Fully restore WEM Opus voice assets to the game as they were before patch 6. Additionally convert new voice lines in patch 6 to WEM Opus for full dialogue support.
Version 1.0
Initial release. Convert higher quality WEM Opus voice assets to Vorbis with less compression to improve dialogue sound quality.
Description
Larian changed their audio encoding format for Patch 6 and the dialogue sound quality has been bothering me ever since. What I found is that they have chosen heavy compression in order to limit audio file size at the cost of quality, most likely to support the weakest systems and consoles. Dialogue Voice Quality Restoration (DVQR) uses the original voice assets from Pre-Patch 6 and reintroduces support for the previous audio encoding for dialogue voice lines.
Voice Sample
Installation
Both DVQR - Main and DVQR - Audio must be installed, otherwise dialogue is silent. Unlike most other mods, you have to unzip the audio part of this mod and install .pak files with mod manager. The audio zip file is too large for BG3MM without unzipping.
Compatability
This is an asset replacer mod and should be compatible with majority of mods. Other voice mods will break if they have been updated for Patch 6.
