OLD HUB

Ok I just started playing morrrowoblivion and I installed the voice file with the nmm and manually and I am not getting any voice acting.

They sound good to me, keep up the making them.

Got it, we will continue with Brara Morvayn and I will let you know what else we plan on doing. I will also redo those lines in the next few days to see if I can nail the voices.

hey u should ad 1 more npc to the list that needs a voice i just started skywind agian and hey doesnt even have a name but the guard that helps u of the boat should have a voice

 than forget i typed anything : )

Hello there! Our lovely mutual friend, Krystal, told me all about this dealio! She was all "Vail. Have you heard about Skywind?" and I was all "Oh? Is that like Morroblivion?" and she was all ">:| Yes" and I was all "<:D TELL ME ALL THE THINGS!"

And here I am.

!

So I've been reading a bit around here and been talking with other friends and a bunch of us were thinking of pooling our resources and doing some voices for you! Also, are you still in need of people to make npc faces? And also, in regards to that, how would one go about makin them npc faces?

Thanks!

Well, there's myself, my boyfriend, another really close friend of mine and her husband, and she says she knows a person or two who may be interested. We are planning on getting together this weekend to see what we can cook up. I was tinkering all night with my boyfriend's mic and my laptop and seeing what I can do. I'm having a really hard time deciding what I can or cannot do voice wise, but I'm sure something will work....

vailismyname:

that would be awesome :) just try to imitate all of the races, and we can decide what races we would assign to each of you :)

just upload somewhere what you guys will record and post links here :)

Ok wonderful! I will pass the message along! Depending on everyone's schedules, I may see the one friend tonight between my shifts. See if maybe we can whip up some race samples. Admittedly, I haven't the slightest as to how to make my voice raspy enough for an Argonian... 

Hello again!

I hate to be a pest, but I'm wondering! I'm at my friends place right now and we've been fiddling with Audacity and our mic, and after jimmyrigging both a circular makeshift wire hanger-covered-in-lady-nylons to speak into and a blanket backing behind us, we are still having a hard time cutting down on those sharp S's and we are also having a hard time with finding a happy medium with noise reduction on Audacity while simultaneously trying not to make it sound like were are in a hallway. We are wondering if you would have any more recommendations!

For the harsh "s" sounds, you can use a Deesser, which, as the name implies, de-esses :P that will allow you to get closer to the mic. There are also noise reduction vsts and such that you can use. Below is a site to get some free vst plugins to try.

Let me know if you need any more info there.

I also just noticed that Audacity has some of that already built in under the "Effect" tab. You can try those and see what success you can find. 

I *may* have found a method. Now, would you like samples posted here or emailed?

By the way, nice Dunmer Stij. It's good to see even the one in charge of the voice acting can do a good voice as well.

Ok. Some more from Arns Saren now...

aaaaarrrh I'm trying to post one more, but the spam blocker seems to have a vendetta with me...

I think that may be in part something to do with mediafire and the rendering. Hmmm I wonder now if I emailed you the files as is if that would sound any better... Hmm

I also did some tinkering to see if I could get the file a bit quieter as to not blow ones eardrums out, which is where the volume was initially... Maybe that's where some of the blegh came in....

I was wondering today whether it would be possible to use a program that generates voices, like monotone robotic voices, as a filler to help fill in the gaps on voices. That way we can get past the speedy subtitles without just having it default to an empty sound file or anything. I also have no idea how much work would be involved in doing this either, but I thought I'd throw it out there.

Dropping a dll in Skyrim folder (Fus Roh Doh SKSE plugin) is way easier than generating robotic voices for everything imho :)

That's cool then. I wasn't sure whether or not it would be a reasonably doable thing as far as time and effort.

Hello! I saw about the Skywind project recently and I think it's great! 

I realise this isn't the typical Dunmer voice for Morrowind, but considering his lines and status, something somewhat posh just felt... right. 

Three samples:

I've never done any voice acting before. What do you think?

If you want to hear the rest of the lines, I attached the MP3's. I have the wav's and Audacity project file, too, but it put the file size over there limit. I'm looking forward to trying some different characters. :)

Hi, again. I thought I would try out a Khajiit today! J'Dhannar the Skooma addict.

I attached the rest of the lines in MP3. As with the other, let me know if you'd like to use it because I have the .wav's and original Audacity project file. :)

So this is still being worked on then, right? I've worked on several big Skyrim mods like "Falskaar" and "Helgen Reborn" and was a huge Morrowind fan.

Imperial (Neutral Accent): http://youtu.be/_O2S49ciR_g

Khajiit: http://youtu.be/6ePJvnX7Xts

I can do shrines/Gods too if needed.

That sounds very good ;)

I hope to see the day when Skywind plays as smoothly and flawlessly as Falskaar :P

Thanks! I updated my post with a short reel of all the races as a sample.

Hey there, I just stumbled on to this group and was wondering if anyone knew If any characters need a British accent? because I would be happy to give it a try :)

Man I'd love to hear some of the morrowind idle chat in skywind. I miss old guardsmen "Muthsera" or the typical ordinator "We're watching you......scum":D
