Thanks for all your hard work and everyone contributing! The sprites for different angles of rotation are something I didn't think was possible but add so much! The clothing damage and posing are superb. I totally agree with the aftermath being important.
Happy you like it :)
I can't help but be intrigued by the voice discussion, I've tried over the years to extract SR3 and SR4 voice files with little success.
Would anyone be willing to give me a few pointers, I've voice files from other games if anyone wants to trade
The process is a bit clunky, but doable if you're not afraid of the command line or some batch writing.
Here is a good overview:
[Guide] How to extract radio station musics from Saints Row The Third – ~Zero WordPress
Their focus is on the radiostation music, but the speech samples work the same, just use the "voices" pack instead of the sound pack.
- Download the tools listed
- copy your voice file to somewhere else. For convenience a folder with a short path.
- drag & drop your voice file on the bnk_pc_extractor. This will pull out all files in the pack. (several hundred thousands!)
- now you should have .wav files, but they need further processing to become usable.
- ww2ogg.exe and revorb.exe strip the metadata (sub titles, timings, etc) from the .wav and generates an usable .ogg file.
To do this for all files, create an .bat file in the folder with the samples:
for %%a in (*.WAV) do ww2ogg.exe "%%a"
for %%a in (*.OGG) do revorb.exe "%%a"
del *.dmav
This mass converts the files and deletes the metadata textfiles. This whole converting can take some time.
