This is about 2 days of trial and error. CON code included is bone stock 1.5 + edits to allow for use of the wav files, 1.3D users can easily mod their User.con to use the new files by using the 1.5 CON as a template.

Most weapons and some ambient sounds have been done at this points, the rest will fall into place when I find/mix suitable sounds.

Cool stuff. Since HRP primarily improves graphics, we should also consider the acoustic constituent.

[engineer]

I agree. I've been around the development aspect of games long enough to know the importantce audio has on the overall experience.

[Devon]

this is very intresting and also something that i would like alot.

im not sure about some of the weapon sounds though i would focus on the enviroment sounds like fire.wind,rain city sounds things like that.

great work keep it up!

The RPG was more or less inspired by Goldeneye.

You're right that sound is important to the experience of playing the game, but that is exactly why projects like these don't tend to work. Straying from the original sound design means also straying from the original games identity.

Considering that most of Duke3D's audio is based on clips from sound libraries (much like Doom) I would prefer to see something more along the lines of this: http://www.perkristi..._doom-sfx.shtml. What that guy did was essentially finding the high quality elements of the game's sound effects and remixing and remastering them, creating high quality versions of the originals. The WAD I linked makes Doom sound a hell of a lot better, though of course some sound effects can't be remade in any satisfactory way (Duke's voice for example, unless you convinced Jon St John to re-record or sourced the untouched originals somehow) the vast majority can.

The CLIPIN and CLIPOUT sounds are the HQ versions of the originals, actually.

well i think the released sound replacments a good start for this project......

...i like the fire and plane noises very much.......but for example the RPG sound should be replaced with something thats is closer to the original.


btw. shouldnt 3DR have still the tapes/cds with Jon St John voice somewhere?

Great work. I'm new here on the board but I like to contribute with this. I expanded engineer's soundpack with some sounds improved such as the glass sounds and added more sounds, also included new sounds for the Predator Trooper. 45 new WAV files, Hope you like em.

Dude, go upload it to mediafire or something. I had to ask TX about it because stuff like that.... viruses are something I can't afford to get right now.

Whats wrong with tinyURL? Anyway I uploaded it to another host.

[Yatta]

Those sounds rule.

I hope we can get this sort of stuff into the HRP. It'd go hand in hand with the high res music pack.

[engineer]

I'd be interested in formerging with/working alongside the HRP, but i'd rather wait until I have more to show for it.
