Emma Frost Booster v2.0:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1U3H0MkDCq5KdCklcrMp61xVDPNFVzW4Y/view?usp=sharing**This is a booster I made for Whiteking's Emma Frost mod. It contains the following:
*Finally gives Whiteking's Emma Frost mod a voice file, which contains Emma's XML1 voices and grunts sounds plus her XML2 npc voices and grunts sounds and new lines created from editing clips out of her NPC lines in both XML games, meaning she has a substantially expanded voiceset versus XML1:
-Since her "I See You" and "Victory" lines were already at the maxmimum limit, I removed 1 XML1 I See You line that I found cringy ("Prepare to lose") to accomodate 1 of her XML2 I See You lines. (Her 2nd XML2 I See You line is just a different line reading of a XML1 I See You line and I liked the XML1 version better so I kept that one. And her 3rd I See You line I felt was a bad line and a bad line reading "This is gonna hurt you a lot." plus the rest of the XML1 ones were better so I left that one out as well.)
-For her Victory lines, I swapped one over to Taunt Knockdown as I felt it worked better there ("Try harder next time dear.") and removed 2 that I felt the line readings were bad ("Mmm, so sorry" and "You really weren't that tough.") so I could replace them with much better XML2 Victory lines.
-She also has 2 new Sight lines, 3 new Taunt Knockdown lines, and 1 new Epitaph lines from her XML2 voiceset.
-She also has the following that I edited from her XML1 and XMl2 NPC lines: 4 more Respaffirms, 3 more Bored lines, 1 more No Work line, and 1 more Sight lines.
-She also has an Xtreme callout for her 2nd Xtreme, Hail to the Queen.
*Her grunts are a combination of all her XML1 grunts and all her XML2 grunts.
*Her power sounds were completely redone and are a combination of her XML1 power sounds (power 1, power 3, 1st Xtreme Psychic Bedlam), 1 of the power sounds from Whiteking's mod (2nd Xtreme Hail to the Queen), and some of her Marvel Heroes power sounds (everything else).
*Also included is the X-Men Legends II Ultimate Patch version of her powerstyle, which switches her diamond form skin over to 9010.
-I also made changes to this to accomodate her changed power sounds and so that every power sound could have its own unique sound.
-I also fixed her broken Psionic Overload power. This was supposed to be a "hold down the button" power but the coding for this was broken and so the power continues whether you hold the button or not. Not holding it means the power would end on its own eventually in an awkward way and doesn't end properly. The "power sound" would play for a while then cut off abruptly and the "power end" sound would also never play. I have fixed all of this so that it is a proper working hold power, that when you let go of the button, Emma's power end animation plays correctly, the "power sound" ends properly, and the "power end" sound plays properly. (Thanks to ak2ny for advice on how to make the power end more quickly once I'd gotten the end part to actually work.)
-Originally, Whiteking coded her Astral Beam power to play a taunt when she defeats an enemy. My guess is Whiteking did this due to custom voicepacks not being a thing back in the earlier days of XML2 modding. As my voicepack means the Victory voice lines play when she defeats an enemy, I have removed this redundant aspect.
*I also corrected spelling and grammar mistakes in her power descriptions, as well as rewrote some descriptions to be more clear. I also renamed her Astral Beam power to Astral Projection, along with rewriting the description to fit better with what it felt like Whiteking was going for, which was a power from the cartoon Wolverine and the X-Men, where she uses a power like this to astral project.
*A new character select portrait, which I made using the same high quality unletterboxed source as her XML1 loading screen
*Also included are all-new packs for her skins. These now allow for custom conversation huds and custom 3d hud heads for each skin (for use with BaconWizard17's skins).
*The new herostat is just a personal peferrence of mine: I reordered the skins so that skin 01 is the default skin (which is also her NPC skin) and that the skins are in numerical order in the herostat.
**Bonus:
*Bonus 1 - 2 new loading screens I made from high quality unletterboxed sources: her XML1 loading screen and an unused uncensored version of her XML1 loading screen.
-These are a bonus because they are pretty similar and you might not want to use both of them. I've included pictures of them, so pick which you like and rename it to 9001. If you want to use the other one too, then rename it to 9002.
-Add the following line to your review_paths (if it isn't there already) and add another for the second one if you're using it too:
item {
name = Emma Frost ;
type = load ;
value = textures/loading/9001 ;
}
*Bonus 2 - A version of her XML1/XML2 conversation hud I made using a version of the image from the XML1 Prototype that's higher quality than the version used in the XML1 retail version. (It's at a resolution of 128x128 vs the version used in XML1 retail and XML2 where it's 64x64)
-This is in the bonus folder in case you're using BaconWizard17's skins and huds and such, so this is here if you want to use it and so that you can decide which number you want to assign this to.
*Note about x_voice: this seems to be compatible with the 2020 update version of x_voice (which provides Emma's announcer callout and menu breaks) but if this mod doesn't work, try without the x_voice update and let me know.
