@eloth & stijmunkey

So I get to do Addhiranirr? Caus that would be awesome! ^^ She was my favourite one to voice anyway.

so are you saying your going to take Addhianirr because if so you are officially assigned

ok this will be harder than i thought skyrim (or at least the ck)  doesnt sort dialogue by npc but rather by quest and has the proper topics in that quest id, so finding all of a particular characters lines is going to be stuuupid although possible good news there is an option when you bring up a line then click it to edit it you can record it straight into the ck then you can preview and save it and it will create the proper file and name and place it, you can also generate a .lip file (lipsyncing) all there in the ck and its done. So that could potentially make the entire VO project extremely easy as you could record lines then just save an esp file and everything is done it would be ready to play in game. its just a matter of being able to find your lines in the ck that seems to be the problem now and unfortunately im stumped.

Really Lol I looked at the npc sheet, where's the dialogue button I must have missed it, I'll check again, I knew I was new to the ck but that seems like a fairly easy thing to find lol

Ok almost everything else is sorted out, all the npcs converted so far (at least in the master i have) have their voicetypes set to male even toned, as far as i can tell i need the npcs to have whatever voice type we are going to give them for the release of the mod before i can put the VO files in skyrim otherwise for now i would be putting them all in maleeventoned and then when the npc gets a new voice type later (i assume we dont want the females having a male voicetype lol) skyrim wouldnt be able to find the voice file any longer because it would now be in the wrong place. At least thats how i understand it so far. On the topic of voicetypes are we making new voicetypes or if possible converting the voicetypes from morrowind over for skywind? Voicetypes include all the static greetings when walking by npcs (or first talking to them) and their attack sounds ect.

Lol I agree we need some experts, I can try fiddling around and see if I can't get a new voicetype created in the ck if I can then maybe the ck will tell me all the lines and sounds that need to go into a voicetype and I can get some people assigned to voice them

Well, I'd like to help out if this is still being developed. The excel document has done nothing but confuse me, however. I'd like to do lines for Crassius Curio and Duvianus Platorius.

If the exel Sheet confuzes you just try following the tutorial and use the cs instead, also record a couple lines and throw them up here! Then if its good we'll get you assigned to do some voices

nevermind i got arios's link to work, my computer must have been being dumb when i tries the first time ill see about getting his voices put in!

I just updated the OP with some new instructions, if anyone is doing voices for 2 characters of the same race please add an extra folder and keep the voice files seperate for each character

A normal file path would look like this:

Data/Sound/Voice/Morrowind_ob.esm/(race)/(M or F)/(your voice files)

Make it look like this instead:

Data/Sound/Voice/Morrowind_ob.esm/(race)/(M or F)/(characters name)/(then all your voice files for that character)

If you dont do this it will make generating the lip files extremely difficult for me almost impossible so please do this

 

Alright i need some opinions, Do we want to make our own voicetypes for skywind, whatever voicetype the npc has will judge where their voice files go, and the voicetypes also include all the generic greetings attack sounds taunts breathing ect. so if we use skyrim voicetypes most likely all our npcs will greet and taunt or attack all in a different voice than that of our voice actors, if we create and voice our own voicetypes we could eliminate this for the most part, now i can create the new voicetype easily and i was able to extract the generic sounds from skyrim so i can listen to what we need to voice for the generic stuff to include in the voicetype and what the proper names should be, the only thing is that there are a little over 250 generic sounds to record thats a lot of extra work especially if we do a new voicetype for each race and gender plus a few for some more well known unique npcs thats like another 5250 lines or sounds that we would have to record. If we managed to do that then the only thing left to do would be to make sure all the generic dialogue quests (what activates all the generic sounds) would be able to pick from the new voicetypes, thats the only thing im not sure how to do.

So do we take the easy way out and just use the skyrim voicetypes (or we could just have all those generic sounds be silent)? or do we do A LOT of extra work to get our own voicetypes in there? Opinions!

@QWERTY, I'm not sure about that esp it was in the download before I took over it must tweak something in the cs? Thanks for letting me know about maiuq I'll change that as soon as I get home, as for the double release thing in one thread it is my understanding that the original intent was just to update the thread to be for skyrim but until some more quest stuff is done I can't do anything in skyrim yet so it's on hold for now, hence why we just kept going with the oblivion method for now (getting the voices recorded is what's important) I can convert them to skyrim later the voice and lip files are compatible with both, then I will change the whole process and thread over to Skywind one I can, or at least I thought that's what we are doing. Why would they put the kajiit in with the agonians lol

Hi solin I assume you were assigned to some argonians before we cleared all the names we hadn't heard back from in a while, do you remember who you were assigned to

Solin so you were just doing the shared lines for argonians? If so I'll throw your name back up there, I'll also probably have another project for you soon
