This has probably been asked 1000 times, but...

[Lizard Of Oz]

How would one go about creating custom voice taunts and messages for U.T.?

You can import .wav files into the UT sound files (.uax).
This is done in UnrealEd under SoundFX in the browser. Open up a voicepack and import the desired files. Of course the server and anyone playing on it would have to have the modified file to make it work. I have not tried to modify the taunts but I think this is the way to do it.

 

[Lizard Of Oz]

Let me refine that question.

I know how to add sounds (wav's) to the sound packs. I even know how I could create a new (original) sound pack (uax). I know that the server and other players must also have the same sound pack.

What I don't know and asking you guys is:

How do I make it availible in the Taunt/Team meassage system? Either through hot-keys and/or the GUI, and/or the in-game Message system (v key)?

Yes this question has been aske thousands of times already (BY ME /~unreal/ubb/html/wink.gif ) but I'm still no closer to the answer.

I have found a man who has implimented Custom VoicePacks to the extent that when you play on his derver ("FogHat Wooter Clan" or some such) the text of the voices Duke and Termiator are displayed too yust like the in game voices. I will post any answer I get from him about this.

In the mean time I have a quastion for you.
How do you creats .uax files from scratch? I know how to alter them using UnrealED but creating them from scratch would be nice /~unreal/ubb/html/wink.gif

I'm on the right track but have yet been able to get it to work. I believe the problem may be with the wav files I'm using, but I'm not sure.

This is what I've done.

I start UnrealEd go to "SoundsFX" and choose (for example) "Male1Voice" I import my .wav files, and then delete the orignal sounds in the list. I then save it using a unique file name.

Problem: I have been unable to get the sounds to play in UnrealEd. In fact some times it crashes the Editor. Why? Does UnrealEd require that the .wav's be of a certain type
(sample rate, sample size)?

I too will post my progress here.

Okay I found a tutorial. I haven't tried it yet. but here's a couple of links.

UT-Voices.doc MS-Word format.

voices.txt Plain Text format.

"There is no point in tip-toeing through life to get safely to death."

In challengevoicepack.uc, it hardcodes (pretty much, at least) the commands.

 

[Lizard Of Oz]

Okay, I've tried and looks good until I actually get in the game. I cannot access my sounds.

I beleive this either because I am to not compiling a complete pakage (only 12 sounds)or because the way I'm namingthe various "packages."

Still working.

What does
"In challengevoicepack.uc, it hardcodes (pretty much, at least) the commands." mean exaxtly?

I have been having the same problem you see.

 

[Lizard Of Oz]

Okay here's the finale version. (I Hope)

After I squash any bugs that pop up, I,ll
write a tutorial for those who wish to make
thier own voice packs.

FULL METAL JACKET VOICE PACK (FULL VERSION).

It will install itself OVER the old version. (if you had it)

Have fun.


[MOD INFO]

Version 100

These are a few choice sounds from the movie "Full Metal Jacket."

!*!*!*!*!*THEY ARE VERY MATURE IN NATURE*!*!*!*!*!*!


[INSTALLATION]

Place the FMJVoice.umod file ANYWHERE on your system and double-click the icon.

If double-clicking the .umod launches the 'Open With' dialog box, your file associations for
UT are not set up. To work around this either:

Re-install UT to create the file associations.

OR

Copy the umod into your X:\UnrealTournament\system folder and run the installer
from the Start>Run dialog as follows: "X:\UnrealTournament\system\setup install
modname.umod"


[HOW TO USE]

Choose the "Player Setup" menu. Choose any MALE class. Choose FMJVoice.

Go to OPTION-->PREFERENCE-->INPUT-->SPEECH BINDER and select "taunts"
then pick and chosse your keys and the specific taunt.

[BUGS]

Lots, I'm sure. Send Email to FMJBugs@lizardo.net to report any problems. I will
ignor "How do I install it?" and "How do I use umod's?" types of questions. See above.
