Tremulous Sound Licenses

[bc1981]

The bsuit sound is coming from some kind of speaker because the human is in a mechanical suit, no?

good point, maybe some EQ and/or tight reverb could help.
second attempt: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16674891/tremulous/taunt.bsuit2.wav

meh, i don't know, something like that..

[KillerWhale]

Yeah, I like both of those "come on" sounds a lot more that any of them that I've heard so far.

I mean, with the new battlesuit one you just made.

[Demolution]

Much better. 

[CATAHA]

New BS sound is good, but a bit... dirty. Tech level wich allow making BS means that they can make good speakers. If you need more 'realistic' sound... it should be a bit louder and 'mechanized', but not like he sitting in closed barrel and trying to scream.

[Pazuzu]

I'd recommend this FX chain:
-Deeper
-Some EQ to simulate a speaker, but not too much
-Maybe just a bit of reverb
-The big one: A compressor effect. Running the sound through a loudspeaker is bound to involve some sort of compression.
So sort of like this: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16081358/bsuit-taunt.wav

That sounds demonic more than anything :/.

i like the human taunt alteration although i think someone should improve the mara
it sounds too.... bubbly?
weird description i know but yeah.
give the mara more of a hiss in its voice and a bit of a screech too,
because of its size it should sound different so maybe halfway inbetween a screech and a hiss for the mara.

I like it. I matches the jumping sounds quite well (yeah, the ones that will probably have to be redone anyway  ).

Tech level which allow making BS means that they can make good speakers.

Then why are we even thinking about another taunt sound for bsuits? Assuming having good speakers coupled with realtime sound correction built in the battlesuit, humans should sound the same with or without bsuits

I can haz nightmare?

well, not a good taunt. I think the old one is good, but it may need a BIT of modifacation.
and the maras do sound a bit too bubbly. i agree. Hearbeat.wav is the main theme, not an actual heartbeat. maybe a patch for a heartbeat sound when a human has lower than 26hp?
i say the heartbeat.wav should be brandons newest version.

[DraZiLoX]

I say, use Pazuzu's main menu music. It has piano and everything.

Mostly because we're talking about a video game here. Why try to be realistic when you can be unrealistic.  

Edit: fail phone posting

I think the turret spin-up sound is way too loud in the GPP, it really makes you wonder what the f- is making that sound.. until you turn around and realise that it's just that tiny little turret. If the volume was set a little lower, I think it'd be fine.

[RoHAK]

I thought they fixed that when it was flooding every audio channel with the spinup (because it was stereo)

[bc1981]

now third attempt, i tried to make it sound a little more convincing...
more like it's coming from inside of a metal box.

is it better now?

its good, but i needs to sound more mechanical

[David]

I like it how it is.  Battle suits aren't robots...

[StevenM]

thats really good. i think if it was a little longer in duration, it actually be pretty close to perfect imo.

maybe try improving the quality as well. the sound just seems a little too "raw".

- http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16674891/tremulous/bsuit.taunt4.wav

that's about as mechanical sounding as i can get it..maybe someone else can have a crack at this?
so to sum it up, there's one human, and 4 bsuit taunt sounds to choose from (of which bsuit.taunt3 is my personal favorite):

- http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16674891/tremulous/human.taunt.wav
- http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16674891/tremulous/bsuit.taunt.wav

of course, i these are all CC-BY-SA 3.0 because i love tremulous :-)

i'll see what i can do, but it may sound low quality due to it being a monaural sound.

[David]

I think I prefer the first bsuit one.

[c4]

Great.  Make it a tad lower.

[StevenM]

definitely bsuit 1 or 3. as for the regular human taunt, i still think it sounds a bit like a 14 year old :/.

[jaypee]

bsuit 1.

how can i upload a sound to freesound? I dont know how to :S

If you're trying to upload a sound for Tremulous, you'll want to use a file host like Dropbox (which is what Freez and I have been using) and post the link here. Freesound is just a generic sound library we've been borrowing from.

[freezway]

Yeah, I highly recommend dropbox. It's an amazing piece of software.

[swamp-cecil]

how do i share a folder? No-one else can see my 2 sound files.

You don't. You share individual files.

[ziplocpeople]

I was skeptical about getting a good replacement for it too, but I think freezway is on the right track with recordings of his cat purring.

My dog used to make sounds just like a granger before she died 

[freezway]

swamp, put the files in the public folder then right click and select get public URL
