No no I meant literally record a few and post them. Do it in low quality WAV format please. Also this language, is it a native african language? Excuse my ignorance on this matter.

'afrikaans' is not really native... the dutch brought their language with them to South Africa during the colonization of course, and it developed into its own 'style' to become one of the official languages of South Africa later on. So today you would be able to call it 'native'.
You can partially (not fully) compare it to the different styles of english spoken in England, USA and Australia. And these differ a lot actually.

Please don't add more voices, some players with slow connections already refuse to play on the servers with the 1st voice pack

Sadly, most people by now should have moved to high speed internet connection. In fact I hold the belief the reason its still slightly more expensive than dial up is because people are still using dial up. More people using High speed internet would result in more competition among the high speed companys which means lower prices.
People who use dial up can download the voicepacks from the forums or combatmaps overnight either which way. The voicepacks are not that large in size anyway, about the same size as a custom map. Should we drop custom maps now too since dial ups would have to download them?
I dont know what other server is using the voicepacks but on GD we have high speed redirect. It takes less than 10 seconds to download the voicepack with cable. It shouldnt take more than a few minutes on dial up. If a perticular server is that concerned about the few dial up players online then they have the option not to use it. But I mainly made this voicepack for the GD server and for whoever wanted to use it. GD will always be geared towards cool custom mutators and custom maps. Dial ups beware!

Dude, "broadband" is not available everywhere, and when it is it may be a *lot* more expensive.{GD}NTKB said:

About voices. I prefer much more english spoken with stranger accent than native langage.
My argument on that, it is most people understand english and it still add some world played effect.
Freon: I know you already complain about size of download, but could you add the yurch nade on VeGA please ?

here we have DSL light where its like faster than isdn, but not as fast as your standard 1.5mbs max DSL line for the same price as dialup now, people dont switch do to "inconveniance" and i want to slap these lazy bastards every time they are "inconcenianced" by their damned dialup-
well if u dont make the entire pack, can ya at least finish off my arab voice, i wanna use it on GD!

I understand your concern Freon, and its well put, however I doubt Vega server will be using the second voicepack, since im sure Vega mostly wanted the french voices... Now if I just added 3 new french voices my plan will... never mind
j/kBut seriously I doubt the second pack will get play anywhere except {GD} and for private use. I dont think you need be so concerned.

If we can get a Dutch actor sure. I dont see why not. The more variety of voices the better IMO. I dont care if it jumps to 10MB zipped. I want to truely internationalize the game. This is the first step towards doing that. Now if we could only add more faces to the game... Mwuhahha my next project
Im thinking some bearded russian faces and some oriental faces.

Faces are no problem at all... all you need is a texture pack and an int file. Setup is explained in the default faces int files.
