This is amazing! How long did it take? I will definitely download when I start work on the voiced follower mod I'm planning. Do you have a database with all the lines then? Like a spreadsheet or something? That would be really useful to have too.
Took me about a day. The CK for Fallout 4 is pretty fast, so it was able to spit out the DialogueExport.txt file after a couple hours. Skyrim took around 4 or 5 ta punt it out, and New Vegas...Well, I've never managed to have my computer on long enough for that.
Once that's generated, load it up in Excel 2013 (you'll have to split it up into smaller files for other/older worksheet programs) and remove the unnecessary columns. Add a wee bit of text search-replace to remove illegal chars and truncate the filenames, et voila.
Just do the same thing, really. Generate a DialogueExport.txt file from the CK, and then load it up in an excel program.
Can't be arsed doing a complete tutorial, so I'll keep it brief.
Start the CK File -> Data... Select Fallout 4 + DLC .esm files Click OK Wait for CK to finish loading Character -> Export Dialogue Wait for dialogue to be exported (will take a couple hours), CK will tell you when it's done Use UltraEdit to split DialogueExport.txt into 3 separate text files
For each text file:
Start your Excel program Open the .txt file as a workbook FYI, columns are separated by tabs, not spaces Delete all columns except for "Response" and "Filename" Save as new text file
Open new text file with notepad++ Find & Replace the characters \ / : * ? " < > Replace \ with - Replace / with - Replace : with ; Replace * with ' Replace ? with . Replace " with ' Replace < with ' Replace > with ' Find & Replace all with regex box ticked: $ Replace with .fuz Save the text file
Open saved txt file with Excel Swap the columns, so the Filename is in column A, and response is in column B Save the text file
Open with Notepad++ again Find & Replace with "Normal" box ticked: " Replace with ' Find & Replace with regex box ticked: ^([^\n]{200}).*?$ Replace with $1\(\) Find & Replace with "Normal" box ticked: .fuz Replace with |.fuz Find & Replace with regex box ticked: $ Replace with .fuz Save text file
