[K1] DarthVarkor’s Dann Kasra “Before the Reveal” - PC Replacement Soundset

---

AUTHOR: Sith Holocron

ORIGINAL RELEASE: 3 MAR 2019

GAMES: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 1. [This mod will not work in Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2. See Description for more details.]

 

 

Description:

If you’ve seen DarthVarkor’s series, perhaps you might have considered making your character sound like his.  With this mod for KotOR1, now you can.

I asked DarthVarkor to record all of the lines that the PC says.  He even threw in a couple of extra takes (“p_plyermw_slct9 (improvised extra) and “p_plyermw_stlh4”) as his character might be more likely to say the lines that way. You could rename those lines to replace the normal lines if you do desire. If you decide to do that, be sure not include the original line you’ll be replacing. 

As his series’ main character hasn’t had the spoiler-laden reveal in this sound set, he’s not wearing a mask so there’s no filter here.

This mod is only for Knights of the Old Republic 1.  Knights of the Old Republic 2 - although it has the voice files for the male and female PC - that game doesn't have them activated, rendering the Exile mute. In order to use this mod in Knights of the Old Republic 2, you must install JC's Player Soundset Restoration for K2 in KotOR2 before this mod. That being said: As this mod is strictly designed for KotOR1 and not for KotOR2, any sounds that do not end of playing what you expected should not be reported to me.

 

Installation:

-----------------

You'll not be dropping these into your Override like my usual mods.  This time you have new steps to follow.

1) Now that you’ve made your choices above, move the original KotOR1 files that come with the game to a place you can find them.  (I recommend a folder on your desktop but you do you!)  Those files will be located in the "Streamsounds" folder. 

2) Extract the files from the 7z folder. Grab the new files from that extracted folder and put them in Streamsounds folder.

 

Note: If you're using the mod on Steam, this quote may prove helpful.

“I threw the files in Streamsound. I managed to fix it by verifying game files through steam and reinstalling the mod though!”

 

Uninstall:

--------------

Remove my files from the Streamsounds folder. Put the original files that you saved elsewhere back in the Streamsounds folder.

All materials and copyrights belong to LucasArts, Bioware and Obsidian Entertainment Inc. I own none of the materials, and I'm not making any money out of this mod. It is to be distributed as-is without alteration, unless notified in writing of permission granted by me. This mod is not to be distributed for profit, either.

 

I hereby state that I specifically do NOT wish this mod to be uploaded to Steam Workshop. I may release this on NexusMods at a later date but I don't wish others to do so. Usage in other mods must be requested and approved by me in writing before your use.

 

Special Thanks:

-----------------------

DarthVarkor: For recording the lines so his fans can play as his character!  You have seen his movies, right?  Here’s a preview of next feature featuring this character.

I followed the instructions but my character still sounds the same,

though I didn't follow step 3 as I don't understand it

step 3 sounds like uninstalling the mod, or else I'm misinterpreting it

@detran : Please describe what you did to install it in your own words.

Headed off to work so I will check back tonight to see if you responded. In the meantime, could everyone else that has used this mod (or is just stopping by) answer one or both of these?

1) If you've used this mod, could you confirm that it worked for you?

2) Might any of you recommend an alternate way of rewording the instructions to make it easier for folks in the future?

Just tested myself and the mod works perfectly fine on my end. All I did was extract the wav files to my StreamVoice folder and it worked. Did you do anything differently?

Thanks, @DarthVarkor!

I have removed step 3 from the description of all my sound set mods to make it easier for folks in the future to suss out how to use these mods.

Hello! Years late in my case, but what kind of compression do the files use to work in the game? The PC voice is not loud enough compared to NPCs and companions and I've figured out how to equalize the voices but not how to save them in a format that KOTOR will actually use. Thanks!

 

EDIT: Never mind, figured it out. It's "Signed 16-bit PMC". Let me know if you want the volume-corrected files to upload
