Morroblivion

that one line could be modified, if you pitch shift it down, to get a darker voice, it will suit better

i can do it in easily in soundforge

Sounds good.

@Didact1: I think it was meant to be possible to escape with an intervention or recall spell ... Infact vivec told me to do just that incase things went bad: One last note. Dagoth Ur must not get hold of Wraithguard. The Nerevaine must prepare and use a Recall or Almsivi Intervention if there is any risk of death or capture.

No, Didact, not for Oblivon. Oblivion needs Really small chunks to display the text on screen: "You no longer bear the burden of prophecy... You have achieved your destiny, you are free, the doomed Dwemers' folly, Lord Dagoth's Temptations, the" ...is the most dialog that can fit on one "line" in Oblivion. The voice can go longer, but there will be no text to go with it. Blood & Mud does that with long speeches. I don't like it; I prefer to be able to read and hear at the same time. Oters would have different preferences, I suppose.

This might work with some hacking, but Vivic would be standing up. Eloth claims that Humanoid Creatures can have dialog, but I haven't tried it yet. If he is right, and I can get Yagrum to work and say his lines like he's supposed to, then maybe if Eloth converts Vivic as a creature from Morrowind I can get him to sit cross-legged like he's supposed to be.

I was planning on making the "Welcome Moon-And-Star" a Sound rather than tying it to Dialog. That way I can play it as the player approaches, rather than waiting until conversation starts, and then making a custom greeting. I think that would be much cleaner and more like the video. For that I need a WAV file, not mp3. $%#^&% CS! Can somebody convert this .mp3 file to a .wav file? I don't have any audio software at all.

Thank you Didact. This is the original. Could you by chance convert the one that Eloth modified? I really don't like this guy's voice for being a whithered, corrupted demigod of darkness. It just doesn't go at all.

Thank You Didact! I'm sorry to have troubled you to do this twice. This will be in the next release. Now, if I could get the rest of the dialog altered to sound like this, and converted to WAV, then I'll play all the dialog at various points during the battle.

That would be great. Dagoth Ur's dialog needs to be WAV files, and needs to sound evil, not like some college professor. Azura's dialog needs to be spliced into bite-sized mp3 files. I don't know about the rest. What else is there? But, if the dialog is supposed to play without the player engaging in conversation, then it needs to be WAV. If it is true dialog, then mp3. I think dialog CAN be .wav, but mp3 is much better and smaller.

The Dialog Template I supplied for v003 was designed to be used with v003 only. It has long since become obsolete and incompatible. And, I have learned a bit more about how to merge things, so did not continue to update it. What are you referring to where somebody else did voice files? Nothing like that exists to my knowledge. If you've done something like that it would be great!

I had just finished running off the boat a few times to check if the files worked properly and when i visited this site again i read a post where someone,for their personal gameplay preference, did the same thing and offered to upload it as a seperate mod. i guess it never made it on the board. I also changed the new game intro video from the oblivion one where the king is speaking to the old morrowind video so that the video plays when you click on new game and after that you are on the ship and Jiub starts speaking. i took out those new game messages also as the messages were just a way to do what the video did,introduce the story. a while back i asked you about this and you said it had some copyright issues so we couldnt use it in our mod but to my understanding,please correct me if im wrong, all use of morrowind assets are more or less use of morrowind assets.and the video is a morrowind asset so in essence,it should be no different. by the way,the only way i could change it (that i know of) was through the oblivion.ini file. one more thing i did if you're interested.. i changed the oblivion title menu to the morrowind one.well, i put it in video editing software and scaled it to fit on the vanilla oblivion title menu so that it has a morrowind feel with a touch of oblivion design.no big deal,if you want it i'll find out how to upload something and you can see for yourself and decide whether or not ya wanna use it. one thing i couldnt figure out how to do though is get rid of the actual oblivion title thats in a stone like print.if you put the video into place as the main menu replacement you will see what i mean,i know this can be fixed however because there is a mod called DUNE or something that does exactly what i did except they got it to work correctly,maybe you could contact them,or anyone, and ask.

I'm not totally sure I followed all that. Yoshimo had put together instructions for replacing the Oblivion inro video with the Morrowind one. I had forgotten about that. I'll dig that up and include them in the next version of my installation instructions. What you've done with the interface sounds intriguing for some. Most people here would rather everything feel like Morrowind. I will make your mod available on my thread if you like. Or, you could just post it on your own thread as your own mod.

well David, i wouldnt call what i've done a mod. just because that seems like a little bit too much credit,its just an edited video file and replaced with main menu sequence.but,if you tell me what to do i can put the voice files that i have and the video that i edited for the main menu.but what about the morrowind intro video,should i post that? and,i dont care where this link is and i dont care much if i have my own thread or not. i just want to see this beautiful hard work yall have put together complete. and since i have some files,even though not much, i'd gladly post them for yall to use.i just dont have an account to an upload site that yall use.what do yall use,mediafire?i tend to just click the download links,not much look at the address ;) Didact, in the morrowind folder as im sure you know, there are voice files for the greetings for every race in morrowind such as dark elf, imperial,etc. so,if you were talking about converting these greeting files and David has morrowind greetings so that they are different from oblivion dialogue,wouldnt you not hear those lame oblivion dark elves anyway?

thank you for answering my question David,its clearer now. ok i uploaded the files to mediafire. the voice files are in a subfolder called morrowind_ob.esm. it has the lip files too.however,as i studied these files i dont think i really backed up what i thought i did. because the files were supposed to be all numbers,i think.so im thinking maybe ya cant just place them in their respective folder that the voice files are in(should be either music/voice/morrowind.ob or voice/morrowind.ob or something like that. the thing is i had all these files and then i reinstalled oblivion because it was a mess.in the files i uploaded i cannot find jiub.i dont know how much help this will be guys,im sorry.its been sittin on my desk top for when i next installed oblivion i would just put them in the folder since i already did the work in the cs.looks like all that work was undone. to make light of it,the main menu should still be good. once again,im sorry if it wasnt much help guys. here's the link: http://www.mediafire.com/?n7degk2fs98cumj

Sorry Didact, I'm not following you. I have no idea what any voice files are; that is not my thing at all. If you are referring to the ones RockNRoll Cowboy was doing; they are lost. All he was able to upload were text files, not voice files. If you're talking about the ones in Morrowind, I have no idea but from what I understand there are some basic files there we should be able to use--with some tweaking.
