Well it's been a bit over a month since I let Sigma out into the wild. I've started working on the campaign with megadroid, which leads me to this post. As those that played the last release might notice... many voiceovers are missing, particularly for the hero characters. Since I've not had much luck finding them on other sites, I figured a good place to look might be here on MSFC. If anyone is interested in doing voiceovers for Sigma I have a list here of what's needed:


V.R.A. Lines

The V.R.A. are all human, so you can use any accent you see fit for them.

m = male voice
f = female voice

V.R.A. Units

Primary HQ ( m )

Selected: "Everything is under control here."
Selected 2: "Fleet is ready for command."
HPcritical: *static* "We need to evac I repeat we need to evac!"
EnemyDetected: Enemy ships have been sighted."
Add-on: "Expanding base of operations."
Constructing unit: "Constructing Utility mainframe, command."
Decommission: "We'll clear the base commander."[/color]

Utility Chassis, Constructor, Mining ship, and Tug (m or f)
A nice and relaxed voice should work here. I want the Utility ships to sound like a true common worker is in command.

Selected: "Ready for orders HQ"
Selected2: "What needs to be constructed?"
Selected3: "What supply line do we follow today HQ?"
Selected4: "Salvage ship on standbye."
Selected5: "Any work for us HQ?"
Move: "Roger that HQ."
Move2: "Confirmed HQ."
Build: "Give us the materials and we'll put it together no problem."
Harvest: "The resources will be yours in no time HQ."
Tow ship: "We'll bring it back to base, HQ."
Repair: "We're taking fire HQ, requesting repairs."
HPcritical : "Uhhh HQ... we are screwed..."

Mining Base (m or f )
No particular voice style here, feel free to experiment

Selected: "Hello HQ."
Selected2: "Resources are scheduled to arrive sir."
Selected3: "We'll have processed resources ready in no time, HQ."
Add-on: "Expanding the Docking Bays."

Shipyard Mainframe (m or f )
No particular voice style here, feel free to experiment

Selected: "Good day HQ."
Selected2: "What shall we add to the fleet today?"
Build: "Order confirmed."
Add-on: "Expanding Production."


Destroyer (Bottlenose, Orca, and Urchin) (m or f)
An upbeat and "in-your-face" attitude would work well for the destroyer ships

Selected: "We're here HQ."
Selected2: "What needs to be done?"
Selected3: "Missiles on standby."
Selected4: "Artillery on standby."
Move: "Acknowledged HQ."
Move2: "On our way."
Attack: "Tracking Target."
Attack2: "They'll never know what hit them."
Repair: "Get this s**** pile back to base!"
HPcritical: "Oh ****..."
EnemyDetected: "Here come the aliens..."

Cruiser (Owl Missile Frigate, Peregrine Heavy Cruiser, and Albatross Carrier) (m or f )
A voice that sounds like your average military commander should work fine.

Selected: "Cruiser operational HQ."
Selected2: "All systems at the ready."
Selected3: "Missile bays loaded."
Selected4: "Fighter bays prepped and ready HQ."
Move: "Confirmed HQ."
Move2: "Roger that."
Attack: "Open fire!"
Attack2 "Target confirmed!"
Repair: "We need repairs immediately."
HPcritical: "We are taking a beating out here HQ!"
EnemyDetected: "Hostiles in-bound HQ..."

Battleship ( Rex, Raptor, and Pterodactyl) (m or f, preferably male)
A powerful and charismatic attitude would work well here

Selected: "I hear you HQ."
Selected2: "What are your orders?"
Move: "We'll be there momentarilly HQ."
Move2: "Another day in the V.R.A."
Attack: "So someone want's to play..."
Attack2: "They'll be dust in no time."
Repair: "We need to reload HQ."
HPcritical: "They've managed to beat us down HQ, requesting retreat!"
EnemyDetected: "Another fool enters the game."[/color]


Badger Science Vessel (m or f)

Selected: "Ready for recon duty HQ."
Selected2: "The enemy could be nearbye..."
Move: "Charting sector."
Move2: "We'll find the hostiles HQ."
Repair: "Looks like it's break time boys."
HPcritical: "They've found us HQ! We must retreat!"
EnemyDetected: "There's your target HQ."

Defense Grid Pylon (m or f)

Selected: "Defending the V.R.A."
Selected2: "Are they comming in for an attack HQ?"
Attack: "All hands focus fire!"
Attack2: "Don't let them through! Defend the base!"
Add-on: "The more guns the better."



V.R.A. Characters (If you wish to do the voices for main characters, please consider that I'll need to be in regular contact with you as the campaign progresses)

General Geon E. Mokbel (m)
The General needs to have a strong and charismatic voice. I don't want a stereotypical "tough-as-nails" grunt however.

