Voiceset Change NPC?

Unread post by Eclypticon »

Is this even possible to do without corrupting a bic file? If so, is there any chance of getting this added?

I would support this as I don't want to rcr one of my characters simply because he shouts like a barbarian when he is a rogue.

Luna did it before. Without issues.

I asked about this back in July, as Lockonnow asked me about it. What I got back from the devs was that it was in theory possible, but that they'd need to look into it.

No updates since then but I can bump the thread if there's a lot of demand for this, especially after we take away 100% RCRs.

I've asked and heard it corrupts the character file.

We can change voicesets server-side, yes. But that requires Endelyon or myself to manually edit the .bic. An NPC would be much easier on us, but if it proves impossible after the RCR is scaled back this is always another possibility if you pick a voiceset you just can't stand after a while.

I think the biggest offender is "matron mother" who calls out for Shar to save her from the spider queen, as the voiceset is based off of Viconia.

BG1 and BG2. Viconia was in NWN1? Never knew. No, but what I mean is that the voiceset is called matron mother, and so makes people think "Oh it's a Lolthite voiceset" only to find out its actually a voiceset of a priestess of Shar.

This would be cool. I would also love to see more voice sets implemented. Maybe we can get the players from Acquisition Inc, and critical role to help out :)
