Kydoimos 916 Posted February 26, 2015 Hi all, Out of interest, is it possible to change the language of a unit via the config somehow? Obviously, one would need to add the audio files, but was wondering if it can be achieved? And if so, how? Thanks guys! I'd be interested to hear if it's feasible! :) ---------- Post added at 09:52 ---------- Previous post was at 09:48 ---------- Oh, and by language, I mean the audio language in which they speak commands etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kbbw123 115 Posted February 26, 2015 you can over an identity.hpp file yes. if you mean for an entire faction i would still say yes but thats more in the config of their base unit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kydoimos 916 Posted February 26, 2015 @KBBW123 - awesome! That sounds brilliant! Does anyone know how one would go about that? Not for a faction, just for a unit or group of units. If there's a tutorial out there, I'm more than happy to watch / read it and give it a go! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kbbw123 115 Posted February 26, 2015 Check out indeedpete's merc campaing he has a file like that in there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IndeedPete 1038 Posted February 26, 2015 My indentities.hpp is just a plain old CfgIdentities which gets included by every mission's description.ext. It does not define a new language type, it just holds data about the indentities of the used characters. I don't know how to add a whole new radio protocol next to the existing British English, American English, English with Greek accent and Farsi protocols from the vanilla game. I think you two gentlemen are taking about different things.^^ I'd search for "radio protocol" or something. I also recall this question came up in one of Zealex' threads regarding her F3MALE addon, not sure if she was able to add another radio protocol. Maybe (and that's a big maybe because I haven't tried that mod yet) the RHS Escalation mod includes Russian radio protocol for their Soviet units - it seems very well done hence that thought came up. In any case it will most likely require to do an addon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kydoimos 916 Posted February 26, 2015 Cool - thanks, IndeedPete! Good to know the RHS Escalation mod managed it - because I was putting together a little CSAT Russian faction as a mod! :D I was inspired by your EuroForce addon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IndeedPete 1038 Posted February 26, 2015 Again, I'm not sure if they actually made it. It was just a hypothesis based on what I heard about the quality of the modification. Might be worth to find out. :) Glad my work leads to more evil CSAT forces. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kydoimos 916 Posted February 26, 2015 Ah brill - seems a lot of people are using BIS' Russian recordings in Arma 3 as mods (from OFP I guess?)! Just need to check out the config to see how it's done! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IndeedPete 1038 Posted February 26, 2015 From Arma 2 I'd much rather say. It had Russian troops.^^ Though the radio protocol was more robotic back then, might sound weird compared to A3's protocol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jona33 51 Posted February 26, 2015 RHS do have russian voices and I'm pretty sure it's the ARMA II ones, they don't sound too bad to be honest, certainly for a community effort. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kbbw123 115 Posted February 26, 2015 Okay just so you know i looked at my config files again for my pmc unit and forgot that i acctually set their identity's to britich voices this is the command line for config work: identityTypes[] = {"LanguageENGB_F","Head_NATO","G_NATO_default"}; Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
