About this mod

I decided to try my hand at making a voice pack for Dragonborn Voice Over for my character Caladin. Caladin is a young Nord male with a strong sense of justice and honor while having the enthusiasm and inquisitive nature of youth and I tried to create a voice that reflected that. I've been a big fan of the Vampire DBVO pack as well as the Elas DBVO pack and have been using both of them for quite a while. However I always felt that the Vampire voice was better suited for an older more mature Dragonborn and used Elas for my younger more youthful characters. Yet for Caladin I wanted something along the lines of some of my favorite game character voices such as Cloud strife and Cal Kestus to name a couple.

Caladin's voice was made using the generate new voice feature of 11Labs and after quite a bit of trial and error I finally got the result I wanted.
I want to clarity that NO VOICES WERE CLONED AND NO SPECIFIC CHARACTER NAMES WERE USED IN THE PROMPT TO GENERATE THIS VOICE. It is a unique voice generated by me.

I made Caladin's voice pack for my own personal enjoyment and created patches for my own personal mod list. I have never posted a mod before and never thought if I did it would  involve an AI voice. I understand that the use of AI can be a touchy subject and I understand if this mod is not for you, however I decided to share this voicepack because I thought others who use DBVO may also enjoy it. With that said Caladin wouldn't be possible without others paving the way and I want to thank MathieMay for making DBVO, xXFEARTCBXx, AuctorLucan, isophe and Firebeard17 for making my favorite voice packs and patches!

I have also made a PC Headtracking pack, though not all categories have audio (it's mostly the specific conditions for combat and magic that are empty). I really enjoy using the hotkey feature to say hello and goodbye to npc's.

In addition I have used the amazing voice work of CaseyTheVa and his Skyrim SE Player Re-Voiced mod and repacked them in to the proper file structure to replace the player's grunt's and exertions and all shouts for the base game, Dawnguard and Dragonborn. So your Dragonborn will now have shouts and grunts that fit nicely along side Caladin's voice.  I also made two optional versions where I re-pitched them down -2 semitones if you want a slighter deeper voice for shouts and grunts.  *personally I prefer the original pitch for Caladin, I had previously re-pitched them down to use along side the Elas voice pack.

Due to the nature of AI voicing some lines may not play and while I have done some cursory testing I have not play tested every patch.
I also want to mention that this mod is provided as is and I will not be able to offer support or help troubleshooting. If you find a line of dialogue that is really bad -
i.e: sounds out of context, is garbled or otherwise awful you can post it provided with which mod the line is from. I can't guarantee if or when I'll fix it but this will help me identify lines needing to be re-generated. As I play my own game I will be re-generating lines I'm unhappy with and will update the patches periodically. 

I am not taking any mod requests.(well maybe...)
*If I make any new addon patches for my own list I will of course post them here.

Installation:
Install Dragonborn Voice Over
(Optional but Recommended) - Install Dragonborn Voice Over (DBVO) - Plugin replacer (Select stereo or surround based on your setup) let it overwrite DBVO
Install Caladin DBVO Voice Pack Main file
Install DBVO - Caladin - Skyrim base game and DLC fixes - Load Plugins after DBVO
Install Addon patches (any or all that you need/want)
(Optional but Recommended) Install PC Headtracking , then Install PC Headtracking Caladin
(Optional but Recommended) Install Caladin - Dragonborn Grunts Re-voiced (or Caladin - Dragonborn Grunts Re-voiced - RePitched -2 Semitones)
                                                    Install Caladin - Dragonborn Shouts Re-voiced (or Caladin - Dragonborn Shouts Re-voiced - Re-Pitched -2 semitones)
In Game - Open DBVO MCM and Select Caladin voice
In-Game - Open Pc Headtracking MCM set B.Y.O. Voice type - to ON, set sliders for chance to play to your preference. (I use 100% for all).
                  Check to enable Low Health Warning Bleed Out bug Fix - If you use a Death Alternative mod such as Soul Resurrection.
                  (Optional but Recommended) hot key Hello and Good bye, (I personally use num pad 1 & 3 so it doesn't overwrite Jaxonz Positioner hot keys)
                  So you can greet NPC's or say goodbye to them.

*A note on Load order for addon patches - Generally for DBVO it doesn't matter for any voice patch that doesn't have a plugin. However redundant lines do occur and the mod with the highest priority will provide the voice for the given line. In my own set up playing and testing my load order is exactly as the Mods covered List. If yours varies it will probably be fine but may yield different variations of line delivery than what I hear in game. If you use Simply Knock be sure to load the Simply Knock Patch after it, the plugin must be lower than Simply Knock and DBVO as they are both masters. As far as PC Headtracking and my patch I load them before DBVO but it shouldn't matter if you load it later, they are independent of each other.

Here's a brief video demo of Caladin's voice.


Meeting Lydia Voice Demo


As I said, I have only made patches to cover my own mod list. I have provided a voice sample pack to be used to clone Caladin's voice so you can make your own patches. Feel free to post them here on the Nexus, Just be sure to require my main mod as the master (you only need to upload the sound files).  While I have not made any patches for "Adult Content" mods, if that's your thing go for it, just please use appropriate tags if you decide to share them. Please do not upload my mod or patches anywhere outside the Nexus, thank you.

Settings for DBVO Voice Pack Maker: You should use Stability 75, Similarity (Clarity)75, and Eleven Multilingual v2 to generate lines. All of the lines were initially generated with this setting. *I would like to note then when I regenerate specific lines I may set Stability to 50 to get more varied delivery when I'm not getting the results I want at 75.

I have also included a blank player name topic file so you will use your own player name. Thank you to 0KEED0 for his work on discovering ways to make
different previously unvoiced dialogue lines functional. This is just a copy of the blank name file he provides. To use replace all instances of <Alias=Player> with your character name. I did include an addon patch for Caladin's name in case anyone wants to use it for themselves, but as far as I know no voiced followers recognize this name.

Recommended Mod: Dragonborn Voice Over (DBVO) - Plugin replacer . I play with headphones so I personally use the stereo plugin.

Thanks for looking and I hope you enjoy the mod should you decide to give it a try!
