Accent Overhaul Mod 1.4 - Asian Guard Lines
- Global: Non-Japanese Asian Male voices now have guard lines (thanks to SDEF rebuilding format by 2kpr); meaning they now interact with radio/civilians/other guards/you at sentry zones instead of staying silent
- Global: Aforementioned voicesets no longer constantly touch their earpiece repeatedly
- Bangkok: Indian sentries replaced with South-East Asian sentries
- Bangkok - The Source: A woman named “Karl” no longer has a male voice
- Meta: File size reduced by 100mb, some dependencies used
90% of of the lines in this demonstration video would have been silence in all previous versions of the mod:
Notes:
- Yes, I know many Asian NPCs refer to themselves as “Kong” in certain situations (This was already the case), and speak Chinese even though they’re in Thailand
- Some random lines have subtitles, possibly confusing the player into thinking they have some sort of significance. They can be removed but that’s even more effort than I already put in, and is a low priority
- Some lines might seem a bit silly or a tad ill-fitting for the context, but the alternative was having nothing at all, so…
Next will be doing the other voices, starting with the more Middle-Eastern sounding voice of the Maelstrom for Marrakesh soldiers and Dubai guards.
I could have also put out an update for Chongqing Noodle Massacre to replace the Indian sentries, but I’m intending to put in more cops and improve Classic Soundtrack in next update, and haven’t started that yet.
