Came here to find out whether that is the case. I’m hoping with the delay that they can work something out with John Boyega to return to the series as a Jedi Knight trained by Rey.
EDIT: I know for myself and some other people the “And I will be your protocol droid!” line replacement didn’t sound 100% accurate for the scene so I regenerated it for us - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1oisZaO1lv20F1Yv8M9EBMMppyd5nW5c0/view?usp=sharing
Wow I think that’s definitely better.
Are you at least still able to replace the take of “And I will be your protocol droid”? Imo this one sounds a lot better than what we had for v1/2

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.
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.
Alright, this first one I think is much more lively: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BAby-wWzn8eaW6ycGDBbNpU4_okirxXv/view?usp=sharing
And here is an alternative that might tie in with his concerned behavior about this mission from the beginning of the film (the whole, “If I don’t return, know that you have been my best friend” thing): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1KNC2eAboC_1RjA0V94zS_A6akj_CtPWR/view?usp=sharing
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.
This sounds good to me: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1wL6ItoD8EYQ38LRaETjhsZH4acwG2Pdh/view?usp=sharing
Hopefully I’ll have the Poe stuff ready later today.
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.
Hold up, did we not finish the 3PO stuff?
Yeah, here is what I last had (5 total lines):

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.
I might be able to find an audio source for him. I haven’t tried yet. Although I’m not sure what he could say instead of “Well, let’s find out.”
EDIT: Perhaps something like - “Well, I might know.”
Yet another thing I’d love to see in the film (I put it in my novelization) but isn’t exactly feasible based on our available materials.
Keep these ideas coming everyone. I’m (kinda) purposely holding off on purchasing Elevenlabs again until I’m sure it’s just the Poe lines we are changing.
Ben is another one of those characters where I’m not sure there is suitable material.
Using only the maskless dialog from Lego TFA doesn’t give good results. Adam has an audio book but it doesn’t sound like him at all for some reason. I tried his TED talk but there’s too much background noise on his AI voice. Honestly, I think the only option would be to trim his TLJ lines out of that movie and use some software to remove all background noise.
I love that idea I did the same thing in my novelization.
Unfortunately I’m not aware of any suitable material from the actress.
I like Nev’s a lot. What would I need to regenerate in order to get that delivery? All of it?
It could potentially be changed to something about heavily modified weaponry. But yeah the cannons themselves do play a big role at the end and they would come out of absolutely nowhere if not directly mentioned here.
From what I can tell it was only the SSD. Everything seems to be running great. Now I have more storage, and I got a free Windows upgrade to boot.
I just got my laptop back tonight. The SSD on it got fried this past Sunday. Luckily I backed up a lot of the audio source files for AI on my drive. And of course most of it still exists on the ElevenLabs site itself. Like I said, hopefully I can get to it this weekend but no promises.
I believe some EQ / general audio work might be able to solve that. I particularly like the current Jedi line delivery so I’d ideally like to preserve it.
Thanks!
BTW, do you mean the voice is crispier and cracklier or is there some AI residue in the background?
I just started up a new job but I can try to get to that this weekend.
The Falcon crashes way harder in TFA on Starkiller Base so I’m not sure it’s worth all that effort.
Come to think of it, it’s kinda strange that the Falcon didn’t need repairs after that. Chewbacca realistically shouldn’t have been able to pick up Rey and Finn because he’d be stranded haha. But that’s neither here nor there.
Okay, I’ll send you something at some point this weekend! Just make sure it’s really buried in there haha.
Here’s how that might sound as a whole (10,000+ tokens later, Benecio really needs to record better stuff lol):

Seeing as how it will be covered by music, sound FX, and other voices, I don’t think the mild audio issues on the latter half will be noticeable at all. But for something shorter and relatively flawless, I really like the sign in on its own:

I can DM you this stuff as well, Hal. The only reason I don’t want to submit my own voice is because once I hear it I would instantly be out taken of the movie experience haha. I’ve done theater a lot in my life, and I’m one of those people that can’t stand viewing their own performances.
