Title: Voice-set's
Post by: Muhkuman on April 01, 2008, 08:10:36 PM

Is it possible to get custom voice sets for you're characters,rather then the ones that come with Never Winter when you buy it?

Yes and no.

You can override the existing voice sets with custom-made ones of your own (or other ones available online, on the Vault, or elsewhere.)

However, this works only to override existing sets.  So you and everyone else who chose your voice set will have the new voice.  Due to some complications with the way Bioware handled voice sets, adding additional PC voice sets to the collection is terminally non-trivial.

Edit: Apparently with Custom Content Guide #3, there are new ways to do this.  However, they require that a new soundset.2da be placed in your override folder, along with the .wavs that you're using.  While this would give you the voices, I'm not sure how it would behave with Layonara's hak paks - and, of course, anyone who didn't have the override, even if they played together nicely, wouldn't hear your voice.

To unlock NPC voicesets you can download the appropriate 2da from the vault. Everyone can hear these voicesets because they come with standard NWN. Completely custom ones, as darkstorme said, would require everyone to have the sound files.

old link wasn't working anymore.  Hopefully this one will have the needed 2da in it for voice unlocking.  Just in case we really should rip that 2da voice override and host it ourselves ;)
