Talking Characters

[Lahire149]

. As you may recall in the E3 videos, the demostration showed the Gamn speaking some words then he began to talk in german, ect. I also recent saw this in "I'm still seeing Breen."
. I was wondering how can i bring up something that allows me to cause the characters to speak what i want them to speak? And does it work with all characters? or just teh Gman? Is this done in model veiwer or Hammer? I have basically no knowledge of these programs.

German? Wasn't it Chinese?

Anyway, I cant really help you with this, and its not as easy as you think...

Actually, it's fairly easy. You can't get them to say what you want, but you can get them to say any of the premade speaches for a character.

For instance, make Gman recite Eli's "Why if it isn't Gordon Freeman?" welcome speach. Of course, it would be in Eli's voice, but it would be coming out of Gmans mouth.

Sadly, I don't know how to do this by heart. It takes a bit of console commands. I'm positive you can find a guide on the net though. That's how I found out.

u said he can only recite other's speechs...but in the movie "I'm Still Seeing Breen" he sings all of the lyrics (lipsyncs at least) to the song So Cold.

just download the Source SDK, and open it up and choose Face Poser. You can create any scene you like in it
