I don’t really see making a change like that anyway. Also, it’s my intention that once we get V3 out of the way, it’ll be the final revision of this project. This project has been a ride, and we did way more with it than we thought possible. I would like to take advantage of the un-arbitrary fixes currently being developed, but to avoid large, new ideas and let this come to a solid, final form. After all, it’ll be there for anyone else to pick up and work from. But I want to bring the ST to the same place I am very close to bringing the PT for me: complete finalization and set-down-forever-ness.

In that case, I can promise I’ll do the Poe stuff this weekend. Other than that, I think we’ve hit everything in the v3 change list.

Hey sounds good. There will be… a lot… of prep work needed with all the subtitles and audio tracks to adjust sync for. So even once it’s all done it’ll realistically take me probably a few months to get it all ready.

And I may need to take a break from all things SW and fan editing somewhere in there. But I’m committed to finishing all projects already started. And at least the fake episode 10.

Hold up, did we not finish the 3PO stuff?

Yeah, here is what I last had (5 total lines):

I may just not have checked that item off. But I know I have the 3PO lines. Thank you for reposting them.

Here’s a thought that just struck me. Would it be ideal to change Threepio’s line from “I’m going with Mistress Rey on her very first mission” to “I’m going with Mistress Rey on her mission?” Technically the first mission Leia and the Resistance assigned her was to get Luke out of hiding.

The name’s Lawson. Noah Lawson.

It’s also in the novelization that Rey occasionally tags along on Poe and Finn’s Falcon missions. So yeah, it’s straight up false information by him in canon.

Up to Hal though.

It’s the sort of thing that I’ve done things about before, like the line about Kylo Ren slaughtering Luke’s students.

If the line replacement sounds good and fits, I’m okay with it! Maybe, “R2, have you heard? I am going with Mistress Rey on a very important mission.”

It sounds pretty lifeless; I’d wonder if R2 broke him.

Tbh, that was the only one that didn’t have him take a breath between sentences before I had to step away. For obvious reasons, that would be an issue.

I think what I’ll do when I return is split the two sentences into separate generations and focus on emotion.

Here is my first draft for Poe: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1H-k1hhBjOiGbNoze_8V9S8lySx60wGTi/view?usp=sharing

I had to change the wording for the final sentence because otherwise it came out sounding too much like prequel dialog. Keep in mind that it’s split up by sentence, so point out which sentence (if any) needs to be generated again based on the other sentences around it.

Personally, I’m not happy with the first sentence yet but everything else sounds good to me.

I will bake those into clips as soon as I am able, which I never know when will be. But thank you.

No problem. I prefer this alternative for “His followers have been building something for years” - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mGAU3XCR00hhYwWhoNat3lBE3gfjwgxa/view?usp=sharing

I believe the rest of his lines (the ones about Exegol) were already generated from the last go around so those should still be there. In fact, I’m pretty sure I already generated “He calls it the Final Order” before but it doesn’t hurt to have it again.

These are impressively accurate to the real deal! 🤩

I think the line for 3PO after his memory is restored sounds great once put into the timeline, adjusting pitch a little to match the surrounding dialogue and adding 3PO motor/gear sounds.

Unfortunately, the existing line, “It seems diplomacy is not our specialty” is too long to fit nicely into the scene as it is. Also, the line in V2 for the exchange between 3PO and the trooper has some silly humor but our line seems to be flat in context. Like it should be funny but is played straight. So I think I’ll leave it as we had it for V2. (I honestly cannot remember what the scene was for V1; does anyone remember? lol)

And the dialogue for Poe. Even though what we had before seemed cheesy, I think the reworked lines are even more so. With what we had prior, Poe clearly says this is a stockpile of old destroyers and then says they’ve been modified with cannons. The new one seems to be less clear about these things. I think at the end of the day one has to accept that a huge fleet of Star Destroyers like that is just kind of dumb regardless. So I intend to use what JJB has already generated before.

All things considered, I’m declaring V3 ‘sync-locked,’ which will let me chip away at the arduous task of adjusting all the subtitle and audio tracks. It’ll still be a while for that reason, but V3 and this project’s full culmination will be nigh.

any chance of adding qui-gon to the other force ghosts helping rey at the end?

I honestly prefer the original, or at least am used to it and didn’t feel it needed replacing. It’s a bit more animated.

Can’t say I’m married to it though. Anyone else have a preference?