Selected: "This is the General."
Selected2: "Give me the news."
Move: "Roger that."
Move2: "Confirmed"
Attack: "Let's show them who's boss."
Attack2: "They think they can take on my broadsides?"
Repair: "Where are the mechanics when you need them...?"
HPcritical: "Retreat? You gotta be kidding me..."
EnemyDetected: "Looks like this fight's about to get serious."
Green Alert: "Hold your fire"
Yellow Alert: "Keep those guns at the ready"
Red Alert: "I want every missile we got up their **** asses"

Admiral L. Willow (female)

Selected: "What needs to be done, HQ?"
Selected: "Admiral Luroy Willow standing by."
Move: "Let's get moving."
Move2: "Moving to target location, HQ."
Attack: "Looks like we are in agreement."
Attack2: "The insurgents will pay."
Repair: "Do we finally get some shore leave, HQ?"
HPcritical: "HQ we can't take many more hits!"
EnemyDetected: "Enemies sighted HQ, what are your orders?"
Green Alert: "Hold all fire"
Yellow Alert: "Things could go to hell very quick..."
Red Alert: "Unleash fire on sight"
Selected: "This is the Admiral speaking."
Selected: "Ready to bring chaos to order."
Move: "I wanted to go there anyway."
Move2: "I'll be there eventually."
Attack: "Those that do not join us will die."
Attack2: "Target locked, fire at will!"
Repair: "A vacation to the shipyards, oh boy..."
HPcritical: "I would say now is a good time to make a run for it..."
EnemyDetected: "Perhaps we can recruit these hostiles?"
Green Alert: "Perhaps they'll want to talk today"
Yellow Alert: "Keep our weapons hot boys"
Red Alert: "Let's show them who's got the bigger ship"
Capture1: "Well now look who's being careless."
Capture2: "Another ship to fuel the army. You'll have my thanks."
Capture3: "Well, well, well, what ship do we have here?"
Capture4: "You'd be surprised how easy it is to find these ships laying around."
Capture5: "One person's garbage is another person's war machine."


Zevestivan Lines

With the exception of Matriarch Kydora and Variuhn, all Zevestivan speak their native language. To get a feel for how their language sounds, contact me at undyingnephalim@yahoo.com and I will email you samples.

Construction Ship (m or f)
Something a little exciting, almost like the captain is happy to do his job.

Selected: "Memdark gordyak?"
Selected2: *snoring followed by waking up sounds*
Move: "eyet"
Move2: *grunt of aknowledgement*
Build: "Jek pridar"
Repair: "Nedok???"
HPcritical: *hysterical scream*


Mining Ship (m or f)
Mining is a job for the lesser educated Zevestivan, so a voice that sound unintelligent should work.

Selected: "Memdark gordyak?"
Selected2: "Nik ol?"
Move: "eyet"
Move2: "Vagras"
Harvest: "Kokltos shto taht!"
Repair: "Nedok pridar"
HPcritical: *panting*


Mining Dock(m or f)
Mining is a job for the lesser educated Zevestivan, so a voice that sound unintelligent should work.

Selected: "Keto!"
Selected2: "Nik ol nam?"
HPcritical: *loud screams*

Shipyard (m or f)
Feel free to experiment with this voice.

Selected: "Nam nam vorut?"
Selected 2: "Keko soto nam."
HPcritical: *static* "Okey ondar! Ondaaaaarrrr!!!"

Attack2 "peo tokkkkk!"
Repair: "Sintario pridar! Pridar!"

I want a voice that sounds like an honorable warrior. Someone who's showing off basically.

Research: "nota nota...."

Large Shipyard (m or f)
Feel free to experiment with this one

Selected: "Kordotos?"
Selected 2: "Keko soto nam."
HPcritical: *static* *screams*

Battleship (m or f)
I want the Battleship to sound very snooty, arrogant, and nonchalant.

Selected: "Nam nam?"

Move: "Dok shod eyet!"
Move2: "neyard ves!"
Attack: "Peo tok malruk!"
Attack2: "Hok bogfetsss"
Repair: "Vedi ses sintario"
HPcritical: *screaming*
EnemyDetected: "Gladistok nairee."

Selected2: "Nordes peo tok?"

Attack2: "Peo tok nyd croos!"


Zevestivan Character lines (If you wish to do the voices for main characters, please consider that I'll need to be in regular contact with you as the campaign progresses)


Matriarch Kydora ( f )
The Matriach is a tough one, and I'll be really harsh on who succeeds at getting the role. She has a split personality so something somewhat psychotic might suit her. For more info on her check out her wiki entry: Kydora - Sigma Wiki

Selected: "You speak to the Matriarch."
Selected2: "Where shall my will be spread?"
Move: "Dok shod eyet."
Move2: "Beargat neayard."

