CA Idol!

Post by MidKnight »

CA needs your voice! Or your skill with a sound editor. >_>

If you've played CA, you've probably noticed our fascinating unit reply sounds. Whether or not you actually like these isn't my problem (they can be disabled via the widgets menu :wink: ), but we are a bit short on unit replies. Many people dislike hearing the same unit replies over and over, and even a hilarious one can become annoying with time. Furthermore, there are many things we'd like to do with CA sounds, like maybe even music (!) and dynamic unit replies and the such.

So we need people with voices and/or facility with audio software and/or instruments to help!

Don't be shy!

Here's an idea,why not make a post about this in the ca subforum instead of opening new threads about CA this CA that all the time?

Its really pretty dumb being relegated to a subforum when the whole purpose of the post is to recruit from the community at large and get maximum exposure for contributions.

Meh, i oppose the ghettoization of spring.

On the other hand, if it were placed in some general modding forum it would end up on page 2 in a week. At least here it will always be visible to someone checking the subforum.

A poor little peewee child is born
In the ghetto...In the ghettoooo!
And the storage cries
'cause if there's one thing that it don't need
it's another plasma gun to feed
In the ghetto...In the ghettoooo!

back to the topic:
post us some sound clips, guys!

Here are some sample phrases for you:
"Construction unit reporting."
"Tactical mech, on the move!"
"Why hello there!"
"For logic!"
"For the legacy of man!"
"For MidKnight, who is pure awesome!"
"Raider vehicle, ready to move."
"Skirmisher here."
"Raider reporting."
"Assault unit, ready."
"Riot weapon, ready for combat!"
"Artillery, ready to fire."

Could you attach them to the correct functions this time?

I laugh when I click a solar and it states "Attacking".

I can do some of these, although some phrases sound better with stereotyped voices, does anyone else hear an African American man speak when reading riot weapon, ready for combat?

I dont know if its just me but the way in which you say riot tank is really odd.

it sounds like your saying the word president, ready for combat.
