(Early WIP) Complete overhaul/edit of voices.

Post by Privata »

Yes that right....so what is the mod going to be like? just removing stuff?
no....
im going to edit out the bits that make a line stupid , not remove them.
for example.
''nice chat........NOT !'' thats realy stupid , but "nice chat........"" and that it is much better sins it shows the feeling of anger or what ever without being childish.
im going to try to replace all the non protocol type of things in space to be more ''possitive"" ""negative"" ""roger , following you"" etc.

so what to expect.
higher pitch split.
slower teldadi?
no more be well mind (what does that mean?!)
and more stuff as time goes one

Yeah, i was listening to a selection while making the copilot convo mod. oodles of unused dialog, much of it without the weird intonations and sounding like Yisha's high on horse tranqs.

UPDATE :
Done most of the dialog for the ''Nice chat or NOT'' girl need to give her a not Mmmm... Miss. Nottingham
there still alot of misc stuff left to do with her , and to be honest she has the worst dialog in the hole game.
there are other ones but its more like lets say she has 100 lines (she has more IRL) well 80 of them are bad , but with the others its only about 1-5.

bare in mind this will not remove dialog , just trim out stupid words , or for example know nottingham says goodby ottani when she likes you (as a trader) rather than saying bo boil your head she say ''go away"" or somthing like that.

I also added destortion sounds to the combat speach and increased pitch a bit during thos moments.

oh and she will no longer ''totaly swat you"" with IIRR means calling the swat at your house as a prank? right? not very threating in a space dog fight.

if egosoft are reading this , I dont wont to poke fun a the dialog , in fact most of it is good , and thats why I am triming them out , know it does seem like its trying to be funny and at time it would be. I just feel that humor needs to be in the plot bits and not all the time , I recomend keeping sand box dialog generic like ''yes"" ""no"" ''roger that ren , following" it adds immersion.
annyway love the game its nice to have a real new X rather than a expansion for Xbtf again lol :)

When they say "I'll swat you" they probably mean "swat you like a bug" like with a fly swatter. As in, "you'll be really easy to kill".

This mod will be very needed though. Stations are *not* a nice place to be in the vanilla game, with the constant machine humming, muffled music, buzzing flies, and ugly NPC's that throw weird insults at you for no reason :P

thanks arc.
I hate glorifying about my work , but indeed the game is immersive know.
like befor sometimes you would get ''I need someone to disapear , for ever and ever and ever (something like that) know its just someone needs to disapear.

its nearly ready for V1.

V1 will have most of the awkward or non protocol stuff trimmed down.

and for station ambiance next version of my other sound mod will change station sounds to sound more nice.
machines will be less loud and the ambiance sounds will be that of chatter in an air port
