Help with creating a custom voiceset needed.

Hello, I am having bad problems with creating a custom player character voiceset for me and my friend to use in multiplayer.

 

I looked up tutorials and downloaded a bunch of toolsets/ programms but I don't understand a thing, so I was hoping you guys could help me out ...

 

Here is a .zip of the soundfiles I want to use (it's Sand from NWN2, so if you maybe have a voiceset ready for him, I would take that one gladly as well  '> )

 

Thank you  '>

Do you think you could be a bit more specific about where you're having problems/confused? What tutorials have you read, perhaps?

Hello, yes, of course. Though I looked through quite a lot of stuff since last night, so I don't remember all of it.

But here is the one tutorial that didn't link off to dead websites in the middle: http://www.antiworld...php?f=21&t=8493

 

And I don't understand anything.

I got the programs/ tools the tutorial told me to get but I don't know where to find the named files and how to properly edit them. Something about StringRefs and stuff and I just have no clue, it's all foreign to me. The fact that I am both dyslexic and that English is not my native language doesn't help either ...

Try to find a custom soundset and see what it looks like and do the same with your own stuff. That ALWAYS works.

 

...to bad IGN killed the only soundset tutorial we HAD... good one!!!

 

Cant realy help you, never did a Player soundset but it seems to be just naming the things correctly and using the correct 2da!

Are you referring to this one by Ddraigcymraeg, baba?

Here's a link to an alternate download for the Quick and Dirty SSF Editor, previously available on the IGN Vault.  Not a tutorial but looks like it may make your sound-managing adventures less hazardous.

Hey, thanks for the info '>

I did manage to create the SSF file now (it's name vs_f_sand).

 

 

Does the ssf file even work when I move the folder with the .wav's around?

Because I have all the stuff in a folder on my desktop atm which I intend to move as soon as I am done.

 

So, the next step would be editing the dialog.tlk, right?

So that the spoken words pop up as text above the character's head?

 

The SSF Editor didn't want to safe the texts I typed into the big box on the right bottom side ...

(Also, I did make a backup of the dialog.tlk)
