I received the files for my voiced character from the voice actor. They were WAV files.

*I renamed them correctly to each line in the CS.

*Then I placed all the files in a folder and used http://cs.elderscrolls.com/constwiki/index.php/MP3_Conversion_Batch-File tool to convert them to MP3

*This seemed sucessful and I then placed all the new MP3 files in the Data Files in the correct folder....http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n99/Shezrie/voice.jpg


When I check ingame...nothing. His written lines are there, but no voice. I cannot figure out what I may have missed here. I did set up the voice files for another character about two months back and that plays fine, but I cannot remember exactly what I did then. I may have missed something?

When I open one of the new MP3 files in Audacity it says it is 44khz, 64 kbit/second, in mono. This is driving me crazy trying to figure this out. Any help is much appreciated.

Put the following into your archiveinvalidation.txt -file: "sound/Voice/Oblivion.esm/Breton/M/*yourfile.mp3*", where the *yourfile.mp3* is the name of the sound file you want to replace (naturally). Also, if that doesn't work out, try checking the preferences used by the original files and change your custom files according to them (if you haven't already).

Edit: Oh, excuse me, i didn't notice you used a different location that the normal sound/voice/oblivion.esm/.../ ... If the "normal" location doesn't work, try substituting your own into it.

In http://cs.elderscrolls.com/constwiki/images/e/ea/DialogTute-Response.jpg window check if CS detects mp3 file.
