About
I replaced Uriel Septim's voice lines for my own new playthrough of Skygerfall. The voice acting (by oracus0) for the original Skygerfall mod was much better, obviously, and much more expressive, but it was also tinny (due to his mic or poor quality acoustic foam) and too young for the bald character model.
The new voice lines were synthesised in ElevenLabs, using a voice cloned on samples taken from TES IV: Oblivion. They are imperfect.
The sample audio is here for anyone who wants to take a crack at synthesising lines in ElevenLabs themselves. I didn't do anything fancy for the sample, I just recorded gameplay footage with sfx and music off.
If you plan to create better lines yourself,
↪ Check the pinned post here for fixing the lipsync generation in CreationKit SE, and remember to downgrade CK versions if you're using the Steam version using this tool.
↪ Link me when you're done so I can use your mod instead too.
Manual Installation
Comparisons
Don't judge my visuals—this isn't how I usually play. It's just a vanilla load order for the sake of better representing the mod.
For comparison, the original voice at 2:39:

- The American rhotic R keeps seeping in.
- It's nowhere near as emotive as the real Sir Patrick Stewart in Oblivion. To cope, I tell myself that in Oblivion his sons have all just died and he's about to as well, so it's natural to sound much wearier and emotional.
- I would have liked to have sampled the old bloke playing Uriel in the original Daggerfall opening video, but the audio quality is too poor for decent voice cloning.
