Yes, only act 1 is voiced now. And it will remain so for the foreseeable future, until GLENMORIL is finished. Please don't complain.
The reasoning for this decision is as follows: with the latest update, UNSLAAD is now quite firmly connected with both VIGILANT and GLENMORIL. At least one character appears in quite major role in all three mods and several in smaller ones. And the stories of those characters are not yet over in GLENMORIL, so it makes no sense to start a voicing project now without the guarantee that the voice actors will be able to return in a year or two years' time. And I'd like to keep those voiced addons as consistent as possible with minimal amount of redoing stuff for everyone.
The current plan is therefore to wait until GLENMORIL is finished, all translations finalized and the stories told in the mods understood as well as possible (yes, UNSLAAD gets perhaps as heavy as VIGILANT now) until any work on voicing starts. When that time comes, all three mods will be voiced in one go for the sake of quality and consistency. And yes, that means that VIGILANT is getting remastered.
So, we have some waiting in front of us. Maybe 6 months. Maybe a year. Maybe two. Maybe more. I don't know. But I'll be here, ready to work on these mods again, because they're more than worth my time. I hope you will still be here, too.
--------------------
Translation revision incoming ... soonTM
While we're waiting for the entire trilogy (Vigilant + Glenmoril + Unslaad) to be finished, I am currently also working on translation revisions, both to prepare the ground for the future (re)voicing project and to introduce more consistency across all three mods.
Some info on what this entails:
Know that this means big changes; once this revision is done and I'm happy with it, the revised translation will likely be very different from the one currently uploaded here. This doesn't mean that the story conveyed in the mod will suddenly change or something like that - it just means that the translation will be better and more accurate in all regards ... and that currently voiced dialogue may not match the subtitles all that well anymore (but what is said will essentially remain the same).
Revised translation will be uploaded as an optional, SILENT file at first and it will be entirely your decision whether you'll combine it with the current voiced addon or not. However, once I'm reasonably sure that the trilogy is finished, all the voice work will be done with the revised translation in mind.
When is it coming out? When it's done. But I did finish everything but the books and dialogue for all three mods already, and while that is the largest chunk of all the text, it's also the most enjoyable part of the translation process (even if it means spending three hours analyzing the books about Ja'bal and the utter insanity the Pipers love to spout so much). :)
And who knows, I might even try something with the AI voicing while we wait for Vicn to complete the trilogy for good. No promises on that, though.

Come discuss the trilogy, be up to date on the state of mods, translations, Vicn's blog updates, find answers about the story, etc.
Note: the server is not technical support in any way. If you have modding-related issues, there are other places to solve those problems.

And thank you, cupcakeninja64!
The player character is the Dragonborn and has possessed Akatosh and absorbed his soul.
But there is a dialog in this mod which reads: ”Your purpose is to return dragon souls to Akatosh."
Record: DIAL - zDcdEpiQSamonAFB03T02[0400CEB4]
That's a contradiction. Dragonborn doesn't bring souls back to Akatosh, Dragonborn absorbs them and keeps them, which makes the dragon dead.
The souls in the soulstones which Dragonborn has collected by that way may be used to enchant other items. never go back to the dead Akatosh.
Mixed that, Dragon souls needed for learn new shouts, they fill not a soul gem.QUST: zDcdEpiQSamonAfter (Epi Samon Gen) [0400CEA7] | DIAL: zDcdEpiQSamonAFB03T02[0400CEB4] | Record: INFO - [0400CEB5]
My purpose is to slay dragons...
I think I've told you this before, but dragon hunting is a means, not an end. Your purpose is to return dragon souls to Akatosh.
.You're talking about Dac0da. And what an NPC says is simply what they say, not an irrefutable truth. Useless to discuss whether it's a contradiction or not from the translation point of view - I am translating what they say, not ensuring that what they say lines up with lore. That is entirely out of the scope of a translation and besides, characters say all kinds of things all the time. Some are lying, some believe what they're saying, some are telling the truth, some are gleefully making it all up. None of them have the same outside knowledge as we, the players.
And thanks for your explanation you made nevertheless.
Edit: Done.
Meaning, you need to use Unslaad.esm from here if you want the mod to be in proper English. You still need the .bsa and any other loose files from Unslaad itself, however. This is only a translation.
And no. Not until the entire trilogy is finished. Both Vigilant and Unslaad were voiced far too soon.
Any updates on the
GlenmorilUNSLAAD voice adding?
