But music can be stereo(2 channels) because it doesn't have 3D position(x,y,z) in the game world. It is "global".

What about the ambience and Duke Talk sounds?

Hunter_rus · 11-23-2007, 01:14 PM

You have a point.
But their position isn't (0,0,0). I think some hack in the code could move those sounds to the (0,0,0) and allow stereo. Well, we need to keep stereo sounds.

Sorry to bump, but regarding redoing Duke's voice for the sound pack, is there anyway Clint Basinger might consider redoing them in high quality? He did a standup job on that Sound Board that was released. Best Duke impression I've heard yet.

NightFright · 01-04-2008, 07:08 PM

Duke with a different voice? Have you lost your wits? *LOL*

MusicallyInspired · 01-04-2008, 10:56 PM

Yes, what I'm saying is treason and sacrilage etc etc. But since you can't get Jon St John I just thought it'd be an option for higher quality sounds. Maybe as an extra pack if wouldn't want it with the rest of the HQ sound pack.

Or I'm being stupid.

Even though I think he sounds more like Clint Eastwood then Duke it would still be cool. Essentially his voice would have worked perfectly as Dukes voice but don't sound exactly like the Jon St John Duke.

NightFright · 01-05-2008, 11:26 AM

Well, if you get this alternate actor to perform all the sounds indeed, I think it's at least worth a try. Maybe it can even make it interesting for Duke3D veterans to replay the whole game with a completely new protagonist voice.

BTW: Is there a sample of his voice somewhere? I have never heard anything done by him.

MusicallyInspired · 01-05-2008, 11:30 AM

You don't know about the Duke Nukem sound board on Duke4.net? It's all his voice.

Spiker · 01-05-2008, 12:02 PM

These sounds are fantastic! They are really nice. Maybe only somtimes they should be done with more vivid intonation

DeeperThought · 01-05-2008, 03:13 PM

I can't get that to play. Does anyone have it in a different format?

NightFright · 01-05-2008, 06:08 PM

You need Adobe Flash plugin installed in your browser.

Well, it sounds good. However the real recordings should be made with a better micro so you don't hear he's actually speaking his sentences into one. Otherwise, I guess it could really work!

Wow, that's AWSOME! I vote we use him for the HRP!

He's REALLY close.

The Commander · 01-07-2008, 09:27 PM

Some of them are good and close, But others dont sound anything like duke IMO

MusicallyInspired · 01-08-2008, 08:16 AM

Still, better than any other impression you've heard, I bet.

Heh. He'd have to agree to it first, assuming it's decided upon to ask him, before there can be any voting on using him.

xeroxt4 · 01-09-2008, 10:28 PM

where do you download the soundboard voice clips - I have an idea that will probably not work so I want to try it

toto · 04-30-2008, 06:47 PM

Music and sounds works perfectly under Linux with the last snapshots, thanks for the job guys !

Hope to get an official sounds pack soon

Hendricks266 · 05-17-2008, 12:23 PM

Wouldn't it be possible to get the original sound bank CDs and copy higher quality versions of the sounds, since they are usually royalty-free? This won't work for the voices; we'll have to ask 3DR for that.

supergoofy · 08-25-2008, 12:41 AM

When I use the sound pack I get these errors:

Error: file 'highres/sound/b3die03g.ogg' does not exist
Error: file 'highres/sound/octaatk1.ogg' does not exist
Error: file 'highres/sound/ctrlm25.ogg' does not exist
Error: file 'highres/sound/whistle.ogg' does not exist
Error: file 'highres/sound/tank3a.ogg' does not exist

Not sure why those specific files are causing problems.

I'm going to be getting to work on a new version of the soundpack soon enough.

supergoofy · 08-26-2008, 12:26 PM

In the pack the following files exist:
b3die3g.ogg
ctrlrm25.ogg
Probably they need rename?
The other 3 files are missing?

XTHX2 · 08-26-2008, 12:31 PM

You can always check the USER.CON to be sure on what their names are. I would suggest you to rename them on your own if it's just an issue of names

Hunter_rus · 08-26-2008, 02:06 PM

I suggest to not use full filenames in DEFs.
The same convention is used for the Music Pack and is recommended for this pack because it will prevent the sounds of mods from being overridden by the Sound Pack.

Code:

// full path
Sound { ID 0 file "highres/sound/kickhit.ogg" }

// recommended format (will be expanded to "highres/sound/kickhit.ogg")
Sound { ID 0 file "highres/sound/" }

Authors of mods are encouraged to define their sound/music in CON files and giving new names to files so that the filenames don't match original filenames.
