Title: Fleet Operations 3.0 - Voice Actors Needed
Post by: DOCa Cola on November 03, 2004, 07:14:00 PM
We are nearing completion of our main todos for the upcoming version of Fleet Operations. As you know the dominion is quite far advanced now in development - but as we looked through our list we noticed we have 5 more voice actors for dominion vessels missing.

So if you are interested in getting your voice in the game just send me a mail to docacola@fleetops.net with a voice sample attached -> like "we serve the dominion" or whatever a vessel could reply during game. (in .wav or .mp3 format or whatever you prefer).
Females and ppl with decent sounding voices are preferred  ^_^

So just power on your microphones and start sending in your applications now!

Update:
0 remaining, thx to everyone for your samples
We have had 15 submissions till now and are deciding now which voices fit our needs :) just watch your inboxes for mails

i DID make some recordings but my stupid microphone makes alot of backround noise  


Title: Fleet Operations 3.0 - Voice Actors Needed
Post by: Krimza on November 06, 2004, 02:11:22 AM
Just a thought.....  Construction mining and science type ships should use a Vorta type voice (realy anoying and  whining) and the battleships using a Jem'Hadar type voice (a deep voice saying the ususal rederick like "obdience brings victory" "Victory is life" "we live to serve the founders"  and "we go into battle to claim our lives" and such).

Well, I have never participated in anything like this before, but I thought it would be fun to submit something...   so I sent a couple of files in.

I thought it would be fun to be involved, since I play the game so much.

Anyway, I know the record quailty isn't great, but that can be fixed.   I hope you enjoy...

there are no "winners" yet, we have a selection of 15 ppl right now who send in voice sets, therefore it takes some time who will be selected, i will let you know asap. we have had many good applications (all so far were good) only with a few problems like too less sounds were sent, bad recording quality related to mic or the way it was saved so i couldn't rate the voices entirely. i emailed those already with some suggestions about how to fix that.

Oh balls, ive missed the deadline, and i just got a swish new microphone as well  :(  Oh well, its probably best, as my recorded voice is probably more suited to the Romulans then the dominion  ;)

Anyway, even though its long overdue, i thought i'd make a small $36 (or £20 in real money ;)) contribution to such as great project... have a few beers (or cokes) on me :D

Keep up the great work, cant wait for the final result!

Breen ships can be seen in the NPR test map.

Welcome to the Forums.

Its actuly a fairly new Adobe program, but it has been around for a long time as cool edit. Recently Adobe baught the rights to it, I had cool edit and I got ot upgrade to Audition for free.

Title: Fleet Operations 3.0 - Voice Actors Needed
Post by: cts006 on November 13, 2004, 09:49:19 PM
I think the cardies will apear in an avatar for the dominion.

The Miranada calss and other TMP era ships will not be buildable, atleast not from the tech tree, yards might be added to be used as map items.

Side note, You will be the one getting owned (nothing personal, but your new and even if youve been playing offline for a year with beta 2, that wont mean much online, against people who have played online with beta 2 for a year.), lmao.

lol,i used to play it all the time...(unmoded), i hav been playin wolfie enemy ter online for a year or so, then i was bored 1 nite spotted ur mod and enjoyed it so i hav been playin that alot lately.so i chop and change, but if u could give me or tell me a way to play this online mate am all ears..i will enjoy a good challenge or humpin lol. how do u take screen shots way this...i played a superb game today,,,went klingon,,on nirvana 2..3 enemies..only mediums tho lol...stole a borg construction vessel....then buily 2 transwarp hubs way 5 gates as there is only 10 credits...and sent cubes threw the gates to steel al the other races construction vessels...took over 5 squares on the map..linked way the transwarp gates..he he...and the final battles were a mixture of all the ships i got from all the races,,no borg ships tho..makes it to easy..klingon romulan and fed fleet..6 full fleets of 16..and sent them in at the rear of there bases threw transwarp gates and wiped em out..all my worm holes were protected by mant turrets pluss space station...so i had no ships on the defence lol. it was a great game..not had a game like that for a while.


ps is there more maps to follow?

Title: Fleet Operations 3.0 - Voice Actors Needed
Post by: cts006 on November 13, 2004, 11:52:44 PM
phew...

Doca, can we mby get this moved into anotehr topic of some kind? (Starting with maby the post above this, mby mocv it to some where in small talk)

Unmodded is alot diferent, even if you have plenty of offline fleet ops experience, online is still alot diferent in many ways.

there is 10 credits for a reason, its to limit things like trans warp gates, the option i belive to extend it up to 15 will be added in an up comming version.

Transwarp hubs do make it easy to totaly assimilate, not destory a base but assimilate them dnt they.

Maps are player made mostly. If you want more maps, makem and send them to Doca at docacola@fleetops.net, or look around the map forum for some maps made by other players, many of wich should be included with the next version.
