New soundsets...


Recommended Posts

Any decent female soundset.  :) In vanilla BG series there is *one* that I'm really comfortable with. The rest are mostly just too caricaturised or plain weird.

 

A good or neutral aligned female spellcaster and ranger or druid soundsets?

 

This is my vote, but basically I would like more soundsets in general considering there are only 5 male soundsets and 4 female soundsets with BG 2/TOB and 3 each with BG 1/TotSC.

I'm suprised no-one's taken the IWD2 soundsets and converted them to BG2 (would basically just require renaming of certain files).  There are quite a few of them...

 

I keep meaning to do that. I've already done a couple for my own use. It's rather dull work, and entails boosting the volume on each individual sound, but if there's broad interest in them, I'll try to get to work on it.

Definitely broad interest. And a lot of interest among the guys, too. :)

More is good! Maybe my CHARNAMEs will start having more than one voice. :)

I do remember a site that had the IWD and HoW soundsets converted for BG2, but I lost the link!  It was a portrait and soundset site...

 

Edit: Found it!  http://havak.db-forge.com/files.php?type=ssbgate

 

Mmm yes...I, too, converted the HoW sound sets to BG format a couple years ago. They are available at http://www.fileplanet.com/section.aspx?s=40805&p=4&v=0

 

If you peruse the BG and BG2 Sound Pack sections of FilePlanet, you will find other custom sound sets created by yours truly. :bday: Among them are a chaotic sounding man with a raspy voice, a hardy and humorous German-sounding man, a pompous/arrogant man, a timid/boyish sounding set (similar to Khalid, minus the stuttering), and a vampire sound set.

 

I have also recorded various sound sets for unreleased mods. If the mods will definitely not be released, then I may release the sound sets separately.

Any chance you could put those someplace that isn't Fileplanet?

Here is one that I wrote up for a charming/cultured mage/thief. I recorded a few lines into .wav files, listened to them and promptly retired from the voice acting industry :bday: Feel free to use them if you like.

What are the real differences between soundsets between games? Or to phrase it slightly differently, what would we need to do to make a WeiDU installer that would let you use these soundsets for any IE variant? Is it just a difference in file naming conventions, or is it actual differences with the wav files themselves (volume, sampling, etc.)?
