Voice_EN

If you want to make your own voice pack for Techmino, please refer to the guidelines in this document.

1. Filenames

**You can record multiple files for every single kind of voice. The game will randomly pick one to play during the game. **

For voices that are used to combine with other voices, please refer to the description carefully to avoid any unwanted effects.

e.g. multiple “mini” files should be named like mini_1.ogg，mini_2.ogg…

If there is only one file, you can omit the _1 in the file name (mini.ogg).

The number suffix cannot be omitted when there are multiple files on a single voice (starting from _1).

If you want to submit your voice pack to our repository, please use .wav format.

If you want to import your voice pack into the game, please de-noise, trim, and adjust volumes for these files, and convert them to .ogg format.

2. What to Record

N.B. In this document, the phonetic guides for British English use Danial-Jones revised English IPA. The phonetic guides for American English use pronunciation respellings.

The British English IPA was adapted from Oxford English Dictionary Received Pronunciations.

The American English respellings were adapted from Merriam-Webster American English pronunciations.
