WoTC Mass Effect Sounding Voicepack Collection

Added 1 male Krogan voice and 1 female Krogan voice. The male Krogan voice has a censored version (on by default) and an uncensored version (commented out by default). The censored version may still have minor cursing, but it should not be worse than the vanilla XCOM 2 voices.

This will probably be my last update to this mod. I have a lot of things I want to fix/update about this mod and it will just be easier to create a new mod going forward.


Mod ID: 1336595273

A collection of my previous Mass Effect sounding voicepacks, but with additional coding for the three WoTC hero factions. This mod was made using the vanilla modbuddy, but I tested it in my WoTC game to make sure that it works.

As always, the voice lines won’t sound as good as lines ripped straight from the game, but they should sound close enough.

*Warning* Explicit language for the female quarian voice

==Future Plans==
New Mass Effect Sounding Collection mod (hero faction support, re-do Quarian and Salarian voices)


==Q and A==
Q; What do you mean by SOME support for hero factions?
A: This mod has coding to allow hero units to select the voice, but doesn't have voice lines for more hero specific actions (ie. justice, sting, pillar etc.). I'm planning on fixing this issue with my next Mass Effect Sounding Collection mod, but I have a lot of audio to sort through/re-do so that may take a LONG time.

Q: I don't use the ___________ sounding voice, how do I turn it off?
A: Easy, just comment it out. Please see the discussion section if you need a detailed guide on how to do this.

Q: How do I prevent a voice from auto-assigning to new soldiers/haven people?
A: In this mod’s config folder, open the XComContent.ini with a text editor (ie. Notepad ++). Towards the beginning of each line, there should be a section that says Language=“english”. If the Language=“english”, the voice will auto-assign. If you change it to Language=“none”, the voice will NOT auto-assign, but you can still select it in character customization

Q: Will you do voicepack mods for the other Mass Effect species?
A: I have no current plans to do the other species.

==Audio Errors==
Please let me know if the audio levels need to be adjusted.
