SOD Warlords - Voice Acting! *Updated 11/01/2012*

Users who are viewing this thread

ATTENTION, PLAYERS !

Straight to the point: Computica got the idea of voicing battle commands and duel comments. Instead of voicing the main character, the battle orders are voiced as if an officer of a given group under your command was responding in accordance to your royal whim. Whether the Player character is going to get a voice set is unclear at the moment, but that's for later.

Obviously, if we want the lines to be voiced, we need VOICE ACTORS. If anyone wants to give a try at voicing them, please do so and forward your voice to Computica  :lol:

Update:
For people who are interested in voice acting they will receive an early release of Beta 4 to test out there voice acting skills. In order to get it you just need to PM a sample of your voice saying 1 of the dialogs and I'll be more than happy to send it to you. In this early release package there will be replaceable blank audio files so you can try it out yourself. Just so everyone knows I haven't planned a release date yet for beta 4, but it is in a playable state.

PM me if you have any further questions about getting the early release. You can also state any ideas you may have on this thread.

OGG format please as it keeps audio at a acceptable quality even when compressed. Also you can use Mediafire and Filefront to upload and send files. My Mediafire account comes pretty handy.

PERSONAL NOTE:
When voicing the lines, you do not necessarily have to stick to one voice and accent. Feel free to experiment with different tones and accents for the various lines. The fact that say, the Villianese are celtic-themed is only a guideline. It's entirely okay if you give a welsh accent for one line and scottish for another. This diversity will give the feeling as if there were multiple officers ordering troops around.

Update:
For people who are interested in voice acting they will receive an early release of Beta 4 to test out there voice acting skills. In order to get it you just need to PM a sample of your voice saying 1 of the dialogs and I'll be more than happy to send it to you. In this early release package there will be replaceable blank audio files so you can try it out yourself. Just so everyone knows I haven't planned a release date yet for beta 4, but it is in a playable state.

PM me if you have any further questions about getting the early release. You can also state any ideas you may have on this thread.

Update 2:
Everyone thank you for your submissions! I've been quite busy with real life but I plan to start implementing these voices soon.

Drat, you beat me to it. :lol: I'll make your post the 1st on a new stickied thread.
 
Wow, didn't expect that  :eek: now I gotta' rewrite my post so people visiting this sticky thread will know what this is exactly about  :razz:

Anyway, I hope you like them.
 
I just flipped through them and imagined what each of the sounded like.  :grin: I approve!

When I'm ready to add my additions I'll edit/add them into your 1st post if you don't mind.

EDIT:
For some of these I would like it so that they can also say just "Fall Back!" or "Fire at Will" with out the extra dialog sometimes. That way it won't become something that is too repetitive.

EDIT 2:
As far as the formation mod goes I just was in discussion a few hours earlier and I found out that he is really friendly.  :smile: I'll be adding a few of the features from his mod since I love the way his formations are done so far.
 
I don't mind at all, please do so; it will only hasten the work  :wink:

I edited the first post to show general info about this voice-acting plan. For now.
 
Cool I'm really excited (that means I'll be working faster :lol:)

The In-battle dueling mod is looking great right now. I'll have some screenshots up sometime tomorrow. But I know that the pictures themselves won't do the mod much justice.  :razz:

Can you do this ? I mean, can you make it so that certain orders could have 2-3 variants and be randomly picked ? :shock:  if so, I'll be eager to add some more lines, just for variety's sake...  :roll:

Um, whose formation mod are you going to use then...? If I can track down what formations are included, I can make lines for those as well.

Yes, it just like how swinging a sword sounds or when several muskets go off, they all sound different. I got so 'creative' with the female hurt sounds one person said the mod sounded like a Japanese porno.  :lol:

Foxyman's FormRanks Kit:

Form Wedge(s)
Form Square(s)
Form Arc(s)
Dismiss (Formation)
Tactical Charge (Slow Charge)
(Move/Shift/Ten Steps) Left
(Move/Shift/Ten Steps) Right
Turn Left
Turn Right

Note:
There are 2 more where the player can tell the troops to face the enemy direction or be in a free direction. After much testing I'd rather them to be faced at the enemy so the free direction may not be necessary.

I wonder how would he know that...  :roll:
Anyway, more lines it is then. I'll be sure to include some plainer ones.

Thanks  :cool:
 
:cool: I'm loving the dialog for the rank formations. I had to act out some of them myself.
Favorite Dialog so far:
Adenian:
Form Arc(s)
- "Form an arc ! I said ARC you idiot, not wedge !"

I really want all of these dialogs in-game. I'm sure I do the same thing for the enemy troops also. hearing them shout orders from a distance would be fantastic!

EDIT:
If anyone can contribute to this I'd really appreciate it.
 
Sweet!  :grin:

Hey, i had an idea, why not post this on the ModDB page? more people frequent that page, and we would have potentially more voice actors, and through that, better variety and game play :smile:
 
Ok I will start working on the vocalizing by now. I decided to play the game to know the factions better, so I can voice them accordingly. Still I do have a few questions/comments:
-Orders are very long. Long orders are perfectly suited for the start of a battle, but not seem very useful during the fight. Some of them are quite indirect. Can't you shorten them or simplify them a bit? No problems though.

-What is done so far? So that I can avoid repeating some of them. Still I don't think that will make any problems.

-Are those, supposed to be voiced by several voice actors such as a voice actor for antarians, another voice actor for another? Or even if one person would give voice to all of them, it will be considered as a great job? What is in your mind? (Remember that in an old strategy game stronghold, there was a guy who vocalized nearly all of the characters/units including villager women. The important thing is it was one of the greatest job that I've ever seen. So it is ok to do so I think.)

-What is the preffered format for sounds mp3, ogg, wma, wav?

-Is it okay to send the files to you Computica via Skype. Because i don't know how/where to upload them. Don't think I have some files at the very moment, I'm only asking.

-Not an important thing though but why I am not in the list as a possible voice actor? Assuming that is the voice actors sheet I see in this thread.
 
I plan on shortening the orders soon, just didn't have time to do that yet. Also, Computica says he can tie multiple variants to one order, so I may write 2-3 lines per order so there will be more variety (primarily plainer ones).

So far only Sirbab made an attempt at Adenian lines, I still have to check 'em out but Computica says he liked them. Everything else is completely untouched.

I think Computica prefers wma format, not completely sure though.

Your name will be added to the list when Computica remembers to do so  :razz:
 
OGG format please as it keeps audio at a acceptable quality even when compressed. Also you can use Mediafire and Filefront to upload and send files. My Mediafire account comes pretty handy.
 
Are you planning to add battle speeches in the future? Just like in the medieval 2 total war. "Marinians are politicians and they hardly recognize a soldier. Let's give them some Antarian steel, and the death they don't even desserveee!".

For that we also gonna need at least one female voice actor, which is like a dolphin in the desert for this forum. A voice convertor could work well too though.

If I can get enough community support for this feature then yes I will add it. Just tell everyone to throw there voices my way and I'll put them to good use.  :wink:
