[SOUND MOD] BFV German announcer

This mod replaces the German announcer with the German (DE) localization announcer from Battlefield V. Since Enlisted and BFV don’t have a 1:1 match in voice lines, some lines are substituted with the closest equivalents. Train Escort mode voice lines remain untouched, as they aren’t used in regular matchmaking and BFV has no equivalent mode.

Update V2.1:

  • Adjusted overall volume
  • Replaced some repetitive lines
  • Added vanilla volume option

Looks promising!

Will test and give feedback.

I personally was planning to do this too since Getmans didn’t say “Charlie” or “Alpha”, but used Caesar and Anton instead and it has been annoying me since forever.

Now there’s Japan left with Alufa and Chali as well…

BFV had Japan as well, planning to do them next but probably I will do USSR first before doing US and then Japan. The thing is, BFV had localized announcer for many different language such as English, Italian, Brazillian Portuguese, Russian, Spanish European, Spanish Mexican, French, Japanese, and Polish.

Tested it.

Sounds good linguistically wise, but incredibly loud and over-distorted.

Did you change the volume?

I would keep it an vanilla level or make it quiter by 75%.

I used Sound Exchange to batch convert all BFV 295 voice line within like minutes. In the V1, I added +9 Db due to how low the vanilla sound is so in V2, I only add +6Db.

Update V2: Adjusted the volume and replace some repetitive voice line.

Alright, will test V2.

But why did you need the conversion?

Frosty exports wav files already.

Or you’re using another tool to export?

Mainly for volume, I tested the original wav files and it is so quiet that you can barely hear them when shits are happening.

Tested V2. Sounds good. The quality doesn’t feel distorted anymore.

However to my liking it’s still too loud – i.e. I can’t hear rally point beeping when the announcer is speaking.

Would prefer the announcer to just speak quietly in the background, maybe vanilla sound from BFV.

OK, I’ve added the vanilla sound volume as a complement. You’ll find it inside the “vanilla” folder.

it’s an ok mod but not particularly useful as it’s not in English.

I tried in the past to port the ‘Mother announcer’ from BF1, which is the English Female accent announcer. Had to resort to train some AI model to make up the missing lines, but it ended up being too much effort and gave up on it half way through.

Vanilla levels are just perfect for me, thanks!

Enjoying the “objective Anton” vibe.

I made it bcos I want German announcer speak German so yeah. Also You are correct it requires a lot of effort to extract all the appropriate voice line since it took me around 18 hours (with occasional break).

I recently discovered that the friendly bomb defuse announcer line is still using the default Enlisted announcer instead of the BFV German voice. I’ll be fixing this soon by replacing it with the appropriate line (or the closest possible match).

At least you are not leaving out sounds that makes thing silent

I have used a sound mod before that changes the voice lines to CoDWaW to announcers but it just make some sounds disappear
