x2 stats, perfect perks, cmon...

of course, that's why I came ask for permission , add me on discord if you can, so we can talk better sirni7923

Hi :)
If it's possible I would like to also know how to do it cause I have a couple JA2 npcs I would like to add in the game as recruitable without being on the AIM page!
Could you maybe share the procedure with me?
You can make Deedee recruitable of course.
Just give me credit for the original voice and sounds please.
It cost me money and a lot of time to do them.

Hello, I would like your permission to try to make her recruitable as a RPC =)

She is recruitable in AIM after you subscribed on the mod and activated it in your game. :)

Hi, I'm not sure if this is already asked. But is she hireable in AIM or is she recruitable by talking to her in her shack?

@BaddAzzYellaBro: Happy to read that. :) I'm updating all my already released mods with voices and working on all the other JA2 characters that I didn't released yet (some prior npcs too) as also additional new faces.

Thanks for updating this mod. She's a constant in my play through since Fidel always leaves after a short time. So I role-play Dee in as a replacement explosives expert.

As a sidenote, she can praise Granny Cohani (the one I created only)or mourn her death if she might die. Granny also has some praise for Deedee (and some mock if she misses her shot aswell ^_^ ).

Created Voice lines with the original voice from JA3 since she had only one that I only used to clone her voice.
So the voice lines are 100% created by me.
Full voiced now! Hope you will enjoy. :)
Should these lines appear in other mods then you will know that they were definately taken from my mod.

Updated once again! Now she doesn't have the NPC Symbol over her head anymore because I was finally able to remove it. :)
Also working on some sounds for her in the meantime so she will be updated again full voiced soon.

Yes. :) Some are already voiced (you can find the infos on their pages).
Some I'm still working on. Currently finishing Buzz and Lynx.

Yes, that's what I meant, extracting or recording her voice during the conversation and then cutting and inserting it for the confirmation sounds.

>"I'm working on some voices right now for several of my release mercs"
I've seen that you also added some JA2 mercs, where you've even imported their original sounds? Looks great, I'll try out those instead. :)

About in game recruitable mercs: Well, you'll certainly find that out before me, because I haven't created a mod for JA3 before. ;)

Hallihallo! :D
I wished it was that way but unfortunately it was not cause when I selected her npc voice she said nothing during the gameplay at all since none of her npc sounds are tied to any of the confirmations as a merc. IF it were possible to extract her voice files I might be able to create a original sounds package for her by cutting and editing her original sounds, convert them to new ones and apply them in the various in game situations so they will trigger to the proper events.
I think we are able to create new skills and apply them but I didn't fiddle around with them so far cause all extracting, coverting and importing sounds for single mercs are taking A LONG time.
I tried to create in game recruitable mercs before and failed. If you find out how to do them I will gladly add some of mine in the game aswell if you let me know how to do it. :)

Hi and Servus ;)

I see... I thought her conversation might contain enough material for at least the normal confirmation sounds. I actually really like her (original) voice. What kind of plans do you have to create a new voice for her?

I actually thought about trying to create a mod for her as well and that's why I checked the workshop to see if someone has done it already.
I like the perks you've chosen for her from the existing one... But is it possibile to create new unique perks as well? I think something like creating rocket launcher ammunition every x days using x ammunition with a 50% chance to receive a wound would be perfect (enough grenade specialists already).
And have you thought about making her a Grand Chien merc instead of an AIM one and have a connected quest that is required before hiring her?

@r47926 Hi :) It is on purpose cause her NPC voice has only the lines she talks during her quest and would otherwise remain silent instead of reacting at all.
I'm working on some voices right now for several of my release mercs and as soon as I have a new voice for her I will inlcude it and rerelease her. :)

She has a generic IMP merc voice. Is that on purpose or a bug in my installation?

@Dumeka No sweat, I was just curious regarding the speech bubble..

Hi. Its unfortunately from her NPC Self. I tried to get rid of it like in Grannys and Biffs case but for some reason it doesnt work with her even when I put her piece by piece together. It seems to be tied on her model. Will still try to find a way to take it away. Right now just busy with adding the sounds of all JA and JA2 mercs I created into the game. :)

Hi Dimeka, great to have Deedee as a recruitable merc. For some reason Deedee Bombastic has a green speech bubble above her head. Is this just me, or is this a part of the mod and can't be fixed?

will use her in my 2nd team. wisdom still low but will offer her some books for that :D

Thanks a lot for the comments guys. :) Happy you enjoy her! Please leave a thumbs up as a rate if you like her. :) I'm working on many more mercs for the game to increase the catalog, trying to make them look as unique as possible to the others with the limited tools we have right now (only the editor) in the hope to improve things after the mod tools will be released mid august. :)

Love the mod. Using as part of my main campaign.

her peaks really good for a granadier but hope wisdom is much higher now. everything else can be at 1 but with low wisdom nearly impossible to get her good later.

Changed her stats, increasing her strength and mechanical skills, reduced the marksmaship a bit, increased her wisdom a bit too. Changed her model with one that I created from parts so I could change the hair color so she wont look old with the previous white hair and updated the outfit colors a bit too.

@rhwilson1953 unfortunately if you meet her in game you will see that her wisdom is not THAT high and it shows through her behaviour ^_^ That's why I kept it low I had to also balance her out since she is a recruit and she shouldn't be overpowered and come across like a elite. She is max on explosives after all and her mechanical as also medical skills aren't bad either. Her Marksmanship is also high with 78 compared to other recruits aswell. You are right about her strength though. I will increase the strength, up to the amount kalyna or livewire have, add a few more points to her mechanical skill and lower her marksmanship and medical skills a bit.

I think that someone with DeeDee's talents should have higher mechanical, strength, and wisdom. Can she create explosives like Barry does or is does she just detect and defuse explosives.

TBH I was surprised for her not to be available in the base game as a recrutable.

Thanks a lot! :)
I hope you will have fun with her!

funny idea! kudos for originality.
