ANNOUNCER SOUND MOD - SimpleFear

[SimpleFear]

Announcer Sound Mod - Compatible with 1.38->.3.0+
Description: Changes the In-game announcer's voice

Included in this mod are the following announcer's voices:
Quake/UnrealTournament Announcer - same as DotA's (not 100% port but close)
Quake/UnrealTournament Female 'Sexy' announcer (best one imho)
Heroes of Newerth Original voice (pre-patch 1.37) which includes Double Tap and Hattrick. Conveniently separated for those who want one or the other or both.


Installation Instructions:
Download this file: http://freefile.sunburst.at/user09/AnnouncerMod.zip
Mirror:http://www.mediafire.com/?mhxynmzlm2j
Choose the narrator of your choice and locate the corresponding folder within the Zip file.
Select the resources020.s2z from that folder and extract it to:
X:\program files\Heroes of Newerth\game
Ensure to turn off 'use folder names' if using winzip or winrar.

NOTE: Not in honmod format, please feel free to convert it if you so desire. As it affects no other files there is no advantage to it being in honmod format. Likewise, any future patches should have no effect on the mod.





Enjoy!!!!

[Tassels]

Make a mod like this but using the UT2004 "sexy" voice! Please, I beg of you! GOGOGO!

[SimpleFear]

Updated. Added more Quake sounds and also added the 'Sexy voice'... You don't need to make love to me though.

[Nvied]

Quake Sounds omg, please complete :D :D

It happens all the time.

Sup.

[rayuki]

very nice thanks for this :)

[They_Hate_Me]

dont i have to delete the old "resources0.s2z" file 4 the new one to over ride

[SimpleFear]

NO you will need to reinstall the game if you do this lol.

You just need to place one of these files into the specified folder. No overwriting or deleting necessary.
Once installed, to uninstall all you need to do is remove the new resources020.s2z file etc.

I request the Unreal Tournament GOTY sounds :D

Just a note: all of the announcer sounds from DotA were taken from Unreal Tournament 2004, not Quake. :)

I want this to be clear. DotA did not invent the sounds.

I hate everyone that runs around asking for the "DotA sounds"

[HyBReD]

He's just referencing where people on this board are going to recognize the sound from... you aren't making anything "clear" just coming off like a pompous jackass.

[tythuy]

Oh well , not their fault if they didnt played UnrealTournament , they missed somthing a classic game in my heart

And i also noticed in the Quake female sounds , the double kill is a multikill sounds
a bit a letdown ;(

[SimpleFear]

I know, I apologize... I couldn't find a sound clip of her saying "double kill" so I figured multi kill would work ok.

Triple kill is replaced by: Killing spree with her as well.
and honestly I kind of like it this way :).

I've been using the Female announcer and I really like it. With the female announcer file, the male announcer covers about 30% of the in-game phenomenon so it's like having the game commentated by two announcers.


And I know where the sounds came from... I converted them lol ;), but everyone calls them "Quake sounds" and "the sounds from DotA" so I figured for ease of communication I'd say what would be most easily recognized ;).

[rofflewoffle]

I love this mod. Just sayin'

[tythuy]

I found the sounds from dota , i hope you can make something with this :)

[SimpleFear]

Update: Combined the different voices into a single zip file, select the one you would like to use and move it into your X:\program files\heroes of newerth\game folder.

[tythuy]

Oh , you said in the zip they were the same as dota's but actually it doesnt sound like the same , download the zip in the LINK i gave you just above.
Compare them you will see what i am talking about :)

[SimpleFear]

You are correct, some of the sound files are the same while others are slightly different. VERY close though, monster kill and dominating do not sound nearly as cool in the DOTA version imho.

Personally I prefer the ones i've used better, the announcer is a little more angry sounding haha, when I have time I may do an exact port of the DotA sounds though.

I will update the main post to reflect this. I'd update the zip, but not enough time atm haha.

[tythuy]

The deep voice feel very satifying in this pack hehe, anyway i will really like a version with this pack , i will make a sig with : Love Simplefear4ever

[Tassels]

Love the female voice. Thanks :D

Watch your step :D

[Pzy]

does it work with the new patch? 0.40?

