J) Disembarking: We fly onto the stage!

[thudo]

Has anyone at least endeavored to record some wav/mp3 at a minimum? We need voice samples..

[GMB]

would if i could dude

[thudo]

Need additional Harlie voices people especially for:

- Library Guardians
- Troubadour
- Troupe Leader
- MockingBird
- Custom Wraith Lord (coming soon)
- Venom

Remember, we need mostly a minimum of 3 IDLE, 3 MOVE, and 3 ATTACK voice scripts as those three are the most repetitive to a player.

[Opuoxions]

Be gentle, I've never suggested voice scripts before.

Library Guardian

Built: We are the Guardians of forbidden knowledge!

Idle: We are vigilant.
Idle: What do you require of us?
Idle: We serve the Laughing God.

Move: So be it.
Move: We do what we must.
Move: If the Laughing God wills it.

Attack: We will enlighten them.
Attack: They will not get past us.
Attack: We fight for Cegorach!

Taking Damage: Is that it?
Loss of Morale: No! We cannot fail!
Regain Morale: Back on guard.
Embarking: There is much ground to cover.
Disembarking: We have arrived.
Told to capture a point: We will take it for their own good.
Told to capture a point: It must be secured.
Told to capture a point: This is too dangerous to leave unclaimed.
Point Captured: We have gained valuable knowledge here, let us put it to use.
Point Captured: The Laughing God claims this place.

On second thought, I should just leave it to GMB

This guy is full of win.

I'd go for about 80% - 90% with what is on this list.

Thanks, glad to help : )

Fluff fanatic at your service *bow*

[thudo]

Blimery! That helps ALOT.. Thanks GH!

[GMB]

hmm so we have scripts, now we just need voices =/

[thudo]

Yeah but its more "involved" then just giving Mystecore the scripts saying: "ok now you figure it out". Each unit's voice has to be given personality, are they all female? How close do you want the voices to sound like vanilla Eldar? The Harlequin in the vanilla Eldar army basically sounds the same as the other Eldar with a slight pitch change. I can go to Mystecore and get this moving.

As long as I have all the wavs done and the team here agrees the voices sound the part of the unit/squad they represent then getting the wavs ingame is beyond a purile joke as I have scripts to do this for me and its too easy.

[GMB]

they aren't all female by any means, they're a mix. Stick with a similar voice to the vanilla DOW harlequin imo, death jesters similar to dark reapers like they are anyway, i LOVE the shadowseers voice. Great Harlequin should be female imo, Solitaire should be male.

[thudo]

Indeed although what you ask should be documented. I would STRONGLY recommend for each Harlies character (this also goes for any DoW1 mod you are building voice scripts for) one should mention kind of voice: male/female/animal/robotic/etc, voice personality: stern, authoritative, shy, scared, insane, loyal, belligerent, etc.

Also.. you cannot forget that we need a minimum of 2 voices for the following faction-SPOTTING scripts. This is normally voiced by the first major Tier1 unit that comes across an enemy on the battlefield for the first time. ie. Marines for SM/CSM.. Firewarriors for Tau, Sluggas for Orks, etc.

The factions needing spotting are:

blood_angels
chaos_marine
craftworld
darkangels
death_guard
eldar
emperors_children
harlequins
imperial_guard
imperial_guard_mod
inquisition_daemonhunt
iron_warriors
legion
necron
ork
space_marine
steel_legions
tau
tauva
thirteenth_company
thousand_sons
tyranid
ultramarines
witch_hunters

Just need 2 for each. Most of them would be amusing abusive taunts demeaning each one above suggesting their "inferiorness" OR some might be "in awe" of their presence and voice some minor concern.

[GMB]

good point!

i'll start work on it soon

[thudo]

I know it looks a tad "daunting" but all factions listed above are ones that have a decent chance of coming out. Good thing is: some factions dupe each other like the IG, Tau, and Sisters so we can use the same spotting for those. SM and CSM Chapters are probably best made different as some races have individual grievances with specific chapters.
