    I'm trying to use IWD2 soundsets in BG2 and after some unsuccessful shots at converting them myself I found the converter here at SP.
    The problem is that the thing doesn't work. The files are copied in the appropriate directory, but when I try assigning a soundset to a party member, s/he becomes mute.

    So I ask you all good souls: are there, somewhere in the wide wide web, the converted IWD2 soundsets for BG? Or maybe a converter that actually works? Or something that will help me get the job done?

    The converter worked fine for me, although I haven't used it for a while (I keep the converted soundsets ready for action :) ). Possible solutions:
    -the package had separate programs for IWD & IWD2, did you use the right one?
    -IWD 1&2 keeps the soundsets in folders (named Female_Barbarian_1 etc. ). BG2, however, should have the sounds as separate files in the sounds directory.
    -are those individual sounds in the soundsets named correctly? For example Female Barbarian soundset from IWD2 for BG2 should contain sounds named F_Barba, F_Barbb and so on.

    Now it works. Weird, I didn't touch a thing. Oh well. Thanks for your quick answer, though!
