New automated phoneme extractor for Faceposer -- works on Vista/7 - Garry's Mod

courtesy of the hlcoders mailing list [url]http://steamreview.org/external/vdc/phonemeextractor_sapi5.4.zip[/url] This updated extractor provides better results than the SDK's default one. It works on Windows 7, and should work on Vista too. It will *not* work on XP. To install, extract the contents of the zip file to [SDK version]\bin\phonemeextractors\. KEEP A BACKUP HANDY, as every time you run the SDK Launcher, or in the case of L4D1/2 receive an update, the custom DLL will be replaced with Valve's original and you'll have to put it back in place manually. The easiest way to run Faceposer without using Valve's launcher is with the Source SDK Windows Gadget: [url]http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Source_SDK_Windows_gadget[/url] [B]This will make Faceposer crash if your sentence text contains special characters (e.g. commas and apostrophes) when trying to extract[/B]

This is fantastic

Holy shit, awesome.

note that it doesn't give phonemes for me, but it places words automatically and quite accurately, which is already a good gain of time this is how it behaves here [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3797350/img/automatedphonemevista.png[/img] the words are placed very accurately (even though the detection completely fails on longer sentences, so I'd recommend splitting up your WAVs), and all you've gotta do is select the first phoneme, right click, and "delete all phonemes after this one" and possibly delete the duplicate words it sometimes create (like the extra "ago" at the end)

wow brilliant find max.

Another small warning: on one of my computers, this causes Faceposer to crash on long lines and whenever you try to resize a word or a phoneme If you have a lot of lines to sync, i'd just recommend to extract all the words from all the lines then going through all of them with the regular DLL again

About time.

It does not work for me. Halp ):

Its not working for me, I'm on Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit.

maybe its for 32-bit?

[QUOTE=ToNz;23550818]maybe its for 32-bit?[/QUOTE] no, it works on both my machines

I finally got around to doing it, it says "missing phonemes, logging to desktop" and it does the same thing it does with Max of S2D's faceposer.

I love you [editline]12:16AM[/editline] Fuck doesn't work on Vista x64. Put it in SDK/bin/phonemeextractors/ and SDK/Source2007/bin/phonemeextractors :( [editline]12:28AM[/editline] All my hopes and dreams are now dead

Finally... I've been waiting for this.

I got to the point of word recognition but not phoneme like Max. Kinda pointless :| Well not entirely pointless but I think I'll wait until it can fill in the phonemes

Kinda pointless :| Well not entirely pointless but I think I'll wait until it can fill in the phonemes[/QUOTE] uh, it's not pointless at all you do realize that once the word timing is all set (which would take a LOT of time without the extractor), just right click on a word, insert phonemes, and enter your phonemes 90% of the time if you do it right you won't have to readjust the phoneme timing, which makes it so that you can lipsync a ten second voice file in approximately a minute

Every. Time.

[QUOTE=InvisibleTed;23600089]Or you can get to the point of inserting phonemes, try to resize a phoneme, and crash. Every. Time.[/QUOTE] my point is, I have 50 wavs to do what I can do is lipsync everything then come back without the DLL to do adjustments on the 2 or 3 ones that had problems as a whole it stays faster

[quote]uh, it's not pointless at all[/quote] [quote]Well not entirely pointless[/quote] And if you're doing things in a minute it will probably end up being crap

[QUOTE=thrawn2787;23603387]And if you're doing things in a minute it will probably end up being crap[/QUOTE] You know, I never really liked automatic extractors before, but that one does the only task that is really repetitive, boring and tedious: placing words I see absolutely no reason to complain here

It didn't work for me. I tried multiple sound files. Win 7 64bit.

Just a heads up: apparently, crashing when resizing phonemes/words is not induced with the DLL but is a regular Faceposer crash that's gotta be fixed

I have that, too. =\

[QUOTE=Mr-A;23707265]I have that, too. =\[/QUOTE] yeah same here D:

people who say it doesn't work say they have 64 bit. it must be cause of that.

I have two computers both under Windows 7, one is 32 bit and the other 64; it works on both of them...

I cannot get this to work. I installed in both places. Also I am running 2009 With Garrysmod settings. I also have the bug with moving the sliders to crash it. EDIT: Its time for valve to fix this... T.T EDIT: I have Vista Home Premium 32 bit. - I cried a little when typing that.

I'm getting crashes too. :(

I actually have to do this to facepose: Ignore all traces of words and go directly to sound, because I cant move them. So I am completely ignoring the word base and going to the root silibols . It works so... You can do it that way.
