Why does every stumpy sounds exactly the same?

[Auswaschbar]

Well, it doesn't have to, because you can now add some randomness to your sounds (in sounds.lua):

Code: Select all

RandomizedUnitSound = {
	file = "sounds/boringunitsound.wav",
	gain = 1.5,
	gainmod = 0.1,
	pitch = 1,
	pitchmod = 0.02,
},

Every time RandomizedUnitSound gets played, it will randomly select a gain from [(gain * (1 + gainMod)), (gain * (1 - gainMod))], the same goes for pitch. Obviously, *mod values should stay between 0 (old behaviour, now default) and 1.

Should be used to make battles sound more exiting. Don't overdo it, especially pitchmod will sound weird on larger values.

Nifty! Does this work with Spring.PlaySoundFile as well?

[Auswaschbar]

It works from everywhere

[Caydr]

I simulate this by just moving my camera around a lot.

what about control over playback speed for mickey mouse voices?

pitch is what you look for, althought it just makes mickey mouse voice without increased playback speed.

I'll probably get around to it myself however if someone wants to make a config (even a script generated one which within an acceptable margin of not sounding too wierd) for BA i'd happily review it and probably add it.

Hey, if you used the unit's unique ID to seed the values, then you could have unique consistent sounds! I would love to have a pet stumpy that made a particular pitch I liked :D

BTW this is in BA now for a load of sounds including llt lasers, kbot servos (Core AK), flak explosions and of course the stumpy :)

In 7.11?

[TheFatController]

Yeah 7.1+

[Gota]

Hmm i opened sounds.lua and didn't see this command there.
In BA 7.11.

Yea i saw that.
Don't you need to use "randomizedunitsounds"?

I'm sorry wut?

[Erom]

[hunterw]

its because they didnt sounds exactly the same
