The SOUND of ACTION BOOGALOO - use this thread, nerds

[Vino]

I used bells because before we had some percussive sounds but they were in the same frequency range as the gunfire and explosions and so they couldn't be heard. Now I use the bells and they cut through the gunfire, so I'd like that any replacements also cut through the gunfire in the same way. It's pretty important for the design that players attention is brought to the bar filling up, so those sounds need to come through loud and clear. If someone sends me sounds but I can't hear them as much as I can hear the bells now, I probably won't merge them into the game. That said I think the current sounds could use a lot of improvement.

Chk-CHK! Is this the right direction?
BTW, I don't have enough space on dropbox for the DAB stuff.

I don't know if the room of the map that has this effect, but I feel like the chk chk has a little too much stereo spread? The map looks sick though.

Also, I haven't checked out the new version so I haven't heard the bells but I may tackle it if I get some inspiration to.

Edit: Nvm, the chk chk sounds pretty sweet as it is. Good job.

Go in your dropbox and see if you can get more space, there's a link on the top right. Give me your referral link and I'll put it in the thread. How short are you?

Also what map is that?

Never mind. I did a couple of those things and that was enough.
Edit: No viewmodel QCs?

The GMod map can be dropped into the maps folder if you want to see what it looks like, although there are only two spawns. The map uses custom particles I set up here: http://sdrv.ms/17YPCeC
Although wall jumping means a lot of nodraw textures will be seen. It does have a nifty sunny-to-rainy weather cycle every five minutes though.

Oh no it's all good, I thought it might be a DA map that I hadn't seen yet.

Is there any sounds that need (re)doing ? I have a friend who is a professional sound engineer, he would like to help, i already asked him.

[Vino]

Hell yes, a whole lot of them. Have your friend get in touch with me, my contact info is on the main page of the website
