I noticed that the voice packs included in Baldur’s Gate Enhanced edition (BG1EE) wasn’t included in Baldur’s Gate II Enhanced edition (BG2EE) for some reason.

Here is how to fix it:

Alternative A – Renamed files

  • Download this zip file with the voice files already renamed.
  • Extract it into your install directory BG2EE\lang\en_US\sounds
  • Start the game!

    • Alternative B – Manually rename and copy files

  • Make a temporary folder anywhere. For example on your desktop named “work”
  • Go into your install directory BG1EE\lang\en_US\sounds
  • Copy the files beginning with the following names to your work folder:
    • Female4Y.wav
    • Female5Y.wav
    • Female6Y.wav
    • Male4Y.wav
    • Male5Y.wav
    • Male6Y.wav
  • Rename the files as follows; (if you copy them directly you will get conflicts)
    Naming syntax explanation
    • Here you will notices files named with the syntax FemaleXY.wav and MaleXY.wav
    • The filenames can’t exceed 8 characters. 12345678.wav is OK. 123456789.wav is NOT.
    • The AnyX is just a name identifier and can be anything.
    • The Y represents the type of situation the sound will be played. The situations for Y are listed alphabetically a to m.
    Explanatory Image:
  • Rename the red characters Female4 to BGEFem1Y.wav (keep the blue character)
  • Rename the red characters Female5 to BGEFem2Y.wav (keep the blue character)
  • Rename the red characters Female6 to BGEFem3Y.wav (keep the blue character)
  • Rename the red characters Male4 to BGEMal1Y.wav (keep the blue character)
  • Rename the red characters Male5 to BGEMal2Y.wav (keep the blue character)
  • Rename the red characters Male6 to BGEMal3Y.wav (keep the blue character)
  • Copy all the files from your work folder to your install directory BG2EE\lang\en_US\sounds
  • Now when you start the game you should have the new voice sets in the voice list!
