Do you have a strict attention to detail, free time and typing skills? Do you want to be a credited contributor to a mod that adds soundsets?

I'm looking for assistance typing out dialogue to give subtitles to in game soundsets.

In particular, I'm considering making a mod that adds the BG2 NPC soundsets and the PST soundsets located on one of the four download pages here:
http://www.sorcerers...x_soundsets.php

What would be required would be listening to the dialogue and transcribing it into a text file in a specific format.
The file must be in a specific order with all the right format (weidu tra format) to be usable in game.

If you are interested in this leave a note here with which one you are interested in doing.

The available ones I'm looking for are: (if you volunteer for one I'll put your name next to it)

Aerie
Anomen
Cernd
Edwin
Edwin (Female)
Haer'Dalis
Imoen
Irenicus
Jaheira
Jan
Keldorn
Korgan
Mazzy
Minsc
Nalia
Sarevok
Valygar
Viconia
Yoshimo

Annah
Dakkon
The Nameless One
Vhailor

All these soundsets are available through the link above at sorcerors.net, they will be the ones I intend to use, if you re-rip them directly from the games they may be different.

I can also include other soundsets if you want to transcribe something else outside of the ones above.

In the next post I'll describe the format needed.

TRA file information

The numbering after the @ 0-31 are needed in that specific order as well as the strings which specify which filename the sounds correspond to.

For example the first line is:
@0 = ~[soldiera] This is MY world! You are not welcome in MY world!~ [soldiera]

If you play soldiera.wav in the move you will hear the words "This is MY world! You are not welcome in MY world!" and so on.

Please note that if the soundset has extra files not referenced in the below example, they are not needed.
0-31 must be those file names from the sample.

So in my sound set soldier9 is not needed and the entry for that is not in the example tra file.
