I'm putting together a mission, which I hope will go over well with the community. http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/smile_o.gif

I need 5 voice actors, male or female, with North American accents. Smallest part is a few lines. Biggest part is several dozen lines.

Don't volunteer if you're not serious about this or if it's going to take you 6 months to do. I've put in more than enough overtime getting this mission and a few others ready.

An audio technician might be needed to give these sound files a background radio cackle/static sound.

To apply, please email me a sample sound file, giving your rendition of this line by a pilot that's just downed an enemy plane in a dogfight and still has plenty of adrenaline going through his/her system:

"Good Kill! Good Kill! Pilot's ejected. Good chute spotted."

I prefer the file in OGG format, suitable for playing in OFP. However, you can send it as an MP3 or WAV file, if necessary.

Mail it to me at: theavonlady@<hidden>

To help the voices recruitment if you don&#39;t find enough actors, you can use this program (http://www.readplease.com/) (the normal version is freeware, the "plus" version is shareware) .

It should help http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/smile_o.gif

Thanks. I&#39;m familar with these TTS programs as well as the usual TTS websites, where you can create the files on the fly without installing anything. If you&#39;ll search the forums, you&#39;ll see a few existing threads on TTS.

But I want this to be as real as possible.

C&#39;mon folks&#33; Don&#39;t be shy&#33; And it won&#39;t hurt&#33; http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/biggrin_o.gif

No one wants to take on even the itty-bitty little parts? http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/rock.gif http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/sad_o.gif

I think I&#39;ve got a mike around somewhere. I&#39;ve only done it once before though. But I&#39;m willing to give it a try... I&#39;ve got class now though, so I won&#39;t be getting you the sample file until this afternoon.

Not really because to correct job description is not in the list there.

So I tried opening a thread on OFPEC&#39;s beta missions forum and faster than you can say "place that turd&#39;s IP address on the ban list", the thread was closed by the moderator, telling me to use the recruiting page, with the lacking job role.

I mean it would take them a minute to add "Voice Acting" to the dropdown list.

*chiding tone* You know Avon Lady, all it takes is asking nicely. http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/tounge_o.gif
The guys that locked the thread are just doing their job to the standard you all expect of them.

We&#39;ve added "Voice Actor" & "Other".

Next time, politely approach one of the Admins about it. We&#39;re not ogres and are willing to help out where we can. http://forums.bistudio.com/oldsmileys/wink_o.gif
