How do you make a speech file or add lines for a empty character

[Donke60]

This is my first try at modding all I want is to make a mod that takes a existing character but gives him new speech lines when the mod is active also the character only has no speech file. What do I do.

[. . .]

@Donke60 I presume you want to give Wes a speech, voice & ability to talk, yes? If so then this is what you do.

In your mod is folder add the folder in this zip Wes Speech.zip

and in your modmain.lua add this code.

AddPrefabPostInit("wes", function(inst)
if not GLOBAL.TheWorld.ismastersim then
return 
end
inst:RemoveTag("mime")
inst.soundsname = "wallace"
STRINGS.CHARACTERS.WES = require "speech_wes"
end)

That should give Wes a unused voice that sounds like a violin & speech (though it's Wilsons you'll have to customize it)

question where did you get this file  i've never seen it before

[. . .]

@Donke60 Never mind my other post I just went ahead & made the mod for you

Here I tested it & I think it worked fine, it shouldn't crash

Wes Speech Mod by Donke60.zip

The only thing is the modicon is my character's modicon so you'll have to change that yourself with a paint software, you'll also have to edit the lines in speech_wes in scripts make sure to not delete any commas in the speech file when you're editing it or else the game will 100% crash, so have fun .

Also, if it crashes tell me then I can try to fix it if I can

Since it's a very simple mod it should work on all Don't Starves, but I didn't check if it works with Don't Starve. Maybe enable the mod & check it yourself ?

will do

Alright just tested the mod showed up I enabled it then it would go into a loading screen but when I picked wes and loaded up the game Wes acted normally and every time I went to the mod and hit enabled then it refreshed and went back to make sure it was automaticly disabled though it did show combabilty with villnia DS and RoG so it won't work in single player

Dang, i'm sorry but I wouldn't know how to get it to work in singleplayer because I only modded for DST before... Maybe you should ask for help in the singleplayer mod forums? I don't know, i'm so sorry man ...
