Sorry for taking so long to get back to this. Here's the next two (Semi-Automatic Weapons and Automatic Weapons).
Oh, one thing. In the current game I have going (that I converted to v29 when it released) I recently researched, Perspective, Oil Painting, and Matchlock, but none of them had audio quotes. Is there some reason those were not added to v29?

Well, something must have been put in wrong, as they aren't playing during the game. Yes, other techs are playing their audio fine. It's probably just a typo somewhere.

Found one in the Matchlock one but other than that they are fine.

Hmm, very odd. Has anyone else reached those techs in a game? Did the audio play?
Since that 12padams guy is gone never to be seen again, can we seriously remove his quotes from the game, god I can't stand him.. and that voice, drives me insane, I can't close those tech popups quick enough.. Argh stfu!! 
As an Australian I can safely say that no-one speaks like him
..the 12 in fronts of padams is because he's 12 right? At least he sounds 12 
I'll keep an eye out.. I mean an ear.

For one thing, he might come back at a later time. He seems to get bored with things after a while and needs something different.
Secondly, there are some people who have posted stating that they liked his quotes, so removing them entirely would be a bit premature.
Third, you can always just mute the voice in the Audio Options window in game until the section of prehistoric with his quotes is done. Yes, you'd miss one or two quotes that aren't his, but that shouldn't be a big deal.
And last, I live in the USA and I have heard people who do speak somewhat like that. Not often I'll admit, but it does occasionally happen.

Oh, yeah, I almost forgot about this. I did go back to an earlier save and re-researched Oil Painting and Matchlock, as I remembered that I keep the volume low on the voice and since I am so low-pitched myself, perhaps I just missed it. So I turned up the Voice volume, and researched the techs, and the audio did not play for me. Very odd with SO being certain there are no further typos.

I just got Matchlock in my present game and your voice is unmistakable, just a little too low there, but it works for me at least

That typo you found and fixed on it must have done the trick. Obviously you are using the SVN for that game. Have you gotten Perspective or Oil Painting yet?

Not yet, i usually by-pass those as i dont really use them that much.

I was just playing ans listening to the NEW quotes, and i like them very much, so what ever happened to making more??
MagnusIlluminus

Sorry, I've been having issues with my current computer, as well as significant time restraints. I'm planning on getting a new computer today, so with any luck I'll be able to do more soon. Thanks for still being interested.

What do you use for a recording device, thats free, with a junky microphone (at least mine is
)
MagnusIlluminus

I have a headset with an attached microphone. The brand is Plantronics. It's not particularly expensive, but it's decent quality. At least, I think it is. Hmm, I'm going to have to see how many hoops I have to jump through to get this working with Windows 8.

So what do you use for recording then? WinAmp other??
MagnusIlluminus

Oh, I see what you were asking. I've been using Audacity 2.0.3 for windows.

SO said this would be the Thread for it, so I'll repost it here. I will continue the List during the next week.
Also, there are a lot quotes that sound... just bad. Sometimes it's the horrible voice, sometimes the microphone is just bad. And some Filmquotes (the "Conan, what is best in life?" one) also have a horrible quality.

I'm starting back into recording these again. I'm also making a database of which techs have quotes and which don't, inspired by Faustmouse's post above. At this time, I'm going to start with column nine of the Tech Chart and work upward from there rather than finish the few left back from page six of this thread. On that note though, I've noticed that Carving and Simple Wood Working both have the same Tech Quote. Would anyone mind if I recorded the description for Simple Wood Working instead?
