Nope.

[QuakeIV]

IIRC acts 1-4 are cast presently, so its a little worse then that.



e:

[General Battuta]

No, we've only cast characters who first appear in acts 1 and 2. Also I don't get the reference

[An4ximandros]

Ain't that the stealth game that works like thief in 2d?

[swashmebuckle]

Mark of the ninja.  It's a good one.

[Kara Thrace]

Cool! *foams at the mouth in anticipation of everything*

My current obligations are minimal, and I am available to record an audition for Thorn (and maybe Kovacs or one of Al-da'wa's manifestations) if you would be willing to send a script (under the assumption that performance directions have already been composed). For the sake of organization, I can retain the recordings until a later time, when it is appropriate to submit it, unless you indicate otherwise. (I am male, contrary to username gender implications.)

Revised for succinctness: "can I haz script for Thorn and Kovacs, please?"

[General Battuta]

I would absolutely love to, but unfortunately, quality script generation is the most time-consuming part of the process.

[Kara Thrace]

Completely understandable! I know how it is from having worked on a couple of librettos. I would love to audition, though, so I'll keep an eye out for when those parts are ready!

[General Battuta]

All auditions finally processed! We may do callbacks on a few roles, but casting is close to final.

[Luis Dias]

aaaaaaaaayyyyyeeeeaaaaaaahhhhh

[CommanderDJ]

Today is a good day.

[QuakeIV]

Looks like I may have to re-play before I even finish my current re-play.

This sits well with me.

[Lykurgos88]

I don't know if this has been asked before, but is this voice acting "package" going to get a release first for the existing acts of 1-2 or 1-3, or is it going to be delayed until Act 4 gets released and then bundled together?

[General Battuta]

We'll release a War in Heaven Director's Cut with voice acting for Acts 1 and 2 and dreamscape tutorials for Act 3.

[theacefes]

I emailed a submission. Not sure how up to date that google doc was. If not, I hope it's still entertaining.

[Gee1337]

I'm eagerly anticipating this! I've decided to hold off playing WiH until the voice acting is complete, so I can get the best experience in the first play through like I did with AoA.

Was thinking if it would be worth getting the scripts up for Acts 3, 4 and 5 (ok 5 is a bit ambitious as most people await the fourth installment), so that people can start getting in early submissions and hopefully they can be implemented pretty much straight away. okay, I know it's not a priority and could delay releases (which I wouldn't say no too)... but it was just a thought!

[General Battuta]

It's a ton of work, unfortunately, and it would also spoil the entire story.

[Gee1337]

Fair comment. The way round spoiling the story would [SPOILER ALERT] on the initial thread that would start the death march!

I tried a bit of FREDding many years ago, but I don't have the talent for it. But I understand the amount of work that would be involved, not to mention the endless testing that goes with it. I use to produce music using Propellerheads Reason and making something even half decent takes many hours of work!

[General Battuta]

Definitely. I don't just mean making the missions, though - actually getting the scripts into a format that's good for actors, and filling them up with context cues to help them deliver the lines, takes a ton of time. It's by far the lengthiest part of the process, and it's something I've generally had to do myself.

[oliacym]

God DAMMIT, just looked at this thread. Currently a few missions into the campaign, now I have to decide whether to tear myself away and wait for the voice acted version...

I'm gonna wait. Dammit.
