what is the max number of voice packs i can use?
and how do i set up a voice so i can use it during character creation ingame?
I'm not sure about the first, but the second, fortunately, is pretty easy. You just need assign the voice pack to a character in FFEdit, and then I think you check "campaign only." That last bit might not be correct though. Either way, once you have a built-in with the voice pack, it will show up, under their name, in the voice list.
that's what i thought, but the voices only show up about half the time, which is why i asked about the max number, i'm thinking maybe i have too many.
I was having that problem, and it turned out that some of the voices had the same "designation" or whatever. I noticed it on Superman; I think the first two letters for his voice were SM or SN, and something else already had that. I changed the designation and the installation worked fine. I did a spreadsheet to keep track of what designation each character/voice had.
spreadsheet? i want your spreadsheet...
Check out VPMAX, the way they organize voices helped me with the DCUG.