[tythuy]

Watch your step :D

Any problem ? :) i clearly stated they were from UT

[Xzarr]

It should.

[BleBla]

woman's voice sounds like porn :/

[SimpleFear]

does it work with the new patch? 0.40?

Yes, will work indefinitely assuming S2 doesn't change the file structure.


woman's voice sounds like porn :/
:confused: is this a bad thing???:D
It doesn't seem as 'sexual' in-game, kind of a nice juxtaposition with the action imo.

[rofflewoffle]

woman's voice sounds like porn :/

And you complain! How do you sleep at night?

[AlcaponeYou]

I can't hear any sound after kills? What's wrong.

[SimpleFear]

I can't hear any sound after kills? What's wrong.

I can't answer that unless you tell me what you've done and how you installed it :).

Just take ONE of the resources020.s2z files and place it into X:\program files\heroes of newerth\game

If your not hearing ANY voices its not the mod, because your regular resources0.s2z would kick in and play those voices in lieu of these ones... Try redownloading the file and installing as per instructions just in case.

[AlcaponeYou]

nvm i got it. it didn't work that first time for some reason.

[They_Hate_Me]

i hear both the new sounds and the old ones. How can i stop the old ones?

[SchiSch2]

thank you, sexy voice is sexy :D

[kAZUR]

is it only me looking to get the Double Tap sounds back?
anyways im not sure in what patch it changed to Double Kill. any1 got any idea how to recieve the original sounds?

thx

My mod?????
Read the OP.

EDIT: From the original post:
Included:
Heroes of Newerth Original voice (pre-patch 1.37) which includes Double Tap and Hattrick. Conveniently separated for those who want one or the other or both.

...
It was patch 1.37 that changed the voices, and yes you can get double tap and/or hattrick back and no your not the only one... The mod was originally made just for hattrick and doubletap.

[kAZUR]

ah lol... i read "files attatched" and not "files affected"
thx

[Discord]

Sexy voice mod is, in fact, sexy.

What are the chances of you making a mod with the non-porn star, English-accented announcer voice? That would be goddamn incredible. I mean, I won't lie-- I chuckle every time I hear the announcer gurgle out "Holy ****!" in that orgasm-y voice, but the British chick was just so much more savage and crisp.

Pretty please?

Regardless, thank you very very much for the current mod. It's easily my favorite so far. ^-^*

[T4Furi]

My mistake, DELETED

[Finalwish]

Any plan to make a guide on this? Id love the voices from Unreal Tournament 2004 on this. Pretty sure they are different (dunno I havnt played UT in years)

I love sexy voice saying HOLYY SHITTT!!!! <orgasms>

[MeTrAFE]

mirror please

[SimpleFear]

Added a mirror, and will be adding more announcer voices soon.

[SiIhouette`]

good luck in getting 9 kills

not hard

[Rullstol]

Update it please - been missing this today ... :D

[Afterstar]

I have put the resources.020.s2z as instructed in the C:\Program Files\Heroes of Newerth\game however it doesnt change anything.

Is the mod out of date and that's why it doesn;t work or do we have to do something more?

[Koukku]

nice :) ima download this when i get to home

[CarnageHeart]

You are correct, some of the sound files are the same while others are slightly different. VERY close though, monster kill and dominating do not sound nearly as cool in the DOTA version imho

It's because there are different renditions of the sounds from each version of UT.

There are the classic UT sounds, UT2k3 sounds, UT2k4 sounds, and UT3 sounds. The one's used in DotA I THINK are the UT2k4 sounds. I can supply you with each variety if you like. Including REAL Quake sounds such as "Prepare To Fight" and a vocal 3,2,1 count down if it's possible to implement that for when the game is starting.

[theBlankShot]

The sexy voices are seducing me.

[Mugumaster]

I experimented with a lot of ways to change ingame sounds now. I even made total custom Announcer sounds. And most of them work well, but I cant make some Announcer sounds get to work :/

It drives me nuts!! I tried everything, from editing the resource0.s2z to add another resource1.s2z to add folders in my documents/Hon etc.

