me and my sister zuko actually agree to this, we were talking about this ingame. I howled as my male werewolf Sai. His personality is evil and cruel, killing family members offspring. And sometimes even his own. He's not settling down and enjoys his freedom. However when i howled i was like -_- it doesnt suit his character, its actually more of the feminine side. I imagined Sai's howl and this isnt it.
However im not sure how this will be implemented into the game. Maybe if he uses Audicity then that might actually work with the whole slider thing. As it will change the tone of the sounds. But i totally agree with you guys i would love this idea in. However i prefer the pitches and volume better then the other too because these would be easier to add in compared to the other too.
for the position for the heads you can kind of already do that. If you have you head facing the ground and hit Howl (only tested with wolf) your head goes towards the middle and thats it. However if you look to the sky your head goes towards your back. So for the head position its kindof still in your control. Dont forget these are easier said then done. It could take kov ages to figure out how to implement these if he did want this added in. Not only that but the character creation screen would have to be edited and recoded to add more bars in. It would be alot of work.
To be honest it would have been better to give people 3 types of howls and 3 types of roars. 1 for different genders Male (Rough heavy howl) Female (Feminine Howl) and then offspring.
He can use the same animations that he already has but use the audicity to change the pitch of the sounds. And instead of changing the bars in the character creation screen to save him from doing too much coding. He could simply add them in the actions box. FHowl,MHowl,PupHowl. Same for the felines.
FRoar,MRoar,CubRoar. This is just my oppinion.
