katashy Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Well, I'm making a machinima using fallout3 about a group of female soldiers in the remenants of the US army (Not the Enclave) who are sent on various missions. As I have no voice actors (If you want to be one PM me please :P) I'm having to make it silent for now. Because of it being silent, the squad movement and commands won't make sense. So, can anyone make me some Army Hand signals? Maybe in the form of a gun that when shot at someone, opens up a menu where I can selcet which pose I want. The type of signals I would want would be: http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc65/KillerFlood/militarysignals.jpg ( I was looking for a picture and this was the best one I could find. ) Also, if you can think of any oter signals, please make them. I realise this is alot to ask, but you'll gt your name in the videos credits and everything!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rossum Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 If its just voice acting you need, there might be a few text-to-speech programs you can use. I'm sure that most such programs would have a female voice included in it. Otherwise, if you only intend for the communication to happen like with any other conversation then you could just say that the soldiers have learned to only communicate with sign language. Thus, they never say anything and you might have to get a Sign Language perk to have conversations with them... which might read something like "[sign Language] Lets trade equipment, Soldier." or something. Maybe you could try animating them so that when they talk they make signs. I would guess that a sign-language using squad would be really stealthy. And finally, the idea of a group of trained soldiers communicating with each other by pointing special guns at each others faces doesn't sound particularly professional or wise.

katashy Posted August 30, 2009 Author Share Posted August 30, 2009 What I mant by the gun was, well, theres a mod for oblivion that gives you a spell, that when cast, makes them do a pose you select through an ingame menu. So if I use a gun, they do the pose/ animation in a loop, so I then capture it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he meant it more as a machinima makers tool, not a gun that the soldiers use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to filter them a million times and they will still sound like sh*t. I'll go for the sign language stuff if I were you and than I would just add some subtitles...like in a foreign film!
