Re: Shenmue 2 Full English Xbox Speech mod for Sega Dreamcas

hey guys, so, my friend that is living in south korea found working 99min cd-r's and mailed me a set of shenmue 2 copies that he burned

the audio is deifnitely not full quality, but it's not horrible either. definitely playable. and seems to vary a lot?
seems like regular npc dialog often sounds better than cutscenes(whenever there's letterboxing)

here's a kinda crappy quality sample of how it sounds, filmed off my tv with my cellphone

Re: Shenmue 2 Full English Xbox Speech mod for Sega Dreamcas

Actually you are right. Disc 4 is really the same disc on the 80 and 99 min versions. I had to re-rip my discs for the 80 min version to upload the game as it was completely lost to the net. The only problem was that I had lost the 4th disc but I remembered that disc 4 on the 99 min didn't have to be put on a 99 min disc at all and would in fact fit on an 80 min disc, so I pulled the ISO from that version to add to disc 4 of the standard version of the mod so people could play it. That is why the audio on disc 4 is pretty much flawless.

Re: Shenmue 2 Full English Xbox Speech mod for Sega Dreamcas

I have to redact my statement. I had mislabled one of my 80 versions as 99 min. I decided to check again after your post and saw it was the wrong disc. My mistake.

I played around on disc 1 a bit. It seems to depend on the dialog and which NPCs. The 99 min version is far better than the 80 min version, but some NPCs are still a bit robotic, but its quite good. I can handle the 99min version, though I am still curious about my original question.

Is it just not possible to fit the audio without downsampling it? I'm guessing the original xbox files are quite large due to them having a lot of space to work with on DVD at the time?

Only for about 30 mintues. I ran around the first area talking to random people. Here is an example of the downsampled audio in the 99 minute version. Please note that not all NPCs sound like this, the free speech seems better than the cutscenes.

Sorry for the shakyness, I recorded from my phone, but you can easily hear the audio.
