Roar when using Psycho from FO4

[dudeapocalypse]

Just the inarticulate scream part though, i do not dig the "f***ing KILL!" one, sounds kind of factitious.

Sure I see a few places we could put it. It could be layered over the use audio which is a wav, or added to the script effect (playSound). If it's added to the script effect I can also use a filter like getIsSex so a female or a male version of the roar can play depending on the users sex.

Both those would work for the courier for playing sound but wouldn't show in subtitles or in the character animation.

 

There is a function for dialogue (say) that might work to show some animation, it says lip syncing will be displayed which might be useful for a 3rd person POV. And there might be a loose animation that could be played, but I don't know if anything but the sound is important to your request.

Oh, also if it's some form of dialogue like the say function, it could use the voice type of a NPC that uses Psycho so they could roar too. They would still need the actual dialogue entry and audio so that's probably way too much work to record and add to the various dialogue quests and what have you.

I could filter out the roar from any npc if the sound effect is played by the psycho's script , shame though, as it would be cool to have npc's roar/yell in their own voice when they take psycho.

Well you obviously know better, I don't really know how it works to be honest. My idea was that it would be like scream / grunt player or companion do when gets hit / breaks leg (I think it's lip synced), just it would be different sound triggered with different event.

Wow, I didn't even know NPCs can use any chems except stimpaks. Again, at your discretion.

I could be totally off on that one, maybe they can't. But that would simplify things. Although I may still do the script so the scream can be paired with the correct gender.

 

Did you have a particular sound in mind? You setup that part of the mod, find the audio you want or if it's in game let me know what it is and I'll add it. Then you can test it.

So I went through the NV voice files, there weren't much in terms of believable screams, especially for male version, but I filtered out a few. They are in the folders named the same as they are in the BSA voice file. Two versions for two plugins:

 

1. "Vanilla Psycho reaction - regular" - female scream + male scream.

2. "Vanilla Psycho reaction - female barking" - same male scream + deranged female fiend battle line with barking.

Also a FO4 port version (just male and female "roar") would be nice.

Cool, thanks, I'll try and get this started and also the sights for the marksmen carbine soon

Sorry haven't had time to mod, so I just did a little intermediary fix. This is just added to the use sound, the injection then the roar. replace it at "Fallout New Vegas\Data\Sound\fx\npc\human\using\psycho"

I'm going to make a better one using ogg so that there is lip sync and add the sex check. Right now it just plays the male audio scream. Test it for me and let me know if it works (otherwise I screwed up the bitrate or something.....not an audio guy, so something else to learn).

Apologies for the late response.

Sorry I'm not sure how to replace it - all base game files are compressed in BSA and not visible. I created that file path you provided and placed the file there but it didn't work out.
