@TheProtofire I used elevenlabs.io to generate the voice lines; I had to 'clone' Mara's VA by feeding clean audio clips of her voice into the system (~1.5 minutes worth I think). Once I had the voice set up, I generated the audio clips, downloaded them, and clipped/converted/normalized them in Audacity. I highly recommend following Robojumper's guide on voice packs, that's what I did once I had the voice lines.

One thing I did find interesting about the AI is that you need to give context for the voice lines. For example, if I wanted her to whisper, 'Into the shadows', I would need to write "'Into the shadows,' she whispered quietly." Most of the time, I would get a good rendition on the first attempt, but for some of them I needed to rewrite the prompt or just regenerate the audio until it sounded good.

I could do a more detailed write up if you'd like it, but hopefully this got the general idea across. Lemme know if you have any questions!

Do you have a guide or suggestions for using A.I to generate voices? I wanted to make voicepacks myself and think this would be a good tool to add to it.

Amazing mod! Fits well and really well done!

Dude! AI-generated, I never considered that that might be used for Xcom voices! That could help solve the dearth of accented voices, heck we could even use the voices of people not even speaking English and still make what we want! Brilliant.

It's always good to have voices that fit the Skirmishers
