Hey, stormy! :thumbsup:

Need a custom voice... for the player   or what is the deal?

Player voices are set by the main-player setting menu, yanno, the one in the upper-left corner of the main screen  

Or ya can set in using "Description.ext" files which basically contain all the basic player (and group-) defines for a mission; the *ext file is put in the same fodler as the mission.sqm file (sö: thats the "NameOfMission" folder).

whats the prob matey  


if its about *ext files - visit the "Editors Depot" and read a tute, m8 :thumbsup:

When you install Red Hammer a PBO called RHvoices is installed into your addons folder, as well as an updated stringtable and description.

So you'll need to create an identity for a player. (i presume you know about creating identitys, they were used in the BIS campaigns to create characters like David Amrstrong, Victor Troska, yada, yada.)  And then give him a russian voice. The possible names are :

• Nikolai
• Vitaliy
• Sergey
• Oleg
• Ruslan
• Aleksei
• Andrei
• Boris
• Georgiy
• Vadim
• Vladimir

Ace,

How do you create an identiy?

Ace! I didnt understand anything what you said. Try agen so all can understand it?

Hello Storm

I think what ACE was trying to say was this:

First in the init line of your player unit type this setidentity yourname

Next create a description file (just a text file called description.ext). The contents of the file should look like this ->

Code: [Select]

class CfgIdentities
{

   class yourname
   {
      name = "Your name";
      face = "Face52";
      glasses = "none";
      speaker = "andrei";
      pitch = 1.00;
   };

};
Obviously you can replace yourname with whatever you like. The section in the description name = "Your name"; controls how your name looks in radio messages, again you can set it to whatever suits you.

As ACE said you can change the speaker to any of the names he listed, and you can also change the pitch of the voice, the units face and whether the unit wears glasses or sunglasses.

If you already have a description.ext the just add the cfgidentities into that.

Cheers

But where to add it? I didnt understand

I have a tute in the pending bit of the editors depot. check that

[macguba]

lol this is one of the best threads I have seen in a while for nobody really understanding what is going on ;D

Storm-Dk, are you familiar with the file description.ext?  Are you trying to give the player a Russian sounding voice?

[Storm-Dk]

Yes but its at all time. not just in a mission. I want to have the russian sounds in the menu calld Player. thats all!

[Ace]

thats a doozey.
it is very possible, i have seen it been done. you have to edit the config and stringtable files.

not easy and I would strongly recomend against it. But if you do decide you still want a russian voice you'll have to ask soemone else as my knowledge doesn't extend into game encoding.

Just remember to backup whatever you edit

This should work-
Edit your UserInfo.cfg with a text editor (/OFPDir/Users/YourName/UserInfo.cfg), find class Identity and change speaker name to one of the names Ace posted earlier.

This is from my UserInfo.cfg-

Code: [Select]

class Identity
{
   face="Custom";
   glasses="None";
   speaker="John"; **change the name here
   pitch=1.132091;
   squad="http://www.users.bigpond.com/deeink/squad/squad.xml";
};However if you look at your profile ingame it will probably be reset to one of the american voices...
