Allow easy use of alt language soundsets in English versions

So I noticed in playing around that some of the non english language soundsets are really good. They fit my characters perfectly. Even if I don't understand what they are saying, I dont think that is a problem (i dont understand some words Viconia uses for example) especially in a fantasy setting, where we can pretend it is the language of thier native homeland.

I would love easy access to use these voice sets without changing the language options.
I'm pretty sure a lot of people wont even realize that they exist

    You, and anyone else who wants them, could go to your game directory, open the "lang" folder, open one of individual language folders (for examples "ru_RU" is Russian,) open the "sounds" folder within, then copy all the voice files, paste them into a new folder, then go through the voice sets and rename them (for example "Female1a" would become "RusFem1a", "Female1b" would become "RusFem1b" and so on [just remember to keep the last letter on each file the same, as it is what determines what action the file is used for.]) Once you'r edone renaming all the files then all you have to do is paste them into to the English "sounds" folder within the "en_Us" folder, within the "lang" folder. Then all the copied Voicesets will appear in the English language character creation setup.
