I have no problem stating that I'm just plain tired of about two or three people at most hounding us over and over. I'll play the devil if that's what someone wants, but if we had our own forum I really don't think we'd have to listen to this mess over and over from two people out of 10,000.
It's also unfair to say that we didn't debate this. It's just that the our greek linguists are sick of doing it. The same debate happens over and over and eventually people get tired.
Which is against the law in Kansas now.Quote:

Apart from debates and such, that may or may not become a thread spoiler...
Could the people who have been/ are involved with the Greek Voice Mod take a look on my posts on the previous pages of this thread/ give me a hand?
Note: so far Shigawire is the only one who responsed, but I'd appreciate some comment of others (for example Teleklos Archelaou, Keravnos) who (have) worked on the Voice Mod.
Wankers. The lot of them.Quote:

How is it possible for a language to not change over 1000s of years? Don't the working classes always end up slurring and shortning words? I always thought it was a class thing.
Any how, Greeks rule.
Updated my prior post with some new, more free form in battle statements.
Please continue, if you feel like it. I cannot guarantee if/when this will be used, as I had started to work on my own, but they are VERY GOOD!Quote:

Thanks! Well, I did go on - so there are a few more included with that post. From now till next thursday at least, I won't be updating as I'll be abroad (and I won't be seeing a PC then).Quote:

Well, checked my notes, and it seems that I actually DIDN'T. I have done some other commands you will hear at a later date (can't say more on this), but none of the ones you work on. Must have slipped my mind, sorry. Fill them up at your leisure. :2thumbsup:Quote:

A new update this day, containing 3 new outro sentences.
:idea2:
Since there is most likely also a hardcoded limit to the amount of speeches that the engine can handle, it would be a good idea if that limit was figured out and that a sort of whishlist was created, in which all sentences that definetly should be in, are included.
Hello,
I don't want to beat on a dead horse (this thread is old after all), but I came to this thread through a link in a closed thread in twcenter. I have a great interest in your discussions, but not because I want to change the way you do things, or I want to change your minds on anything, but because the subject is just very close to me and somewhat of a very very mild hobby (partly because I am a Greek and partly because, when I am not playing, the Greek antiquity is my field of work. I am not a philologist though). Your efforts are amazing and I salute your for that. Now to my two questions:
1. Is the Greek voice mod already in the latest EB version (my download has just started)?
2. Is it possible to hear online some of the Greek sentences used, if it is not?
PS: As I said, I don't want to offer my opinion to the whole matter, but having a heated argument on a subject that is nearly as uncertain as the location of the old Hekatompedon on the Acropolis (eventhough everybody knows where it is, they just can't agree on it! :wall: :inquisitive: :laugh4: ) is quite extreme, when it comes to a game. I am looking forward to enjoying Greek in TWR, whether I agree with the opinions of the EB member in charge or not. That is why I salute you again!
PS2: Excuse my ignorance, just in case my questions have been answered thousandfold. I am very new to this whole mod-ing thing.
The Greek voice mod is in the current public build of EB. It has Greek, Latin, and Gallic so far.
Wonderful! :) Thank you for your reply.
