compatibility issues.

Installation

Installation is simple, you may clone this repository on your computer using git or by just jumping here if you fancy going shortcuts.

HOLD UP!
Unless if you know what you're doing, do not run these steps on a PowerShell terminal with Administrator privileges!

Requires scoop or choco as package managers to install or clone git repositories on PowerShell.

If you haven't yet installed either one of these two, you may do so by following each package manager's installation docs:
It is never recommended to install two of these at once, so you have to choose one that you prefer the most.

• install Chocolatey
• install Scoop

Once installation is complete, you can install git by running this command:

*for scoop:
scoop install git
---
*for choco:
choco install git

once git is successfully installed, you can now clone the repository to use it directly:

git clone https://github.com/steb-git/reoof

After cloning the repository, you can change the working path of your PowerShell terminal to execute the script:

cd reoof

And finally, run the scipt by inputting:

./ReOOF_Patcher_GH.ps1

Wait, installation steps are too complicated! D:

Alternatively, If you aren't a fan of CLI and highly-technical stuff and want a quicker, easier way to install this script, you can do these steps:

• Install the package directly by clicking this hyperlink.
• Extract the .zip file that you've just downloaded on any of your preferred folders
• Double click the ReOOF_Patcher_GH.ps1 file to start the installation.

Contribution

You can help me amplify my efforts on making reOOF better by

• Submitting new feature requests/reporting issues
• Submitting a Pull Request and add new additions of the installer code yourself
• Talk about new features on our Discord support server!
• Sharing this repository with your friends who might find this useful, there is strength in numbers! <3

I am aiming this to be as user-friendly as possible, if some fuzzy elements can't be combed out, you may submit a new suggestion on how can i do so!