I even converted the files to 22050hz 45kbs mono OGG files like the originals and it still doesnt work on some sounds :(

For Example:
Legion_wins.ogg just works fine but firstblood.ogg just doesnt, I just hear the default sound of it :(

Anyone else got that Problem ?
I gave the modified resource0.s2z file to a friend and he heard some sounds i didnt hear, but on the other hand he didnt hear sounds I heard on my PC.

I begin to hate it ! Wasted enough time already but i just cant stop trying !!!

Please help me or I will go Insane about that :)

[Amer]

NOT working with new patch.
upd.
well, it does now :)
I just cant get if it works all the time or from time to time.

[YoDa]

ROFL

[HONsoL0]

can this be done in the new format for mod manager? I love the mod.

[HONsoL0]

?!? yes no maybe?

[Xzarr]

What would be the point? It's not like it conflicts with anything but other sound mods for exactly the same sounds.

[Yzorderex]

When I copy the female sounds into the directory, I hear both announcers, is that intended?

[HONsoL0]

What would be the point? It's not like it conflicts with anything but other sound mods for exactly the same sounds.The point is that the mod manager will be taking over and i see it being a standard format for most mods eventually. If i knew how to convert it i would have already done so myself. Anyways i was just trrying to help the creator of this mod out with a simple suggestion. I am also getting the voiceover overlapping and i think it has something to do with modmanager and putting this mod into the same directory. A similar mod made called DESTINY has already adopted the HON mod manager format would be nice to see this one follow.

[gwho1]

not compatible with viop slider

[MaxGhost]

There's no reason for there to have an incompatibility...

[gwho1]

something else is conflicting with it then. i'm pretty sure this was the one new thing i downloaded and then modman started to give me this. maybe it's something else that's conflicting. can u help me out?

i redownloaded VOIP from the OP.

okay, from the below screenshot, i turned off tinyUI and turned on VOIP. it great success. i switch, great success. i do both tinyUI and VOIP. error.

the incompatibility seems to be with the updated tinyUI, not this mod.

If anyone else wants to convert it to honmod that would be super... It might just be that I'm tired, but I'm not quite understanding how honmod works exactly.


BTW: Will be adding a comedy pack soon, things like Darth Vader yelling "NooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooo" when Scout is picked and the like :D...
Been really busy with crap lately, sorry guys :)

A small guide already exists. The Mod Manager thread has an explanation about how the .honmod files work. It's really easy to just use a mod.xml that someone else created from another mod and just make the changes to it so it works with your mod.

[AlexanderKS]

omfg i love you this is the reason why i loved dota xD TRIPLE KILL, MMMONSTER KILL, MEGA KILL, ULTRA KILL lol.

Please add all the sounds they are awesome :)

[AlexanderKS]

Why is it taking so long to implent sounds? -.-

[MaxGhost]

Why is it taking so long to implent sounds? -.-

Because people have lives.

[AlexanderKS]

Because people have lives.

What? that doesnt mean it should take weeks to do it. So you're saying S2 Games have no lifes cause they work on the game 24/7 lol even on weekends.

Its not hard to implent some time to finish the sounds jeez.

[gwho1]

i suppose it's just max's way of saying "i dont have time or "i'll get around to it, hold on"

even when we do have time we sometimes dont feel like it. inexplicable from productivity perspective, but of course humans have feelings


_____________


btw i noticed the sounds arent exactly similar to DOTA. the voice seems different, yes the male quake one.

[HONsoL0]

the female ones are by far my fav

[MaxGhost]

No, it's called school, responsibilities, work, homework, family, friends, sleeping, playing HoN, and answering stupid questions on forums. That's what consumes 98% of my time. The other 2% is the rare occasion that I have time to mess around with modding. Whereas at S2, that's their full time job, that they're paid to do and do well. The only reason I do this is because I like the learning experience and being of help to many gamers; it's an enriching experience, but I can't leave behind my life just for creating and updating mods. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has these kinds of responsibilities, so stop pestering people about updating mods, because frankly, it's really not that important.

I'm saying NO, it's not my way of saying I don't feel like it, I'm saying that you should stop putting words in my mouth and understand that people have lives, and better things to do.
