vanilla audio / subtitles features

[Roms1383]

Features

As we can see below, a voice subtitle translation can be of 2 kinds:

1. is played in the game's voice language (player selected, can only be updated by re-downloading the entire language pack)
2. is played e.g. in the NPC's mother-tongue and translated on-screen by V's cyberware

Subtitles of interest can be of 2 kinds:

1. main dialog (large one shown at the bottom)
2. chatter dialog (small one shown on top of e.g. NPC's head

Parser

When parsing, here's what we need to comply with game's basic requirements:

• types
  • voiceovers
  • onos / grunts
  • dialog choice hubs
  • chatters
  • dialog line data

See whimsical.

Currently this is what we got:

• voice
  • key: CName
    • fem
      • locale Locale
        • file PathBuf
        • subtitle String
    • male
      • ...

What's left to support:

• scnDialogLineData
  • id: CRUID
  • text: String
  • type: scnDialogLineType
  • speaker: GameObject
  • speakerName: String
  • isPersistent: Bool
  • duration: Float

scnDialogLineData can be combined in an array to create a full dialog, or so it seems.

• scnDialogLineLanguage
  Origin = 0
  Creole = 1
  Japanese = 2
  Arabic = 3
  Russian = 4
  Chinese = 5
  Brasilian = 6
  Swahili = 7
  French = 8
  Polish = 9

• scnDialogDisplayString

  • text: String
  • translation: String
  • preTranslatedText: String
  • postTranslatedText: String
  • language: scnDialogLineLanguage

Audio

• AudioSystem
  • Play
  • Stop
  • Switch
  • Parameter
  • ...
• GameObject
  • PlayVoiceOver
  • PlaySound
  • PlaySoundWithParams
  • StopSound
  • AudioSwitch

CRUID generation needs to be improved for Audioware too.

see Discord

[Roms1383]

according to DllMap on Discord, implementing audio for quests and scenes revolves around:

scnSectionNode. and its a scnDialogLineEvent I believe

the scnscreenplayDialogLine are referenced by the scnDialogEvents and will allow you to do different localizations and include subtitles and such

and i think for which audio to play you put the info in the female\male lipsync animation field. don't know the exact name

Mostly fixed by #23.
