Larian Studios Forums Beyond Divinity (English) General Mod to change DK's voice

I plan on editing the Death Night's voice by filtering it through various audio effects in my studio until I achieve the desired effect.

However it doesn't look like it's going to be so easy to actually get at the voice audio files. I found voice.cmp here:
C:\Program Files\LarianStudios\Beyond Divinity Demo\Acts\Act1\Voice

And then there are .dlg and .gsm files which describe all the voices that can be heard throughout the demo.

So does anyone know how to edit/extract from these files?

i made a little tool that can extract the 'ogg' files.

http://zerot.nhlrebel.com/divinity/cmpextract.exe

it will extract the sounds in the current dir.

usage:
cmpextract <file.cmp>

the importer can take a while, because i still don't know the complete file-layout.

cool.


welcome to the forums! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />

I think they should bring in the guy that does the voice of the futurama charater Morbo.

IMHO Morbo would make a great DK:

DK looks down on humans
Morbo => puny human number one puny human number 2...
DK want to destroy things
Morbo (talking about his wife)=> I WILL DESTROY HER
DK planning to conquer the <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> universe with all the forces of evil
Morbo => Humans have weak knees my race will find this interesting MUHAHAHAHA

So I think Morbo would make a great DK. Probably not going to happing But thats what I tought how the voice of the DK would sound like before the demo was released.

Just listen to this sample (first quote.). I just love the emotion in the voice, the sarcasm,...

I had something like this in mind on how the DK would use emotion and intonation the voice needs to change a bit offcource (a bit deeper,...).

Maybe he should sound like bender. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

DK:What the hell do you want skinbag?

what about lrrr <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" />. But the DK realy needs more emotion in his voice.

what about Mom???

Maybe it has something to do with that you don't know what the DK is. You can't give him/her/it a female voice because that would spoil it. Mabye this is why the voice is so neutral.

@lews: <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/offtopic.gif" alt="" /> no not mom that too evil <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" />. Did you notice that the current voice of the DK could very well be from the "neutral zone".

mmhmm. i think the DK's voice is perfect. but if enough people think its bad, then chang eit, and i think it would also be a good voiuce for the main character.

Personally I thought the female mage's voice in DD was terrible. Don't change the DK's voice! I loved how you can make characters fat in the demo too.

The <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beyond.gif" alt="" /> demo is suffering from a bit of over-hype IMO. People expected it to be perfect. Nothing is perfect. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

except me of course.. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />

Don't get me wrong I realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy realy like the demo. I just nitpick on the little faults so that they can correct them.

lol. aint that nice of you! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

I find it really sorry that everybody is only saying bad things about the demo. And totally overreacting, for example making a lot of threads about how awfull the DK voice is. And I even find the Dk voice rather good, It was as I expected it was going to be.

So to change the hype of "only say bad things about the demo: I love your demo Larians, both <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> up!

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />

My initial review was full of praise about the demo. I think it's far better then <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> diffirent but also better. It's just that if you make a remark about something you don't like theire is a small chance thet they will change it in the final game. Like lar said theire is going to be a select all keyboard button in the full game. If no one made that remark it might not have happend. I only wish to make the game from "near perfection" to "total perfection". The discussion about the combat for instance. I think we get a bad first look of the combat system because the party is just 2 chars. i can imagine that when theire are 6 party members in the game you would welcome a slower pace combat. I have no problems with the combat system I like it <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />.

I don't have a problem with the voices myself - they seem fine to me. Not Oscar quality, but good enough...

I like the combat too, this time it's all more tactical but not to hard. Very good balanced fighting system.

Hi, please keep this thread on topic, I'd really like to do make a mod for the DK's voice, unless I discover that it takes a ridiculous amount of time. It will be available for those who want to download it. If you like the voice the way it is, feel free to not add this mod <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

But there plenty of other threads to debate the pros and cons of the demo.

I think I woke my upstairs neighbours <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />

Muze: good luck! You might be our first modder <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />.
And since many people (not me, though) do not like DK's voice, I am sure you'll have a smashing number of downloads.
