In Response To: 3 New Swahili Clips... (WraithX)

: Hey Everyone,

: I just discovered 3 new pieces of dialogue in swahili. I was walking through
: the tunnel at the end of Outskirts because I wanted to see if I could find
: anything that might be missed when going through fast. And find something
: I did! Turns out there are 3 places in that tunnel where there are overhead
: speakers emitting dialogue in swahili. I stood at each one for quite a long
: time and only ever heard these 3 snippets. I'm hoping rehema is still reading
: the forums, cuz it'd be great to get a translation of these. Unfortunately,
: my only online hosting option is with rapid-share, where after you click the
: free link, you have to wait ~50 seconds before you can download the file, but
: its free and its all I have access to. So, here are the 3 wav files:
: http://rapidshare.de/files/761835/swahili_tunnel1.wav.html
: http://rapidshare.de/files/761837/swahili_tunnel2.wav.html
: http://rapidshare.de/files/761839/swahili_tunnel3.wav.html

: The first overhead speaker is at the bottom of the "hill" just
: before the
: hole in the tunnel where the scarab shoots. Its on the top right hand side
: of the door thats down there. The second one is after that just before the
: part where the road dead-ends and you have to go around to the right. Again,
: its on the top right hand side of that door in the wall. The third one I
: found is in that last large room where you have to battle the covenant. Its
: on the ceiling up above and to the right of where that covenant ground
: transport is sitting blocking most of the highway.

: I'd love to add these clips to the dialogue databank, but I don't know if
: wav files are accepted or if only mp3's are allowed? Anyone know? Oh well.
: I hope some good comes from translating these files.

Originally, I said we'd accept .wav files - but I see no really good reason to STORE files in .wav format; it's way bigger than it has to be, for this purpose.

I've converted these to mp3, and sent rehema an email; here's hoping we can get some translations! (I'm not going to add these to the db until we have translations; that's been the pattern up to now.)
