Thanks for this - will definitely use. From what I can hear Eli Gabay's voice > Michael Sunczyk.

By a long way.

However, the "remastered" voice recordings aren't just badly cast I think they have technical issues too. The microphone sounds like it's too close to Michael Sunczyk's mouth. I can hear the creaminess of his mouth sometimes. Noob technicians hired to work on a "remaster" pffft.

I'm glad that this mod helps so may of you to enjoy the game once again :3

Thank you so much! The campaign upon replay was hitting the uncanny valley for me. It looked and sounded a lot like it should... but it wasn't quite it. Unnerving clash between reality and expectation from memories. This fixes all of it. Again, thank you!

Without this mod i can't even play shittest gerbox version! Thank you!

Just what i nead >:))))

The new VO sounds a bit too much like "im trying to sound sensitive and emotionally engaged"
While the old VO sounded more direct and to the point, a highly trained, intelligent and "no bullshit" woman with merely a hint of emotion behind her new shell as the mothership.
The new one tries to sound human.
The old one simply played the role it was assigned, very well.

True, Eli Gabay's voice is just on point. I wonder why would they even bother to change anything.

It's amazing how big an impact voice acting can have. There are relatively few lines in this game, but the original delivery in HW2 just conveyed a lot more emotion than the remastered version. Thanks!

Yup, you're right, didn't notice that part. Alredy updated, thanks!

Thanks for the great mod, however i did notice one tiny flaw: after completing mission 9 fleet intelligence says "priority alert, jamming signal detected!" when the carrier captures my namesake. I think it sounded a lot like the new fleet intelligence.

This really sounds alot better thanks :D

I had exact same feelings, that's what made me create this mod!

The way some things are pronounced in the remastered version is like nails down a chalkboard compared to my memory of how things sounded when I played this last. :S
Thanks for sorting that out!

Thanks, check out also Karan's VO mod :)

I must admit I was skeptical, but the old voice just seems more on-point ... gj!

Awesome! This helps a ton since I was like 12 the last time I played the original Homeworld games

Sunshine you can check out the video now.

I'm working on it now, will make comparioson of my both mods combined.

Would love to see a video comparison for the audio

Fare. I'm still replaying the HW1R story not got to HW2R yet :p

Absynth.81 this mod only replaces Fleet Intelligence voiceover, not Fleet Command (S'jet) ;)
Although I'm now working on Karan's voice too, because new lines of Heidi Ernest sound nowhere near as good as her original HW1 lines and Jennifer Graveness's HW2 lines.

Lol that defeats the coolness of the remastered voice. The original hw2 had a different gal voicing karen sjet because the actress from hw1 was pregnant at the time. With the remastered they got the original actress for karen sjet to redo the voice for both 1 and 2. so you could argue that the remastered version voice is more authentic than the classic hw2... but heh each to their own pref I guess.

cool and thanks i prefer the old voices from HW2 classic rather than remastred

KHORNE BEZERKER sure, I'm now working on it.

Any chance you could also restore karen's old voice too ?

HunterEn1gma I dont think I can do anything about HW1 because it already has the original voiceover.

Good work! And can you also make one for the HW1?

Nice stuff. Missed the original VO very much. Thanks! Subbed.
