First I would like to commend you all on a very informative forum. It is great to see people from all over the world sharing a common interest.
I am looking to modify the standard v28 so that it has a British Female voice instead of the US female voice. I currently have the v26 with the British female voice and would like to upgrade. This is for my e46 M3 although it seems like it is the same for all Mk IV systems.
From my searching I have found 3 ways describing how to do this and just want to make sure I do it the right way. Like I said I just want the voice changed not the language (so units remain in feet etc.). I realize the below are for older versions but I assume the idea is the same for v28.
I read the thread about Navtweak but it appeared that there is an easier way to accomplish what I am requesting.
#1
"I would say that you can just rename the files to your liking.
for example in the MKIV use the following path \V_2\Voices\0506
Change the usa_f.csf to what you want. for example gb_f.csf to usa_f.csf and vice versa.
That would be easier than modifying the voice.lst file and the voice.lst file checksum"
#2
"So navigate to the
V_2/Voices/0502
rename usa_f.csf to usa_f.bak
rename gb_f.csf to usa_f.csf
V_2/language/0103
rename usa4f.tsf to usa4f.bak
rename gb4f.tsf to usa4f.tsf"
AND
V_2/language/0105
rename usa4f.tsf to usa4f.bak
rename gb4f.tsf to usa4f.tsf
#3
So navigate to the
V2/Voices/0502
rename usa_f.csf to usa_f.bak
rename gb_f.csf to usa_f.csf
V2/language/BMWOCN
rename usa4f.tsf to usa4f.bak
rename gb4f.tsf to usa4f.tsf
Again these all seem to point to changing the files the same way but I am wondering if there is a need to change the language files if all I want is the voice changed. Any assistance would be appreciated. If anyone has done this and could send it that would be even better.
Thanks in advance!
