[Bug] Gaps of silence between lines
Ward
Member Posts: 1,305
Current Behaviour:
When clicking on CHARNAME, depending on the number of lines they have for that particular action, there is a gap between their last and their first (THIS IS ONLY A PROBLEM FOR THE ORIGINAL BG1 VOICESETS. The BG2 voicesets have more lines).
This also happens with some NPCs (as in non recruitable NPCs, when you right click on them to hear their lines).
Expected Behaviour:
When a character voices their last line, their next should be their first. This gap between lines may be due to the 'Easter Egg' lines given to NPCs (party members). As CHARNAME does not have these lines, there has to be a gap between voiced dialogue to compensate.

In BGEE, however, it seems all the "SELECT" selection or action sounds are organized very neatly for the NPCs, so it's very easy to see that there are 3 unassigned SELECT_COMMON (Command) sounds. In-game this could mean that even with the "Always" checked for Command sounds, you'll still get "blanks" when clicking on the NPC... But... BGEE is smarter than BG1. ;-)
The other thing that BG1 has is static cycling of the sounds, so those "gap" sounds would occur as you said- always after the last assigned sound and then return to the first. Now the click-on-NPC sounds are random just like the click-on-ground-to-move-NPC sounds... which keeps it interesting. ;-)
IIRC there are no gaps in vanilla BG1, or vanilla BG2, but when you use EasyTutu the originals operate under the assumption there are more lines than actually exist and therefore have blankss.
Thanks for clearing this up Bhryaen!
