Open and free to use voice assets with vanilla follower dialogue support (meaning they work with multi-follower frameworks)!
This mod adds new voicetypes for use with followers and NPCs.
For users
See the installation notes/instructions for use.
These voices should work with the following multi-follower frameworks:
- Nether's Follower Framework - Compatible.
- Extensible Follower Framework - Requires patch provided in the FOMOD.
- Amazing Follower Tweaks - Compatible. There is an extra "I need you to do something"
- Immersive Amazing Follower Tweaks - Compatible.
- Simple Follower Extension - Compatible.
- Swiftly Order Squad - Compatible.
- UFO Ultimate Follower Overhaul - Not compatible.
- Multiple Followers Framework - Without the MFF "Dialogue" patch, these voices will use the vanilla follower framework. Otherwise, the you may try the experimental MFF patch (NOT included in the FOMOD; see optional files).
- Busy Follower Framework - Try the experimental BFF patch (NOT included in the FOMOD; see optional files).
- Simple Follower Framework - Compatible. (Not tested significantly, so let me know if you have any trouble.)
For mod authors
The goal is to provide the basics of follower dialogue, so that you, the mod author, can get a head start with custom, AI-voiced followers without wasting time on vanilla follower dialogue. The best part? These voices can work with most follower frameworks! Refer to details per voice.
Alternatively, you can use these voices just so your vanilla-framework follower sounds different from the other 1,000 FemaleYoungEager-voiced followers.
Note: I strongly recommend you use these voicetypes as is instead of duplicating the files to make a custom framework. There is no need to replace the vanilla follower functions (recruit, dismiss, wait, follow, do favor, trade) with yet another standalone, custom framework when these voicetypes already integrate with mature follower frameworks. You can, at any time, pull a follower out of the framework temporarily by dismissing them (see my scripts) and timing them out from the PotentialFollowerFaction. If you have questions about this, or want me to make changes to make this more agreeable to you, feel free to send me a message.
Unless otherwise specified, these voices support the following vanilla features:
- All SharedInfos from the DialogueGeneric quest.
- Marriage dialogue.
- Hearthfires adoption support.
- Vendor lines.
- Innkeep rumor lines (all 3 of them).