Green Alert: "Negotiation is what I do best..."
Yellow Alert: "Our little friends might get a bit edgy"

Half-Monarch Kolmahn ( m )
This guy is just a straight up religious zealot psychopath. Do your best crazy lizard preacher impression and you're good to go. More info on him here: Kolmahn - Sigma Wiki

Move: "eyet pridar"
Move2: "Dok shod eyet"

HPcritical: "Nedok Zaun Zortu!"
EnemyDetected: "Nordes greeg"
Green Alert: "Ishisu"
Yellow Alert: "Nom Norak"
Red Alert: "Rek tor peo tok!"

Variuhn ( f )
She's somewhat of an assassin, and bit playful about it too. I picture her as having an arrogant and voice that sounds like she might be teasing you.

Selected: "Human tongue isss humerousss..."
Selected2: "vo shu?"
Move: "eyet jev shee"
Move2: "zeg pridar"
Attack: "maniacle laughter"
Attack2: "We ssshall k....k....kill them, correct?"

HPcritical: "worried scream"
EnemyDetected: "See them I come, cosht ok tet?"
Green Alert: "Ishisu Sor"
Yellow Alert: "Nom Norak"
Red Alert: "Obidai Motok!"


Mylock Lines

Since the Mylock are machines a majority of their units will not have vocal dialog. For now I think only their characters will. Also keep in mind your voice will be put through a mecha filter.


Mylock characters (If you wish to do the voices for main characters, please consider that I'll need to be in regular contact with you as the campaign progresses)

Primordius ( m )
Selected: "You hear what you choose to perceive"

Repair: "A new beggining..."
HPcritical: "We will not retire with this world"
EnemyDetected: "Those not among us will come"
Green Alert: "Our cosmos is stable"
Yellow Alert: "The stars are active"
Red Alert: "Let us bring an end to this malady"

Ventus ( m )
Selected: "Your mind speaks loud"
Selected2: "Grant me your thoughts"
Move: "My arrival is imminent"
Move2: "I shall pull along the fabric"
Attack: "Death will be deemed acceptable"
Attack2: "I will know them before they know me"
Repair: "I will not end so soon"
HPcritical: "Do not let my end be nigh"
EnemyDetected: "They were perceived before they were seen"
Green Alert: "The mind shall be at rest"
Yellow Alert: "The thoughts shall flow"
Red Alert: "Plots will unfold"

Perceptum ( f )
Selected: "You need not know of me"
Selected2: "Your mind has been known"
Move: "I will find"
Move2: "Along the threads we tread"
Attack: "Audio communication has been deemed unacceptable"
Attack2: "They have deemed our attempts useless"
Repair: "Mind my mind"
HPcritical: "The ends of perception are nigh"
EnemyDetected: "Their manifest is known to me"
Green Alert: "A void has come"
Yellow Alert: "There is light"
Red Alert: "There is chaos"

I'd be willing to do the human destroyer sounds, provided I can get the microphone working and a quite day.

Never really tried it before, but I'll throw my hat in the ring. When would you need them by? And in what media format?

No particular deadline, though asap is always good for me. Most sound programs record .wav's by default so that's the best.... but .ogg and .mp3's are fine too.

I'll take a look and see if it still works. Haven't done this since ages. I can't promise anything, but ATM I don't see a problem. You'd have to deal with my slight German accent, though. :p

I always wanted to try how would I sound as a lizard, sou I'd like to take Half-Monarch Kolmahn - if a serious Hungarian accent is fine by you :cool:

But I'm open to any other character as well :)

Prometheus? Me?

Well, I've rcorded my voice for Prometheus. My voice was WAY too high, so I used audacity to lower it. I hope I make the cut!

I'd LOVE to try my hand at the Zevestivan lines. I'd use my 'Klingon-voice' as I call it for them. This means gruff, slightly raspy. I've also got an idea for a slightly...oily voice as well.

The thing I have to know first; what is a recording program that I can use for this?

Audacity works pretty well for voice recording and editing. :thumbsup:

I've completed the Zevestian battleship sounds, but right now it's in a audacity project format. Would that be alright, or should I separate them out into mp3s or wavs?

I prefer .wav for sounds but I should be able to open up Audacity files since that's the program I use.

I've used audacity, lowered my voice a bit, converted them into wavs, and are ready to send. How can send them to you?:confused:

Downloading

On DA, you asked me if I have a windows 7 computer. I do.
So how do I just need the engine if I need armada 2?
