Voice acting request:


Bikerdude

Recommended Posts

For anyone interested, I'll happily do some vocal work for those who want it. I did the voice on SeriousToni's fantastic mission if anyone is looking for an idea of what I sound like. I keep meaning to do a sample set for TDM but never seem to get around to it. (I hav e some time this weekend, maybe I'll do it then)

We started something like that, but it isn't well maintained: http://forums.thedarkmod.com/topic/12556-voice-actors/

I guess I should have been looking after that thread, doh. Springs can you clean up the thread please, or can you give me author access to that thread so I can clean it myself?

 

I have cleaned up and edited the first post.

You mentioned the campaign, Biker. I assume you are referring to the Crucible campaign. What kind of characters might need doing there? I'm interested.

Can you guys drop a post over on the available voice actors thread if that's ok?

I'm expecting it might change soon -- because indications leave me supposing that "Deceptive Shadows" is the mission I made my recordings for; and SH says that'll be out tomorrow -- but, as of yet, I can't even put anything down in the first info-box, "Experience"!

Does this mean we might hear a guard walk past, in some future update, muttering about 'how it's just a thing'? :laugh:

You will always hear this guard because he never stops talking :P

 

OMG! It would be so great vocal set. The Talker. This is what it would sound like when he is walking by you:

"...why do I always have to be the one who patrols this stupid route the other guys get the better ones here I am again don't know how many times walking this same stupid route I'm hungry the uniform is too tight my legs hurt I'm hungry the boss is always griping about guard duty I'm a guard not a wizard I can't be in all places at the same time stupid taffer at least the missus is sometimes nice enough to share some fun but here I am walking all alone...

Biker or someone... over on darkfate.ru, in the "Deceptive Shadows" thread, Shadowhide is asked if this mission has Russian translation. He had to reply that there is no Russian version. This is not good. But it is good in that I had been thinking earlier that this would maybe be a good and fun and useful opportunity to try something: I would love to, if given a phonetic-translation script, do my vocals in Russian! If the rest of us non-Russian speakers would do the same it seems it would be really cool to do so. As you can see there are only maybe 2 or 3 non-Russian speaking people amongst the voice actors. Hopefully we could pull it off? And as for the rest -- the other voices and texts -- since (I assume) Shadowhide is Russian, he would have no trouble translating and voicing those bits...

 

I really think it would be great to have this mission serve the Russian FM "community" well, as the FM author is the pioneer of Russian built TDM FMs; and, of course, despite his (fatigued-based? usual? faux-nihilist? ;)) claims stating otherwise, is going to continue to be Russia's most prolific FM author.

 

Copied from the "Deceptive Shadows" announce thread in hopes that it will be seen here by Biker (or The Someone).

Yew kood speek rushun tho ...givun uh fonetik skripped! :D

Please no phonemic scripts.. I recently played a game called Company Of Heroes (thanks to a kind forum member here) in english. The germans speak "german" (I loled everytime I clicked a german soldier). (Nevertheless the game is awesome, but the german voice acting is just funny)

So, because something doesn't work perfectly on the one occasion you've experienced it in... it should never be tried again? No more slave rebellions. No more medicinal therapies. No more calendars. No more expeditions...

 

Why are some people determined to nix and nip attempts to translate missions?

 

This won't affect you at all. I think it would be worthwhile, doable and fun. And it will not affect you at all, SeriousToni. Lighten up! You might even get a "lol" out of it. And the guy who was hoping for a Russian version might, on the other hand, appreciate it.

No it's not that I don't want to have this again after playing one game that were used phonemic scripts in and it ended up in a lol orgie, but it is because each movie / series / game I saw / palyed this was the case. So I guess if someone who doesn't speak this language as his mothertongue it is always silly to do, yes. And I guess bikerdude doesn't have lived his life in russia :P

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?

      Looks like the "Reverse April Fools" releases were too well hidden. Darkfate still hasn't acknowledge all the new releases. Did you play any of the new April Fools missions?

      Hope everyone has the blessing of undying motivation for "The Dark Mod 15th Anniversary Contest". Can't wait to see the many magnificent missions you all may have planned. Good luck, with an Ace!
