Platform: PC, Steam, Digital
Location: Bangkok (The Warlord)
Description: The lower-ranked soldiers added in this Elusive Target all use the voice variation CIVMALE01. This results in them not having proper guard lines, most notably resulting in the sentries outside the suite failing to properly inform Agent 47 if he is allowed in the suite or not. Note that the higher-ranked red beret soldiers use proper bodyguard voices and are not affected by this bug. This happens because SOLDIER01-03 are not set to load in the level’s sound definitions, but are set to be used by the soldiers, causing them to default to CIVMALE01. Changing the lower-ranked soldiers to use BDYGRD01-04 like the red beret soldiers or loading SOLDIER01-04 in the sound definitions should make them speak as expected.
Steps to reproduce:
- Start in 47’s suite and climb the nearby stairs to the suite. (not required, just faster)
- While dressed in 47’s suit, approach the guards outside the suite.
- One guard will silently move his mouth, followed by the second agreeing with what he ‘said’.
- Entering the suite at this point will be considered trespassing. This is intended behavior, but is not adequately communicated to the player due to this bug.
- Under normal circumstances one sentried guard will tell 47 to leave (sentry_denydsg), and the other will respond to the first (trspss_rsp). CIVMALE01 only possesses the ‘trspss_rsp’ line (usually unused for civilians) resulting in the first soldier’s line being silent.
Frequency: Every time.
