This makes a really good bootleg Ahsoka VP since its all lore friendly voicelines and the voice actress is now the live action ahsoka actress. Tonally, its a little rough because they're drastically different characters, but its good enough.

@Yoshi I suspect that's largely down the frequencies of Dawson's voice! I apply the same normalisation-lowpass-highpass-normalisation chain to all my voices, but the impact can feel quite different I appreciate.

It's possible that I should tighten up the low- and high-pass filters and maybe even mix some static or crackles in there - but it feels like quite a delicate balance.

Compared with other voices, the radio effect is barely noticeable. :(

After using her voice in a few play throughs its sounds very good. She sounds very good in the game, thanks for this.

haha, very good indeed!

I'll see if I can find an excuse to get some of her singing in there...

I believe it's the subdued voice of rosario dawson. I'm a fan of her work but she sounds very subdued in the preview lines.

Cheers both - such kind comments are very much appreciated!

Particularly given how this voice pack a) seems to have sunk compared to my others and b) took an awful lot of work to produce.

I think I must have screwed up the releasing process so that it never really showed up in the "Most Recent" view. Or perhaps the character or Ms Dawson's subdued delivery just isn't so compelling to most people.

On b), I couldn't work out to how to lookup which Dishonored voice clips belonged to which character, so hacked together a learning-spectral-analyser and slowly taught it to (somewhat reliably) identify who was speaking in each clip. (On the plus side, I might one day try to do a Clockwork Soldier voice pack…)

It's also my only voice pack which currently has a sort of 'aphorism' system where you have a small chance of the first line in each mission being something more interesting than "moving".

I agree. Thanks for the small details to the mod.

Thank you so much for putting the extra effort into both the description and the summary image into your work. It's the small things like this that speak volumes to the quality and care you put into your mods. Easy to read, easy to determine if you want it or not, extremely detailed, labeled. I love it.

And the voice is also very cool! Thank you for making this one, and for putting so much work into making them the best they can be. Subbed to all 3 voice packs, looking forward to more of your work!
