Voicing a mod using VA Synth

[Kzuuual]

 

Hi.

 

First things first. I'm a noob modder who just got into business. So some of the things I say might not be very easy to understand.

 

I'm currently voicing the mod 'Commonwealth Slavers' by JB.

Although everything was an endless wave of trials & errors, I finally somehow managed to get the voices to come out in-game.

 

However, the problem now is this.

The dialogues progress way to faster than it used to be.

In vanilla, when you listen to NPCs conversating, you can see that there are slight second delays between line, allowing us to better hear the them.

 

Like the video below

Now, what I voices, goes like this. Note that voices sound like they are played simultaneously, as if sentences are tied together.

This is the unvoiced state, for your comparison.

Would it be possible to add some delay between the lines? 

If so, how would that be achieved?

 

I thank you all who took precious time to view this topic.  

 

Sorry for my bad english. I'm not a native speaker.

You have to physically add the delay before and after the dialogue in a wav editor.

0.2 seconds before and after each wav, using a batch editor, should work best.

Ah, I see.

 

Would that be possible to do with just VA Synth tho?

I don't know. I haven't used it.

I used wavosaur https://www.wavosaur.com/ to manually edit each line for Ivy.

Ah thanks!

This project is becoming even larger than I originally anticipated.. ? 

Oh and method regarding using VA Synth, that sadly didn't work

And woah, 

 

Just saw your mod for the first time, and how did you produce such awesome, authentic voices?

They were just fantastic!

Und woah, 

 

Ich habe deine Mod gerade zum ersten Mal gesehen und wie hast du so tolle, authentische Stimmen produziert?

Sie waren einfach fantastisch!

Danke schon, Brother.

Ooohh, now I understand what you meant. 

 

 

I thought that the actors spoke too fast, that they were not understood (like when some actors say "OK", or other short words). Short words do not go well with this VA Synth. 

 

What you are saying is inevitable. The same thing happens in Nuka Ride. There is a scene where two characters walk to the Dry Rock Gulch saloon, with one of them telling a story. This story is "made" to last just long enough for it to end when they enter the saloon. 

 

With the voices, the story ends halfway through xD 

 

The same thing will happen with CS. I don't think you should worry about that.

Can you please give the voicing of mod 'Commonwealth Slavers' by JB?

[SimPlayer68Plus1]

Yeah, I`d like the voice mod too. Sounds good!

[PixnMinx]

I too would love to see this ?

A different voice generated called FallTalk just released the other day. Haven't messed with it too much but it seems pretty good. It does Text-to-Speech as well as Speech-to-Speech. I'm not affiliated in any way, just thought it would be good to share.

 

Edit: Just messed with it. Setup is pretty easy. The number of trained voices is limited, but what is there works great! And what isn't trained, you can still generate audio of using the in-game files as reference
