IT'S GO TIME

For serious though, given the massive response I've decided to make the option for a "Custom Voice" available with some empty directories to chuck ya business in, as of this writing the next version isn't quite ready to go yet, though the framework for the custom option is done, so I figured I'd maybe give some of you some homework to do in advance.

All of your files need to be .wav in order to work, bitrate is largely unimportant, something low to keep your filesize down and you only need them mono.

So the following will be a listing of the directories used, the filenames the mod will be expecting to use and even though I think they're named the most intuitive names in the universe, a brief description of when it happens, so without FURTHER A DO:

Bold for folders, italics for files, all are wav files.

DataSounds/Fx/CustomVoice

ApproachEntrance

Played when the play character enters the vicinity of a cave/ruin/fort/whatever entrance, currently also triggers inside ruins at points, later version will specifically target entrances
Entrance01

Breathe

Gasp for air when surfacing in water
LeaveWater01

Heavy sprint breathing, recommend having inhale & exhale for each wav otherwise you'll inhale/exhale out of order sometimes

You don't have to fill every slot, but it's recommended to maximize your event chances, otherwise Skyrim can pick empty slots and play nothing sometimes.

While lip-syncing has been implemented as of 0.3.6 it's unfortunately only possible with the voices I've packaged, lip-syncing requires animation files being generated on a per line basis which can only be done in the creation kit.

Hope you've enjoyed reading the most serious text that will ever grace this Nexus file.

As a final note, I've gotten a few messages from people offering voice acting and stuff, this list will be kept current with available events version to version, so if you're feeling an acting itch, those are all your lines, don't limit yourself to the quantities described here, if I include your work in the main file I can put as many variations of lines to an event as needed.

    Good luck with that Schorchguy, I'm ditching this for Additional Player Voices. May not be as contextually ideal, but it works just fine, no crashes!
    There's a video tutorial on how to export your wavs at the proper rate for it too.

      I really need this video, but I can't find it! Could you send me or comment here the video link? I already read every single comment here, searched on Google for videos and information, learned EVERYTHING about bit rate and amostration rate, I've tried all combinations of these damn rates and not even a single audio works in game.

    I am missing something? How do you get the custom voice in the mod, in game. I put the sounds in the correct places, placed the folder where specified. But it still doesn't show up in the mod config? Just trying to get some Dremora voices working.


     
    I also did the same but it seems that this mod does not work, and his creator it's not interested in helping.

      You gotta download the previous version, that is the one with a custom voice called "Custom" in the MCM menu.
      I got it to work but sadly the Weaponswing and Hit0X ones don't work; tried to experiment some tweaking on CK but it cant open the script used on it :/
