    Thanks for acknowledgment​, I was hoping people would be inspired so we could all get more soundsets.

    I'm looking forward to trying this out.

    I have encountered error in my installation: 
    Appending to files column-wise ...
Cannot append column-wise because there are 48 lines in CHARSND.2da but I was only given 28 things to append
Stopping installation because of error.

    I have SOD included and it seems that the snd_copy function is unable to update the string 'snd_columntype', so there are only 28 terms stored.

    I have tried to move the string update out of the function and it seems to work.

    Updated to v2.0 with *EE v2.6+ compatibility.

    Note: v2.0 will NOT work on older versions of the EEs. For older versions, please use v1.0.

    The 1.0 link is broken. It has an extra right paren ) after 1.0.

    Slight error in the setup.tra that blocks the install, one line reads "@106 = ~NWN2: Female 6 (generic)~ßß"
  • SatrhanSatrhan Member Posts: 78
    Had the same, removing those last two symbols fixed it.

    @Brokenkatana - Sorry! That slipped in during the packaging process.

    v2.2 is available now with the invalid character error fixed.
