Description
Mod ID: 1242850029

I was a little disappointed that the quarians wouldn’t be coming to ME: A’s single player so I made this voice pack to help add to Mass Effect tactics (aka XCOM 2).

The mod adds an effect to three voicebanks to make them sound more like the quarians from the Mass Effect series. As always, the voice lines won’t sound as good as lines ripped straight from the game, but they should sound close enough.

*Caution* No quarian slang (I tried to piece one together, but it sounded horrible)
-Exception: Quarian Male 2 says Keelah se'lai
*Warning* Explicit language for the female voice

==Features==
Radio effect applied
  • Quarian Male 1: Matt Mercer (500 lines from XCOM 2’s American English 6)
  • Quarian Male 2: Adam Baldwin (350 lines from Halo 3: ODST)
    ==Used assets from TeK DeLorean’s Halo: ODST Voicepack (see Credits section for link)
  • Quarian Female: Claudia Black (500 lines from Gears of War 3, Uncharted 2&3 and Dragon Age Origins)
    ==Used assets from WalkerTexasRanger’s Uncharted Chloe Voice Pack (see Credits section for links)


==Known Issue with Female Voice==
-Only 1 voice line for Low Ammo (should be fine as this is more of a reminder anyways)
-Some lines (~10%) have had their volume noticeably reduced (this is intentional because even after equalization, the lines were painful to listen to at normal volume. At default audio settings, the lines can still be heard; they are just noticeably reduced)

==Future Plans==
Add a female voicebank to the salarian sounding mod (no ETA, but I am working on it)
A turian sounding voice pack with less synth (no ETA, but I am working on it)

==Q and A==
Q: Will you do the rest of the American English 6 voicebank?
A: No. Each XCOM 2 voicebank has 1775 voice lines, which is way too many lines to work through. Furthermore, the quarian sound effect causes a lot of audio errors when it is applied to a voice line so the line count increase wouldn’t be worth the amount of time I would have to put in.

Q: Will you do voicepack mods for the other Mass Effect species?
A: I have no current plans to do the other species.

==Audio Errors==
Please let me know if the audio level needs to be adjusted. As I said in the known issues, I know that some lines in the female voice are low (this was intentional), but if the whole female voice needs to be turned up then I can try to turn it up in small increments.

All of discover ME's videos were made private, I'm guessing a month or so before I want to get into audacity. sad.

@wargamesmaster
Technically, yes. But only for the regular XCOM soldiers.

If you want it for your faction hero soldiers (reapers, skirmishers, templars), you're better off downloading my WoTC version because it has extra stuff in the ini and localization to make it available to the faction heroes.

This mod works with WotC?

thanks for making this! i have some regular soldiers modded to look like skirmishers but they sound like normal people, and this makes the perfect voice effect to make em sound like a proper skirmisher! much love <3

Wicked! thanks man, looking forward to the new compilation pack, sounds grate!

@The Last Titan, Voice mods in general should work with WoTC, but it might give you an error symbol on the launcher. However, the voices won't work with the hero classes unless you ini edit the files in the Config and Localization folders.

I'm also working on a WoTC compilation pack so you could also wait for that if you want (should be finished within a month or two)
