IS THIS COMPATIBLE WITH WAR OF THE CHOSEN?
Deadput Feb 13, 2021 @ 4:59pm 
From the Long War mod for EU/EW like the mod title suggests?

I have no idea where you got that South African voice from, but we do most certainly not sound like that.

Is there somewhere a list of phrases? I could assist with a few additional languages. Possibly both male and female. Both native languages and english with accent is possible.

+1 for WOTC version if you have time Plumse :) Thank you for all the hard work!

What's wrong with you maschmelzer

I have gotten literally HUNDREDS of voice packs from the workshop. There are dozens of foreign languages that I don't understand. I'm not interested in them if I can't understand them. I love the accents in English though. Right now I have a dozen polish voices in polish only. I have THREE versions of British accents. There are four versions of English accents (american). I have dozens of German voices in german. There are TWO astraiain accents in english. Why is this so one sided?

Awesome, and thank you!!!

Thanks mate, appreciate it!
Plumse  [author] Sep 8, 2017 @ 11:17am 
I currently don't have the dev tools installed on my PC, but if I have some spare time I might convert it. Making no solid promises, however :(

hey mate, would you update this for WOTC? should be fairly straightforward: https://www.reddit.com/r/xcom2mods/comments/6x3lfm/updating_your_mod_for_wotc/
Aurumlamina Sep 3, 2017 @ 11:42am 
I'm also hoping to see this for WOTC!
vulchor Aug 30, 2017 @ 2:20am 
Any more activity on this in the future? Any luck getting more permissions? Would love to uset his with WOTC

Cheers to all the Singlish, thanks a lot for having it in

@Nightfall29: Long War got these guys to volunteer, most of them were Gamers, and only a few of them had voice acting experience (the british guy who did the Machinima "Clear Skies" for EVE Online being one.

You want to see if you can do better, be my guest and produce a voicepack. otherwise, shut up.
PhatChance Nov 20, 2016 @ 3:55pm 
@Nightfall29 Sure, those unpaid volunteers who donated their time to a free project, they sure are not professionally produced.
Miles Stardiver Jul 7, 2016 @ 1:18pm 
Would you happen to add the SE Asian Female and and South African Female ones at some point?
Tiktak-BoomBoom Jul 3, 2016 @ 12:39am 
Need a french accent ? =)
Nightfall29 Jun 3, 2016 @ 9:17am 
These voice accents are terrible. I didn't find that out until I subscribed to it and tried it in the game. Would have saved some time if there had been a sample youtube clip provided. My guess is that was done on purpose since a lot of people would have not bothered to subscribe to this mod. Thumbs down.

Good luck with the thesis! [OT]What's it about?[/ot]
Plumse  [author] Apr 28, 2016 @ 2:19pm 
I'll be working on some fixes soon, currently stuck working on my thesis irl. Addon is without shader cache @ A Handsome JAWA
Dragon32 Apr 28, 2016 @ 10:54am 
Currently SouthAfrican_MaleVoice1 is set as Language="singaporean" in XComContent.ini

Looking at XComGameBoard.ini, people from South Africa are set to use Language="englishAUS"
Lizard Apr 11, 2016 @ 6:29pm 
Is the size of the file without the shader cache bug?
Dragon32 Mar 23, 2016 @ 1:03pm 
Looking at the lines for "British_MaleVoice1", "British_MaleVoice2" and "British_FemaleVoice1", then comparing them to XCOM2's DefaultContent.ini

All are: Language="english"

If Language="english" was changed to Language="englishUK" they'd have a chance to show up randomly (i.e. without my specific intervention to assign the voice to a soldier) for soldiers from the UK and Scotland nations?

As it is these will be used by Canadians, Americans etc? Er. I think...
Handsome JezdaNikki Mar 14, 2016 @ 1:45pm 
Awesome!!
Plumse  [author] Mar 3, 2016 @ 9:58am 
Hahaha that would be awesome.
Invizigoth Mar 3, 2016 @ 5:11am 
Hey! Later on... Let's do a Bill O'Reilly voicepack! It would be awesome! "Do it Live" :csgohelmet:
Plumse  [author] Feb 29, 2016 @ 4:01pm 
For the Advent voice in particular, I actually copied and created new versions of existing files and rewiring them, i.e. I told the game to play advent voice lines when a soldier is supposed to speak. So, the content folder in the Advent pack contains .upk files that are already present in the original game ( compatible with macs), as for this pack - the upk files that are in the "Content" folder are completely new ones, so yeah, the files in the "Content" folder are completely new ones
kenanthebarbarian Feb 29, 2016 @ 3:35pm 
I figured the native filesource was the most likely explanation for why the Advent voice pack works for me but none of the others. I wonder if the mod files must somehow get added in with the vanilla audio files on Mac. Which ones would they be, the .upk files in your "Content" folder?
Punkster Feb 29, 2016 @ 2:37pm 
@Plumse
No problem, it wasn't ignorant at all. I just wondered what you considered British as the island has quite diverse accents. They are labelled in XCOM 2 as British also, despite two being English, one Scottish and one Irish, the Welsh are not in it at all.
It was a Welsh accent I was looking for, seeing as they are not in the main game.

