Setspeaker Command?

[Kydoimos 916]

Hi - I wanted to set the accents for a group of English Special Forces - I've tried the setspeaker command (unit1 setSpeaker "Male02GRE";) but I can't get it to work. Any suggestions?

Patch your game. SetSpeaker is a new command just added to stable this morning.

Or use the full cfgIdentities method. See the setIdentity command.

Also, GRE is a Greek voice. For British you'd want to use one of the ENGB voices.

unit1 setSpeaker "Male02ENGB";

Lovely Kylania - I guess I was just a bit quick on the mark! Quite excited about getting the new commands to work.

Do the Greek voices actually work in game?? As im trying 'setSpeaker' to no avail, with US voices seeming to overide all. And what is the best way to apply it so it works? setspeaker or the cfgidentities?

Thanks

The problem is that setspeaker is not a global command so it's only effective on the machine it is used on.

This is not mentioned on the biki . :(

SetSpeaker Voice section as used by my Beekan_Brits scripts

// Set Random British Voice (There are currently only 4 British voices in game)
_voiceoptions = ["Male01ENGB","Male02ENGB","Male03ENGB","Male04ENGB"];
_voice = _voiceoptions select floor (random (count _voiceoptions)); 
_unit setSpeaker _voice;

Thanks, but already tried that Beer ;) Turns out it had to be called on all machines to get it to work in our mission. Have overcome it with some funky coding (Thanks Tankbuster) and its all good.

Thanks
