kevbaz 0 Posted April 30, 2003 I think no matter where ofp2 is set there should be "voice sets" available, for example so we are not limited to american accents for british troop addons, or russian lingo with the argentine troops, of cause this isnt just for british or agentine addons but all new troop addons that are produced, certainly a wide range of different accents/languages would be a most welcome addition Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theavonlady 2 Posted April 30, 2003 To round out this idea, it would be nice to allow for custom language addons. This would include full replacements for all the standard sound clips used in official OFP2 missions. This way, let's say, if there's a standard voice file for "go, go, go", a mission maker could refer to the same clip file name but specify some new LanguageModWEST/EAST/RESISTANCE statement for within the MISSION.SQM file.

Baron Hurlothrumbo IIX 0 Posted May 1, 2003 But if everyone speaks with their natural accent then noone will be able to understand them. Â I could not stand having to explain myself to everyone so that they understand what I am talking about. Joking aside, I would like this idea Its always good to have more options.

Cannon Fodder 0 Posted May 10, 2003 'This is tae Sicks O'Clok noos. Belt up.' - Tom Leonard Speaking of radio, if we're in 1970s Vietnam, wouldn't it be better to just shout or whisper orders in the jungle (Depending on Stealth/Aware status)? Not every order was conducted via the radio, you know. Especially when you have to keep in contact with base camp via a radioman, wearing a bulky radio 'backpack'. I'd prefer some decent spoken orders (with subtitles) if you're fighting in the jungle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jinef 2 Posted May 12, 2003 Talking of subtitles use the sub one at the bottom, not that huge thing that blankets out half the screen. Also make them a more clear font and have an option of changing their colour Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dubble0zero 0 Posted May 12, 2003 I think that they should be made as movie subtitles, the text can have background, and there should be options to change the collour of both the background and the text... (and the abillity to have the background transparent) And it should as everything else be an option... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cideway 0 Posted May 14, 2003 Australian accents would be good but for christs sake don't makem sound like the Croc Hunter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theavonlady 2 Posted May 14, 2003 This thread has lost touch with reality. Installing an engine that can take a sound file and convert it to any accent you want is just not going to happen. What would be useful is for BIS to introduce the ability to easily install mods that allow local language voice files to substitute the default set that OFP comes with. This would serve 2 functions: 1. Local players could set East, West and/or Resistance sides to use different VOICE PBO files, for example. 2. Missions with country specific addons could require the install of that country's VOICE PBO mod file. A Crocidile Dundy voice mod? Why not! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
