Death screams

[Micmu]

You're probably talking about the famous camel sound. A lot of (monster) sounds used in games and movies are actually unedited animal sounds.

 

[Hory]

I don't know, it sounds pretty exaggerated, especially when it's used for human screams. I can't imagine an animal doing that one either.

Which monsters use it?

holy shit. u cannot b sirius

Second warning.



Seriously though, having no sounds might be unbearably surreal. I'm pretty certain of it, actually. Heck, even an ancient 16 color RPG for the C64 had sound.
Can't you just buy a CD with 10,000 sounds you are allowed to use in your game?


Yes, I only read the first page. Report me, suckers.

http://www.doom2.net/~doomdepot/doommisc.html, download the bottommost .zip, sound file is DSPODTH1.WAV. I think it was of one of the zombie dudes.

And yeah, this can't be used in AoD, so this is off-topic... sry.

Also, I think I've heard the door opening sound from Daggerfall in other games.

And my...

WTF?!?!?!? Patrick Stewart?!?!

 

[Au naturel]

So, any changes?

 

[Morbus]

More importantly, can sounds be modded in after the game is released?

 

[Serious_Business]

after the game is released

lol

We wish to inquire as to whether We could add Our fav music files into Music folder, so that We could hear Our royal trumpet, orchestras and whateverthingagumy in-game.

Seriously, I would love to hear The Ride of Valkiries while battling my heart out with those scumbags, douchebags and whateverbags. Or while exploring the dungeon as well. That will console me to the lacking of sound.

Pretty sure the lack of SFX was a joke. But placing the in-game music as .mp3s one can replace is never a bad idea.

 

[crakkie]

I just wanna suggest "WHAT AN ARTIST THE WORLD IS LOSING!!!". Back to my lurk.

Slightly offtopic but...

I'm not too knowledgeable on Roman-style or faux-Roman themes besides those from movies with stories that happen in Ancient Rome(*cough* Gladiator *cough*). I think some orchestrated music, although not exactly like the type that was common in that age, as long as it doesn't follow certain trends, wouldn't be bad either. This is a bit early too, but any recommendations on "Roman Age" soundtracks with a desolate tone?

About sound effects, once I saw a TV program on how they are improvised and done. Things like lettuce, knives, putting a shoe sole on a moving plastic fan among other things. It would be a nice extra to have "Making of" videos of this stuff as a plus with both boxed and downloaded versions. If it comes in a password-protected zip or .pgp then this extras would be "unpiratable" as well(specially .pgp because breaking cryptography is not worth the effort). Uplink had something like that, a passworded .zip that only registered users from its game can access.

I'd make it ogg though...

Orchestrated music? No way. Age of Decadence is much better off with environmental music, I think. Non continuous music... C:

There are things like, you know, emails and shit where you can share information. Including passwords... :\ That wouldn't cut it.
