Well, I know we are redo'ing a lot of the voices thru Silgrad and such, and was jw if anyone knew how that was going, as well as what our standing on this would be?

In what sense are they re-doing?

Was it a sound quality problem, or the voice acting itself that was the problem?

From what I understand, there were 2 reasons why

1) The Original voices were overused (Dark Elves, High Elves, and Wood Elves same voices, I think others too, those are just the ones that stick out), and they didn't follow the 'previous' voices for it (Dunmer dont have that raspy voice like they've been smoking for 50 years Tongue )

2) They will be adding in massive dialogue w/ the mods, and need some new voicing to go with it. I had heard that they wanted to completely redo all the voicing to suit this so that it would all be smooth and such.

I had also heard it would be more realistic (Voices being split between age (?) and class, etc)

That last point is an excellent idea. Hopefully they'll be able to do away with immersion-destroying abominations like that infamous beggar-woman in Imperial City (the one who goes from having an "aharr me hearties" pirate cockney to an upper-class British accent then back again in the space of one sentence. I still can't believe they actually did that :lmao: )

And you're quite right - we should bring back the chain-smoking Dunmer! :D

Speaking of accents - SACarriow has let it be known that Silgrad can use any and all voice actors. I would like to work with Silgrad on this, since we may need their help down the road to get our mod voiced.

I've already volunteered for voice work and did a quick vocal test for them. Any other volunteers?

I've got a microphone! Where do I sign up? I can do a posh High-Elf style accent but I'm afraid that's pretty much it as far as my acting range is concerned...

PM SACarrow here at Silgrad and tell him I passed the word along to you. :) He'll be happy to hear from you and he is quite inventive with voices - you might actually have more felxibility then you think.

Also, the core team for High Rock is using Skype to co-ordinate so a microphone is useful that way too. You can voice chat with SACarrow this way as well, if you and he like.

Ok. I've got quite a lot to do at the moment, but perhaps soon...
