FNF: Utau Cover 1.0

Friday Night Funkin' has been a massive hit among the gaming community. It is insanely stylish while also hitting the nostalgia switch with its art style. It's also incredibly moddable, with practically every asset it has being editable. The community has created some great mods and one of them is FNF: Utau Cover.

To install FNF: Utau Cover, simply drag and drop the files from the mod into the folder where you extracted the original game files.

This mod remixes most of the songs in the game to be performed by the Vocaloid program Utau. What the program does is help remix an existing track by extracting phenomes, adjust pitch, and reassemble all of it together to make the song sound like a vocaloid is singing it.

Unfortunately, results vary significantly. The track is adjusted so that the boyfriend's voice is pitched to sound like Utau, but this also affects the other singers in the game, and the results aren't great. For instance, Pico is a particular egregious example, sounding even more artificial than he does normally while also sounding washed out and raspy.

Outside of that, the songs are the exact same - they're quite literally just modified to have Utau's voice replace the boyfriend's. It's pretty lacking in content as well.

Even though FNF: Utau Cover does what it sets out to do, this is a matter of whether one should have rather than whether they could. The songs don't sound that great - simply a pitch-shifted version of the original songs.
