Ok now what...
Vitechy
I have been playing PDS, love it, cannot wait for PDS-NGCS, but to the point. I was getting tired of the repetitive battle chatter form all of my hours of playing, so I decided to make some for my own personal enjoyment. I have recorded the sound, converted it into .FDA and created a .lua file. The only thing is I do not know what to do next. I would appreciate if someone could tell me what to do next, where to place the files and what other files I need to change in order for the game to accept these files and use them. Any advice is welcome, and thanks in advance.

They go into englishspeech/sound/speech/allships and then in the appropriate subdirectory. The file names and subdirectories must match the event when the speech file is played. Look at the files, their names are more or less self explanatory. For example if you record "oh my god that's a funky ship!" as an alternative description for the Al Khalid, name the file vshipname_battlecruiser_2.fda and put it in the all_2 subdirectory.

PDS = Homeworld Era Combat still
NGCS /E = Space combat in earth's future, non-homeworld universe

Suggestion; Play both. They both have different aims and goals.
