  • Author created a mod for Deus Ex 1 to fix broken lipsyncing and blinking.
  • Lipsyncing in Deus Ex was originally elaborate but pared back for performance.
  • Mod involved adjusting Unrealscript to smooth out viseme transitions and blinking.
  • Fixed a frame rate check that was incorrectly flipping tweentime values.
  • Increased tweentime from 0.1 to 0.35 for smoother blends between phonemes.
  • Removed the bIsSpeaking check to allow smooth mouth closing after speech.
  • Slowed down blinking to make it visible.
  • Identified inconsistent phoneme updates as an unresolved issue.
  • Shared the modified LipSynch function code in the post.
