More Voice Acting = More Modding?

[Xaratas]

@Obsidian As you have learned from PoE that easy access to the resources is needed for a thriving modding community, can you set up a file structure to fetch/generate the audio for the line of a conversation?

 

I am thinking of adding files like 192_npc_Aurora.ogg in the folder /conversations/01_something/voice and then the game would just play it if it display node/line 192.

 

I don't know how crazy the community can go, but for Skyrim they have done an incredible amount of new high quality audio. So i hope this can happen here too.

That's a good idea and I'll keep that in mind if/when we make changes to the VO pipelines. Thank you!

I'll personally probably stick with the stock VO, but I want to say this is a really cool idea.

I just asked a Dev a similar Q

 

Can we change SFX?

 

The problem with VO is it'd sound amateur and prob always be English.

 

I reckon the SFX would be a good idea - you only need one file.

 

I mean, imaging TT1's Dead Parrot being equipped and saying 'Squawk' should be an achievable target (I've prob got a SFX in my library that'd work for a test)
