There's a mod for Sven Co-Op called Half-Life - Full Audio Remaster. I was wondering if you could use the audio of Gman's dialogue from that, so it doesn't sound a bit low quality.

Sick!
Jofoyo  [author] Jun 14 @ 1:04pm 
yes
Guy Jun 14 @ 1:03pm 
does it work with model changes?
Jofoyo  [author] Jun 10 @ 7:52pm 
There are too many unique, changed, or new voice lines added to Black Mesa that I cannot.

Tysm!!
Jofoyo  [author] Jun 10 @ 9:24am 
Done

Could you maybe add compatibility with Endgame Enhanced? Currently G-Man won't move his mouth in the "Accept" cutscene.
Jofoyo  [author] Apr 29 @ 8:41pm 
I've updated the description to better reflect this.
Jofoyo  [author] Apr 29 @ 8:38pm 
As stated previously, there is no voice cloning work done here. This is not generative AI, this is manipulative AI, and some hand crafted work. These are the same sounds from Half-Life 1, just heavily modified. So the moral implications are the same as any other voice splicing and alteration mods or machinimas.

Michael Shapiro is alright with this right?

Listen to all these Saberspark wannabes complain about AI. I honestly don't care if you're using AI for this mod. In fact, restoring old game audio is one of VERY few things that AI should be used for. And just telling from the outdated video, it sounds really good, so it's not like the AI did a bad job enhancing the audio. Besides, we may never get the original studio quality audio.

could you please lipsync the "wisely done, mr. freeman" line? Citizen5's Endgame Enhanced mod adds a new cutscene where gman says this line in the ending, but i noticed that this mod didn't have lipsync data for that line

This does not replace any VCDs only the .wavs
tpd1864blake Jan 4 @ 12:14pm 
Does this replace the endgame vcd?
Thaddeus Dec 27, 2024 @ 11:20am 
Have you considered making a version of this compatible with the recent 'Endgame Enhanced' mod?
Jofoyo  [author] Nov 30, 2024 @ 10:09am 
@Halsi Mike Shapiros voice hasn't been cloned with this project because of the moral implications. This was done just using AI powered cleanup filters. No generation or dubbing.

This process was no different than editing the audio normally, except this just does a lot of the work restoring parts of the sound that are otherwise lost for good.

WHY! STOP FUCKING USING AI
DFE 785 Nov 18, 2024 @ 1:59pm 
Could the original version, the one with the original HL1 voice (maybe a version with the one from Audio Remaster), be uploaded?
Zorbanator24 Oct 22, 2024 @ 9:03pm 
Thanks Jojo :) missed gmans old sinister voice
Painevan Apr 14, 2024 @ 12:01am 
Fair enough
Jofoyo  [author] Apr 14, 2024 @ 12:00am 
Granted, only so much that could be done with what I was working with.
Painevan Apr 14, 2024 @ 12:00am 
Good to know, thanks!
Jofoyo  [author] Apr 14, 2024 @ 12:00am 
Yep. It's been somewhat improved after using another AI tool. The lip sync was also adjusted.
Painevan Apr 13, 2024 @ 11:57pm 
Has the voice been updated since the release? Ngl it sounds a bit choppy in the video
TCMOREIRA Sep 24, 2023 @ 1:15am 
Ty!
Jofoyo  [author] Sep 22, 2023 @ 12:27am 
ya
TCMOREIRA Sep 22, 2023 @ 12:01am 
Is it BMCE compatible?
mrglanet Aug 19, 2023 @ 3:56pm 
Is it fine if I use the audio here in an audio rendition of a Half-Life retelling fanfiction? I'll give credit to you, iGerman, and link to this workshop page, of course. Just checking for permission.
hillsii Feb 23, 2023 @ 4:41am 
besides that its AI reconstructed I feel like this really helps play into the uncanny factor of gman with very unnatural pronunciations or sounds makes it feel even more that its something trying to mimic a human voice, very awesome!
Jofoyo  [author] Jan 30, 2023 @ 5:59pm 
Actually it should be fixed, unsubscribe and resubscribe.
Jofoyo  [author] Jan 30, 2023 @ 5:57pm 
I'll get on fixing this, for now, navigate to steamapps\workshop\content\362890\2469050141 and move the content into steamapps\common/Black Mesa/bms/custom/ClassicGmanEnhanced
Jofoyo  [author] Jan 30, 2023 @ 5:52pm 
@ferny Thanks for reporting this, I seem to have messed up while updating the mod, the publishing tool is a real piece of work I tell you.
ferny Jan 30, 2023 @ 5:47pm 
this just doesn't work for me for some reason, tried booting from the endgame thing on new game and actually manually beating the nhialanth
Jofoyo  [author] Dec 28, 2022 @ 1:35pm 
Addon has been updated. The audio has been further improved, and the lip sync has been adjusted. The current preview video is out of date.
Dante Jun 23, 2022 @ 3:26am 
more spooky
Dante Jun 23, 2022 @ 3:26am 
original is my favorite
Jofoyo  [author] May 25, 2022 @ 2:24am 
I will not be doing so as the audio would not be a major upgrade and it'd take too long to re-time all the audio and lip sync it again.
Zetaman May 25, 2022 @ 2:01am 
Hi! Just wanna say that someone (Senn) released a remaster of HL1 Audio! This includes G-Man's lines!

Link to vid: https://youtu.be/5Vh1UkCPXLA

Will you be able to update this mod to use the remastered lines?
Zoltan Apr 25, 2022 @ 11:02am 
yayyy mike shapiro's voice again!!!!! great addon 10/10
Jofoyo  [author] Dec 16, 2021 @ 12:18pm 
It's pretty simple, I experimented with it a little myself. Turns out there is a trial available for the program, granted export is unavailable. However you can get past it by recording your Windows audio loopback in Audacity.
That_1_Guy Dec 16, 2021 @ 12:16pm 
I'm curious on how they did the upsampling process in iZotope RX 8 Advanced
Jofoyo  [author] Oct 17, 2021 @ 1:20am 
@tpd1864blake I mentioned previously someone already did this, you can find it here. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2022182786&searchtext=JapaneseBushBaby
tpd1864blake Oct 16, 2021 @ 6:25pm 
Someone should get japanesebushbaby to revoice the scene and make it into a mod since he sounds very similar to the gman heard in hl2
J.H. Brewster, Byzanium Master Oct 16, 2021 @ 3:06pm 
The distortion makes him sound even more like a bad imitation of a human
it works
Jofoyo  [author] Aug 27, 2021 @ 6:50pm 
Sisk is a cool bro.
Helldiver Unit Never Killed Aug 27, 2021 @ 6:44pm 
This is real good, i did not think that the guy had a good GMan impression but considering that the guy did 99% of the voice work and it was all (except for GMan) really good he has damn well earned his place as a really respectable and great voice actor.
Twin Aurora Jul 26, 2021 @ 8:48pm 
this is wonderful and all but can we talk about how sisk did like 85% of the voice work in this game and it turned out pretty damn beautifully
ibraheem Jul 21, 2021 @ 9:50pm 
@obsoletezeus998 i mean... you could survive if you manage to dodge all of their "bullets"
Jofoyo  [author] Jul 17, 2021 @ 5:46am 
Yes. This mod does not modify any of the choreography files.
