^ As far as I know we haven't heard from Fddlrnthrf since the post above, so I can't say whether Dunmer voices are going to get done or not. I don't know why every volounteering voice artist who comes here end up not contributing... maybe they don't have sufficient knowledge of the Construction Set to do it, or maybe there's just too much work to do apart from just recording the lines for them to do it. I'm not directing that to Fddlrnthrf in particular but generally to like half a dozen voice artists who volounteered before.
Now some might wonder, can't a voice artist lend their services to us without having to do all the boring stuff? And the answer is no, they can't. I'd rather be modelling than converting wav's and generating lip files and renaming a hundred files for hours on end, and I'm sure that goes for everyone else as well (albeit modelling may not be their favourite pastime). That part of the process has to be done by the voice artist himself, perhaps especially since it's much easier to finalize the mp3's and lip files on the fly than doing it afterwards.
But, to end on a positive note. A person already in the team might be voicing Bretons and Wood elves in our mod - and perhaps also Khajiits and Argonians! Which bodes very well for Silgrad Tower v3.0 :bananarock:
