Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
Here is the script that max_torch was asking for, for the English version of DiD. Could everyone let me know what voices they want to do before we start so we don't double-record any of the sounds.
There are 3 main roles to voice act in the first scenario.
Malin - Of course the primary is Malin the main character (his text I have show below in pink).
Drogan - The second is the village leader who is not in future scenarios until much later (colored in green).
Narrator - The third is the narrator who plays a minor role throughout the rest of the campaign, he/she is shown in blue.
Also there is a soldier who says 1 line.

Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
Note the soldier's line is very new; it's not in 1.14.5. (And it's possible it would change again before 1.14.6, though I don't think that's likely.) The "Begone" line is also different between 1.14.5 and latest 1.14.
Also, do you intend to read the objectives (at scenario start and whenever [show_objectives] is used in events)? Just curious.

Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
Hey guys. Sorry I didn't see this thread. If you have any minor roles available I'd love to join you all.
Happy new year!

Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
Thank you! Yes absolutely, we haven't gotten very far yet so just let us know how much ur interested in doing (perhaps u could be the narrator?)theuncertainman wrote: ↑December 31st, 2018, 8:21 pm Hey guys.

We did not just because I didn't see it as necessary. Do you think it would be worth doing?
Yes that is true. Could you post a link to the new lines? We can just record the new versions instead of the old lines.

Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
I don't know, really. I haven't played AToTB+voice. I just suggested it because the objectives is part of the text the player has to read in every scenario, so it seemed natural to read it. In some scenarios the objectives have important information ("Kill no units of Drogan's side", "Get the book back to Malin's castle"), reading it out will make it harder to miss. Ultimately, will the player's experience be enhanced by having the objectives (or parts of them) read out?
These are the new lines in latest 1.14:

Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
i just saw the latest updates to the thread. can we let my sister do the narrators voice?
i can voice the soldier
@uncertainman - tell us which lines you want to voice
@thegnat - can you tell us if the repository at github is ready so that sound files can be uploaded straight to the repository
id like to do all the ghosts/wraiths in the campaign because im planning to give them an eery ethereal effect similar to the banshees in warcraft
i can voice the soldier

Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
Yeah definitely.
I am happy for you to do that if no one else has a problem.
Other important roles include the Dark Sorcerer Darken Volk and the main character Malin, both have fairly many lines.
Yes I will post a link as soon as its done!

Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
I'd be happy to audition for Malin. I won't be able to record till next week, sadly.
Edit:
There didn't seem to be too many lines for Malin in scenario 1. How many scenarios are there?
I'll leave it up to you to decide who I should voice.
God I'm hungover.

Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
I could be the voice of Drogan if you like. At least I don't have to switch between all roles now.

Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
theuncertainman you were actually my personal preference for voicing Malin. There are 12 scenarios. Malin is the main character, the star of the show!theuncertainman wrote: ↑January 1st, 2019, 11:31 am I'd be happy to audition for Malin. I won't be able to record till next week, sadly.

we understand that everyone has lives outside of wesnoth therefore we will exercise patience.
i will edit the first post in this thread to summarize the assignment of roles
Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
Awesome ! Yes don't worry about that I still haven't gotten the git-hub project up so I can sympathizetheuncertainman wrote: ↑January 1st, 2019, 11:31 am I'd be happy to audition for Malin. I won't be able to record till next week, sadly.
As max_torch said there are 12 scenarios so it is a bit longer than A Tale of Two Brothers but we are not in any hurry. This is more like a 3 month project then a 1 week onetheuncertainman wrote: ↑January 1st, 2019, 11:31 am There didn't seem to be too many lines for Malin in scenario 1. How many scenarios are there?
If of course you don't think you will have enough time to do it that is fine, but if you want to the jobs yours
Yes that would be great!

Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
Yeah, 3 month is realistic, especially with several protagonists / speakers. Note that Malin returns as a slightly older version of himself, so we could theoretically change the voice, when he gets older and more experienced (i tried to do this in my german quick run last year). But Malin is still one of the main characters in this add-on and has tons of dialogue.

Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
Malin has several versions: young, old, and lich. https://github.com/wesnoth/wesnoth/tree ... /portraits
Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
True, I admit I haven't spoken the german part of the lich yet.

Re: Roll call for voice acting of Descent into Darkness
Do we want to voice over the objectives? If so the person who does the narrator could potentially do that?
