Oops send the other email on accident ;-)
For my Awakening mod I have an awakening_sounds.txt that looks like this:
"aw_voice_gman_8"
{
"channel" "CHAN_voice"
"volume" "1"
"soundlevel" "SNDLVL_TALKING"
"wave" "*/awvoices/Gman 8.wav"
}
"aw_voice_tess01"
{
"channel" "CHAN_voice"
"volume" "1"
"soundlevel" "SNDLVL_TALKING"
"wave" "*/awvoices/Tess01_what_who.wav"
}
The paths for wave are from the sounds folder.
And in my game_sounds_manifest.txt I added:
"precache_file" "scripts/awakening_sounds.txt"
Both files are in the scripts folder.
I remember something about writing the sentences phoneticly to help the tool
generate the lipsync I think hat was in the choreography tool itself.
I can't remember if I did anything else, it was for Ep1 and its been 3.5
years ago :-)
