Title: its gone
Post by: PrestonUie on June 17, 2019, 06:38:24 AM
so i had to re download steam because i messed something up and needed a fresh start on  :ffvstr: and when i was reinstalling the voices i noticed a big problem Voice_of_alien was gone. let me be clear its in  the folder, its in the speech notes but in game its gone, its just not there. so lets play the game WHAT DID PRESTON DO THIS TIME!!! and how do i fix it?

now honestly i was never gonna use that voice because its just sound effects but its got me worried about what else isn't there

Well, if you reinstalled  :ffvstr:, then you'll need to re-merge the voicepack dats.  I would think all of your voices would stop working, actually.

The physical voice files are still there, but reinstalling the game replaced the dats with the vanilla ones.  You'll just need to re-do that part of VPMAX installation.  No worries, easy fix.

Did you:
1) Add a space at the beginning of every line in your txt?
2) then copy that into your lang/english/speech.txt?
3) Generate your language dats with FFEdit?

Ohh!  You don't see an option to select the voice in the game, right?

You'll have to create a character and give it that voice ID.  Open FFEdit, go to the Characters tab, copy El Diablo or somebody, name it something short-ish with no special characters, and don't use any spaces.  Then give the new character your voice ID.  I don't remember if you have to create a Template as well, but may as well do that just to be on the safe side.  Click on the Template tab, find the same character you copied (just for simplicity sake), and copy and rename it to match exactly.  Done.

Now that ID should show up in the character creator under whatever name you gave your character.

Sorry, I work almost entirely with built-in characters as a modder, so I don't think about that end of it very much.

Try switching the ID.  I'm not 100% sure FF will recognize the ?.

I'm pretty sure it's letters & numbers only, no special characters, especially not ? * . or /, since the first two are wildcard characters and the last two are used for file name/path designations.

Hooray!  Haha, you've just created some FF content.  It can be a maddening process at times, but it is also a lot of fun.  Great work!
