No Alphabets 7.0! :toot: :toot:
Before I dive into the patch notes, a polite reminder that Realms Restored 3.0 is out. With that comes RR No Alphabets patch that massively improves the visuals of No Alphabets NPCs. Ty @Silver & @loregamer!
General
- Lunkbug (G) is now a female deep gnome and says "I'm your wife, it's my job". Thank you @Lancaster for the voice!
- No more "They" (T) in combat text. "They" rolled will now say "[Subject] rolled".
- Nocturne (T) talks about his self-improvement instead of sex change:
- That's not who I am now → I'm a better man now
- They were attacking who you were → They were attacking your faith
- I wasn't happy with who I was → I wasn't happy with how I was
- Z'rell will no longer do telepathic kiss-touch nonsense on you when the ogre is dead.
- Aelen (non-prisoner version) is no longer dirty.
- Aelen's eyes now glow correctly during magical boy transformation, etc.
Bugs and Oversights
- Soul Cage Animation Bug where the hand grab his legs: This is a save game issue where the soul cage expects a female strong body. Starting a new game or loading a new game before entering Act 2 (or perhaps the shadowfell) should fix the issue.
- Aelen's soul cage portrait now shows his correct male self.
- 12 voiced lines and 4 unvoiced player lines altered for correct pronouns. Thanks for your bug reports!
- Found fix to Aylin's girly screaming issue when you let Balthazar take him (See Voice Overhauls section).
No Alphabets - NocturneDe***s
- This patch lets you reverse the contents of Nocturne's diary to pre version 3.0. This is the one where he decides to rightly accept himself as the man he was born as.
Voice Overhauls
It's been 2+ years since NA came out. It's about time I upgraded my voice AI tools. With that comes massive upgrades to legacy voice swaps.
- 193 Sir Aelen voice lines upgraded
- Emotionless voice issues fixed
- Hoarse shouts/screams now sounds manly
- Far more anger/annoyance when speaking about
Lorroakan/Ketheric
- Sir Aelen no longer screams like a little girl.
- Sir Aelen's SFX redone to remove brokenness and tinniness.
- Lucretious' voice has been redone but with the same voice.
- Lucretious is now very high quality and no longer sounds tinny.
- Nocturne now has a completely new deep voice. His faggy voice should sound posh rather than just plain ***y.
- Sebastian has been completely redone with the same voice. The poor conversion of crying/breathy/whininess has been fixed.
- Some of the earliest changed NPCs with crappy voices have been replaced to remove tininess:
- Hunkers Boolean
- Kali Hammerhand
- Fuschia Vineshoot
- Ploughmann Zakk
- Hunkers Boolean
Check out the video below (Don't forget to check the tabs too for more before & after audio samples):
Aelen Voice Comparison – "No more" (Nightsong Freed)
| No Alphabets 6.x (old) | No Alphabets 7.0 (new – upgraded) |
|---|---|
| Weak ass "No More"Old version | Upgrade New version |
Videos recorded with the Realms Restored No Alphabets patch active.
Examples include:
- Nightsong Freed scene (old weak delivery vs new emotional version)
- Multiple Aelen emotional / battle / threat samples showing much improved tone, breathing, and masculinity
- Lucretious: tinny → clean & high quality
- Nocturne: gay & tinny → deep & posh
- Sebastienne: tinny & broken crying → much cleaner emotional delivery
No Alphabets Version 6.2.0
We've finally released Realms Restored — the spiritual successor of BBA and SO MUCH MORE!
This patch makes sure NA is fully compatible and also includes a few fixes and oversights.
TL;DR: Realms Restored restores white NPCs, pale elves, gender specific hairs, removes excessive midgetry, etc etc. GO GET IT!

- Lots of missed Aylen lines and typos, reported by @Tipfy (tyvm!)

Dialog Table
