For any neet anons maybe more autistic than me that have time to kill and don't mind artistically grinding away, I will spoonfeed step by step the instructions for how you or anyone can make a mod to get David Hayter as Venom in MGSV.
You shouldn't need any tech savy. Just time, following instructions like a monkey and an ear for selecting good sounding voice results.
First the AI to use.
Use this site
https://beta.elevenlabs.io/
Create accounts with temp emails with this

You can use any free VPN browser add-on/extension/etc that you want the site isn't picky.
When you hit character limit
>clear cookies
>reset IP
>make new account with new email
I aint doing your homework anon.
Keifer was a good big boss
i would if it was a good game, but this is MGSV
Next, the voice samples.
You will need to supply the AI with Hayters voice. You can use these
Every Snake line in MGS2, clean, clear isolated voice lines.
Every Snake line in MGS3 also isolated to just his voice clean and clear.
Download the videos as mp3s using this site
https://www.you2mp3.org/
The mp3 will be too large for the AI site to use so use this
https://www.audacityteam.org/
>Open the file with the program
>use ctrl+x to split it up
Divide it into many 10MB files
The AI site will limit you to 50 files so no need to split it up more.
I don't suppose anyone managed to restore cut Kiefer lines that were datamined long ago. But I suppose a voice file swap would be easier.
Next the transcript.
You can find Venom's lines here

On the excel links, make sure Text tab on the bottom left is selected.
Column F is Character Name (EN)
Look for Snake in that column to see his lines in Column G.
Copy paste the lines into the AI site.
Adjust the settings to make it sound good.
>Top Slider
Low is more emotive, expressive with more variation in intonation and inflection
>Bottom Slider
High is more accurate to the voice
Generate audio adjusting settings until the clip sounds good and download it.
Remember to clearly name your files.
Final step.
This will be the part that may require tech knowledge.
Now you have mp3 files of all of Venom's dialogue said by Hayter.
If you don't know anything about modding:
Just upload your audio files to share with people that can mod. You've finished the long grunt work.
For modding see these sites and follow the steps there for installation:
https://www.nexusmods.com/metalgearsolidvtpp/mods/826
https://metalgearmodding.fandom.com/wiki/How_to_add_custom_sounds_to_MGSV_The_Phantom_Pain
And then it is done. A mod that swaps David Hayter in for Venom in MGSV.
why are you trying to get someone else to do this
And there you have it.
Google says Venom had roughly 400 lines of dialogue in MGSV. If you are an autistic neet with time to kill, copy pasting and messing with settings and you may be able to finish within a week. Less if your friends help (friends won't help).
Why wouldn’t you just do it anon? You’ve clearly put enough thought into it
Give an anon a fish vs Teach an anon to fish.
Plus if multiple people work to take different parts it will go much faster.
Plus showing how anyone can do it and the steps how could lead to more other works.
Plus each person has a different ear for what sounds good and accurate. Selecting which result the AI gives for the Hayter delivery will be contingent on the individual's preferences.
There are many reasons to get multiple anons eyes on this.
Yeah, true enough. I’d post this on the mgs mod board too, people on this board tend to be useless morons generally. But good luck, I just stopped being a neet so I’m super swamped, but I may look into this when I have some free time, gonna screenshot this all. Cheers, anon.
>on the mgs mod board too
I'm not part of any modding boards but feel free to repost this.
I kinda like Venom having a different voice actor to show that he's not the real Big Boss. It would be better if you only swapped the real BB's lines with Hayter's voice, it would take much less work too.
Sure. You can go in the direction of swapping the lines for just Big Boss, just Venom or both.
Another reason I am sharing the steps. Some may want to make the mod one of those ways and another anon make the mod the other. And if multiple people give multiple mods then all the better.
Have you actually played MGS V though...
because Venom Snake isn't Big Boss, so it makes sense they would have different voices
that theory instantly falls apart since bb isn't voiced by hayter in 4
Neither is Solid Snake. Voices all all over the place in the series.
He's not supposed to have the same voice. Different person entirely. This is leaving aside that Big Boss's voice changes majorly over time and even he shouldn't have Hayter's voice. It should be something approaching Richard Doyle's representation. Hayter's voice doesn't need to be involved in this entry.
Correct
It wasn't a choice made for that reason because the VA is the same in the JP version. The reason is because Kojima wants to rub shoulders with hollywood israelites. Also explain GZ.
The Japanese VA's dad voiced Big Boss in 4. VA culture in Japan also seems to be different and more involved tha occasional western fanboy BS. GZ in its time was easily explained given the prior sentiment. I also wouldn't imagine they'd switch VAs between the teaser and full game anyway, so that's a moot point.
That falls apart when you consider that in the JP version of MGSV Akio Ōtsuka reprised his role. The change in the western release is just because Kojimbo was finally able to afford movie stars
Still. for me it does make more sense for Venom to have a different guy
Hes gonna say you are big boss in MGSV GZ
homie there’s already a mod that replaces Venom’s grunts with PW Snake’s noises, it’s kino and ludo at the same time.
>snores when you go into stealth mode
Just grunts or lines too?
You know Big Boss is eventually supposed to sound like Richard Doyle, right? it makes narrative sense for him to eventually stop sounding like Hayter and start sounding like Doyle
>pls make a mod for me
Who fricking cares who voices Snake when he has maybe 3 lines the whole game?
ok so how do you replace his lines in the actual game mr ideas guy?
There's already the sound replacement mod that replaces voices, music and voices.
Hayter doesn't deserve Quiet.
She's for BKC only.
sutherland moged hayter.
any future mgs needs sutherland as the english VA
