Havasu Blues - A Fallout New Vegas Mod
Project Overview
Havasu Blues
Our project is an expansion mod for Fallout New Vegas with two acts. It adds about 6-8 hours of content in a new map with a large variety of quests, locations, and characters.
The mod takes place in western Arizona around the area of Lake Havasu City, with the first act being a fairly guided survival experience in an irradiated valley. The second act is more open, revolving around the town of Havasu itself and the surrounding areas.
Currently, the mod is feature complete apart from half of the characters' voice acting and final polish.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Contact / Audio SpecificsYou may audition for multiple roles in the project if you wish. You may potentially be cast for multiple roles if you do so.
To any auditioning voice actors, it is preferable if you have a Discord account, as that will be the main form of communication and sending voice lines (My Discord is Akarion#1258, anyone can contact me at any time), but alternate methods will be discussed if you do not have Discord.
Certain characters in the mod are ghouls and nightkin, which in the Fallout universe are severely irradiated and mutated humans. Ghoul voices are usually very gravelly and raspy, while nightkin have deep voices. I will include a couple of examples below;
The deadline for voice lines will be 2 weeks after you are cast. As for the file format, all voice lines must be mono 16-bit .wav files in 44100Hz.
