My GF and I play all the time but she absolutely hates the voice of her female UD lock!

Is there a way to switch voices with another race/sex? Like make her talk like a NE female or something? I realize that this will only be on her computer and other people in the game won't hear anything different.

Or, does anyone know if I could replace the audio files manually?

Any help would be appreciated.:grin:

This would involve altering Blizzards files, and as those who have been "reskinning" WoW models have learned as of 1.11, it's no longer possible.

In actuality, what the skinners were doing was placing files in unique positions in the data folder corresponding to the same file's position within the MPQ archives. Since the Data folder used to be read by the game BEFORE files in the MPQ archives, it was possible to override default files, like textures.

People had a ton of fun with that naturally, and eventually, they took it too far, I'm told. Now this functionality of the data folder has been locked out entirely.

So I don't really see how you could (easily) alter the audio files anymore.
