WHAT IS FF7VOICE
FF7Voice is basically a patch to apply Voice-Overs to all the characters and NPC's in FF7 that are tied to the main game's events. The patch works by intercepting the dialog calls of the game and playing the appropriate recorded line from the protected sound archive. The original concept of FF7Voice was suggested by FF7Heart and a proof of concept was put together by Ficedula and perfected by Dziugo.
THE SCRIPT
A full game script was produced for the game by Marc with the help of Tsetra, Revenile and Prince Lex. Our recording will be based on that script and it contains every line by dialog ID and field location in the game as well as battle ID and movie name and timing. DPLB also gave us the list of all of the world map text thanks to his retranslation project. Recording will take place starting with major events of the game and working down from them in order of importance.
The script is based off the PC gamne's original English translation, errors and all. The script is available upon request to those who wish to use it for a FF7 improvement project or for a base for another language translation. Ask Marc for your needs of it.
Permission to use the ff7voice program will however need to be granted from dziugo, the coder for said program if you wihs to do another language version of this project.
