Voice Swap

[Rhubarbo]

I'm certain this has probably been covered in some other threads before, but I'll go ahead and ask the question anyways: With the advent of music swap, if there any way we can swap out character's voice clips now?

i wish. (that is a nice way of saying nope not in a million years)

All the sound effects (that includes character sounds) are in 1 file.
So no.
We can't even edit those files yet as they're in a different format.

Well, perhaps the best way for the hackers to approach it is totally replacing that single file, and editing individual parts of it. I guess they still need to get accustomed to the format first though.

Urrgh... I thought this thread was going to include a voice/sound swap link or something, not just ask about it!!

Yeah, it has been done. I don't know about details, but some people at kittycorp did it. I would check there, kittycorp is really helpful when it comes to this kind of thing.

I don't really see the point though. I will want to change the announcer's voice, though!
THAT will be sweet
(again, its been done, ill have to find out about that.)

Is it possible to replace that one file in its entirety using the File Patch code? In order to, say, have Japanese voices?

 

[Wolf of Ice]

It's probably a massive file..

IT's 90MB, I doubt that can be stored into the Wii memory. No, it will not work with the file patch code.

The american sfx is around 1 or 2 megs.
Whereas the JPN version is in the hundreds of megs.

And I hear consistent streaming of stuff from the SD via Phantom Wings's crap shortens the lifespan of the SD.

No confirmation on that. From what I hear, it's just a rumor.

The best you can do with that file is unpack it on the computer, you can't repack the file at all with any changes you've made to the sound files (hell, I'm not even sure what format the sound files are even in, just the giant packed up one being a .brsar). In other words, it's a big phat no (and there was already a thread on this believe... actually, two threads, both of which I answered with the very same reasoning).

You won't be seeing edited SFXs or voice files for a very good while, if ever.

Will it work with ISO hacking anytime soon?

Not even that (at least, editing the voice files and putting them back in won't) you can of course replace the USA voices with the JPN voices but aside from that, I wouldn't get your hopes up on being able to do your own voices for MetaGay or I fight for my Friends Ike.
