FEMALE WYLL IS LIVE (LINK HERE)
Patch 6 updates LIVE
-------
Skyrim has female Heimskr, all female housecarls, female cicero, and of course the great female Ulfric. It is high time that we strive to achieve their levels of greatness.
Experience Gale's Romance differently on your next playthrough!
Or, experience the romance for the first time if he wasn't cute enough as a man
Or, skip the romance and have a badass witch sidekick!
Or, BE the badass witch and play female Gale as the main character!
Or, secretly install this on your friend's computer and tell them their game is bugged!
Minor, very early act 1 spoilers
Trouble deciding which style? My favorites are A, C, and E. Remember, this is an audio mod. Don't let the visuals I picked influence your opinion.
If you don't like the quality or sound of one style, try another. Gale has a massive amount of lines (over 8000) and I don't have time to test them all for each style, so quality may vary from what is shown in the videos and between styles.
If the voice is uncanny all the time, you might need to give it time to grow on you or more likely, the voice probably doesn't match his appearance and/or the way you are roleplaying with him (her?). If it is uncanny only some of the time, the model possibly cant handle all of Gale's range.

Installation / Compatibility
Known Issues
When using only the main file, vanilla voicelines are used for point-and-click dialogue, such as clicking on portrait, casting spells, sneaking, or stealing.
Use your preferred combination of the following solutions
Solution 1: Download the corresponding add-on that converts these lines (THESE FILES MIGHT BE BROKEN RIGHT NOW)
Solution 2: Disable point and click lines in game, so you won't hear it at all for any character.
Solution 3: Use nonverbal spells by arkien which mutes all spell lines
Thank you arkien for sharing the resources to make the spells/interaction add-ons.

New voice styles will be added eventually after I finish other projects

Information about quality
Spoiler:
Do not expect the quality to be perfect. It is unlikely that AI technology, in its infancy currently, will be able to match 100% of the quality of the organic recordings from a talented, passionate voice actor. However, the AI can manage to be pretty damn convincing maybe 95-99% of the time, depending on the quality of the voice model. This is an acceptable level of quality for myself and others. I am sorry if it does not pass your threshold for acceptable quality.
More importantly than the limitations of AI, I am not an audio engineer or AI expert. I am an idiot that followed a guide. Ideally there would be multistep voice replacer AI + manual cleanup, but this is beyond my capabilities or interest.
Flaws in voicelines include scratches, "glitchiness", mispronunciations, "blown-out mic" sounds, and other weird noise artifacts. However they are usually brief and don't ruin my immersion. Use subtitles. It seems like there are some lines which the AI struggles on, no matterwhich voice model is used. Some vanilla audio files have a slight echo or resonance that messes with the AI's conversion of it. Non-word sounds (i.e., breath sounds, humming, laughing) get borked often. Additionally, I think some audio passes through another filter before it is heard in game, which also might mess with the delivery of some lines.
As the author of an audio mod, I am intensely looking for flaws. You will likely not notice them as much as me (especially if you're the type to miss half a voiceline because you skip it after reading it).And if you do notice, you might not care as much, unless your immersion is easily ruined.

Spoiler:
Three Main Appearance Recommendations (pick one)
1. Head and Body Replacer (animations may be messed up, I have only seen one bad animation in Act 1)
Use one or both of the following. I recommend just using both.
Gale Pal - Simple replacer preset for both head and body. Will show up in first scene. Can fully customize if you combine with Appearance Edit.
Appearance Edit - Can change body type and fully customize. Will not show up in first scene unless you combine with Femstarion.
Add Hair and armor/clothing mods (optional)
2. Head Replacers only (animations may be less messed up)
Pontiff's Beautiful Heads to give males a female head option. Use the updated mediafire file link in the locked comment on Pontiff's page!
Appearance Edit to put the female head on him, add makeup, hair, vulva, whatever you want.
Add Hair and armor/clothing mods (optional)
3. Cloning appearance of npcs and applying to Gale
NPC Tool to copy appearance of an existing NPC onto companion of your choice
Born to be ANYONE - Transform into Anyone- similar to NPC tool
Transform into Companions and NPCs - Ring of Metamorph - similar to above mods

100% SAFE TO INSTALL/UNINSTALL AT ANY POINT IN YOUR GAME. It will not break your game whatsoever.
Mod may ignore "inactive" designation in bg3mm. Also may ignore load order rules, which would require you to delete the mod from your mod folder if swapping styles. I recommend keeping backups if you want to switch styles in and out.
Compatibility

His amazing voice acting is undeniable, and gives the AI an incredible foundation to work from. He plays a quirky, flavorful kind of wizard which is exactly how I imagine a wizard friend of mine would be if wizards were real. In my opinion, you should always do a full vanilla playthrough for your first time with any game, to experience it the way it was intended. It is my intention for this mod to offer players a different way to experience the game on subsequent playthroughs, but the beauty of this mod being available for all is that people can use it how they want.