Thanks for letting me know. :xcom2specialist:
Max Feb 29, 2016 @ 2:32pm 
British Male 2 is a right old mess of English accents ;) See the Clear Skies series on YouTube for a preview :D
Plumse  [author] Feb 29, 2016 @ 2:28pm 
@E3245 Yeah, that's a good idea, thanks again!

@Punkster Daddy Well I only based it on their names in Long War. May sound ignorant I suppose, but since they were referred to "English 1/2/3" and "Scottish 1" or "Irish 1/2", I just assumed "English" stood for British... I do realize there are also different British accents buuuut, I'm not that into accents to know them THAT deeply :D I'm working on providing a short trailer, to give people an idea on what they're getting into. Perhaps that should make things clearer?

To make it short, yes - I equated "English" with "British" in this case.
∑3245 Feb 29, 2016 @ 1:55pm 
No problem.
Just so you know, the compiler will generate this every time, so you'll probably need to write a batch file to delete it.
Punkster Feb 29, 2016 @ 1:54pm 
British is not precise enough for information on this Mod, sorry, not meaning this to come off as nitpicky. Is it English, Scottish, Welsh or Irish?
I'd like to use them all but I was just wondering what you mean by British, is that English to you?
Plumse  [author] Feb 29, 2016 @ 1:48pm 
Is that's what's causing it? It's been driving me mad - I thought that was an essential part of every mod (since I saw it in every other mod that I have pretty much)

Thanks for the tip, I'll make sure to remove it for the next update, same goes for the other things I've done.
∑3245 Feb 29, 2016 @ 1:32pm 
You might want to delete the modshadercache.upk in your content folder. It's really unnecessary and people are noticing that it hinders performance.
Garr Incorporated Feb 29, 2016 @ 7:05am 
Thanks a lot!
Plumse  [author] Feb 29, 2016 @ 6:31am 
Wow, damn, that's the first such complaint I've ever received :O but yeah, I have no idea how these would behave on a Mac :( The reason why Advent troopers is working is because its actually already utilizing files that are inside the game... while the rest of my voice packs were new, imported voices and made into a new voice pack.

In any case, I'm sorry they don't work for you :<
kenanthebarbarian Feb 29, 2016 @ 5:52am 
This is a great idea! Unfortunately, I've tried five of your voice packs (this one included), and only the Advent one has worked. The voices show up in the character customization list, but no audio. I'm on Mac, so I generally don't expect anything to work properly, but the fact that the Advent voice works makes me hopeful the others could too. Gotta get my Zhang on!
Plumse  [author] Feb 29, 2016 @ 5:06am 
@Dim99 Really? Maybe my ears are failing me or my sound testing in game is off, I specifically reduced their volume a little bit before compiling :( Also, I never found any distortions, granted I only tested for ~30ish mins with a squad full of these voices (and 1-2 vanilla ones).

Could you perhaps record such an instance? Or give me an example of when it happens? Thanks!
Dim99 Feb 29, 2016 @ 3:43am 
This is realy cool but much louder than the vanilla voices. Some are even distorting. At least on my end of this.
Polydiscombobulated Feb 28, 2016 @ 8:52pm 
Top stuff. Cheers
Invizigoth Feb 28, 2016 @ 6:49pm 
Very Nice! Hey, this is Good Work! :facepunch:
MoNKeZi Feb 28, 2016 @ 6:37pm 
Looing forward to Singaporean la
Watergun Feb 28, 2016 @ 4:24pm 
Singaporean here. Looking forward to update of porting over Singaporean voice pack!
Lief-Kynes Feb 28, 2016 @ 1:01pm 
Thank you so much for bringing these back, and doing it the right way by working with the original authors. If you do end up getting extra recordings for the missing actions then I can see this being the best voice pack around.
Experiments Feb 28, 2016 @ 11:54am 
Glad you're getting permission and doing this with honorably toward the voice actors and Long War team. That's my deciding factor. Looking forward to using it.
Plumse  [author] Feb 28, 2016 @ 11:45am 
I have all the contacts and will contact them all eventually, I just wanted to more or less do half first, then the other half :) Don't worry though, if the person in question agrees, the voice will be included for sure!
