Recorded eating sounds

[AluminumHaste]

Recorded them myself

 

Apple eating: http://www.mediafire.com/?a0fo77oovdax8wx

 

Crunchy Bread eating: http://www.mediafire.com/?say2dc33h68aink

 

I've looked at current setup but can't figure out how to get them working in game. Right no eating anything in game plays like a sound of meat hitting the floor.

[New Horizon]

There should be several sounds for eating, but I guess they're not used. I recorded several when Brodie did the player vocals.

[Baddcog]

If I recall correctly right now we just use one crunch/gulp sound for everything. Would definitely be nice to have different ones for apples/carrots and bread.

[New Horizon]

I was sure I had uploaded multiple sounds...but perhaps they never made it into SVN.

[Tels]

If you are talking about the sounds the player makes, we only use these two (the first is a D3 sound):

 

te@te:~/.doom3/darkmod_org$ ack snd_eat def
def/tdm_moveable_food.def
24:	 "editor_snd snd_eaten"		  "The sound that is played when this moveable edible item gets eaten."
25:	 "snd_eaten"									 "burger_impact"
38:	 "snd_eaten"									 "food_apple_bite"

[New Horizon]

Really? I know I made more sounds than that. I had Brodie eat several things. I'll have to look that up when I get home.

[Tels]

At least on SVN we have only this file:

 

sound/meta/game/food_apple_bite01.ogg

 

(the others might be in a different folder, but since they are not used, it's a bit hard to search for them

 

Would be cool if we could get all new, d3-free sounds.

[New Horizon]

They should be in the player vocals folder, if they're anywhere. The player getting tired while holding the bow sounds were also not being used. I think Grayman was working on enabling them...they might even be ingame now. I haven't had a chance to check. Anyway, I'll look into those player eating sounds when I get home in an hour.

They're used now, and Springheel adjusted them to match the animation. All checked in.

[AluminumHaste]

Well I did edit the file and added snd_eaten entry to the apple eating entry and the bread eating entry, but the sound still wouldn't play.

 

Did anyone actually listen to the sounds I made?

I'm at work, so I can't yet, but I will. First and foremost though, I want to find out if the sounds I made were uploaded but just not being used. Then we can add your sounds to the mix as well.

[New Horizon]

Those recordings sound fine to me.

 

Also, in the voices/player folder...there is player_crunch 1 and 2. Lots of player eating choices now.

[Tels]

So should the apple biting sound be moved to the voices/player folder, too?

[AluminumHaste]

Okay I think I found out why my sounds aren't being played, console output shows this:

 

WARNING: Couldn't load sound 'food_bread_bite_crunch.wav' using default
WARNING: Couldn't load sound 'tdm_ai_builder2_sleep.wav' using default
WARNING: Couldn't load sound 'sound/voices/builders/builder2/ai_states/builder
WARNING: Couldn't load sound 'food_apple_bite_crunch.wav' using default
WARNING: Couldn't load sound 'tdm_ai_wench_find_soft_corpse_female.wav' usingdefault
WARNING: Couldn't load sound 'tdm_ai_critic_greet_to_noble_male.wav' using default

 

Why is the game looking for .wav files? I made them .ogg files the same as the others. I tried adding .ogg extension to the def entry but that didn't help.

 

Here is the code I changed for the food items:

 

entityDef atdm:moveable_food_apple
{
   "inherit"            "atdm:moveable_food_healthy_base"
   "model"                "models/darkmod/kitchen/food/apple.lwo"
   "mass"                "0.2"
   "editor_usage"        "An apple a day keeps a doctor away. Two apples a day keep two doctors away. See under Moveables/Junk for apple core.  This food heals 1 HP when eaten."

   "model_eaten"        "models/darkmod/junk/apple_core.lwo"
   "snd_eaten"            "food_apple_bite_crunch.ogg"

}

 

I also tried

 

   "snd_eaten"            "food_apple_bite_crunch"

 

But it still doesn't work. Does this need to be tracked?

[Springheel]

You don't use the actual sound file; you need to reference a sound shader.

[AluminumHaste]

I tried that first as that's how I thought it worked but that didn't work either. I'll try again. Thank you Springs

[AluminumHaste]

Okay I created a tdm_player.sndshd entry called

 

tdm_player_bread_crunch
{
sound/voices/player/food_bread_bite_crunch.ogg
}

 

I moved the food_bread_bite_crunch.ogg file to the sound/voices/player/ directory. Still getting no sound playing while eating bread and console still shows can't find food_bread_bite_crunch.wav using default

 

EDIT: Okay I realized I overwrote the base sound entry so fixed that now the console no longer shows that error. But when I eat a bunch of bread in Mandrasola I see this in the console:

 

Equip called

Equip called

WARNING: Couldn't load sound 'food_bread_bite_crunch.wav' using default

Equip called

Equip called

Equip called

Equip called

Equip called

So it's still doing something weird.

[AluminumHaste]

Okay, weird, I change the file name to player_crunch_3 and _4 and now the bread sound is working....

[AluminumHaste]

Yup working, but there's a new issue I discovered; when there's no junk entity, the sound is played where you ate the item. So if you walk away from where you ate the food you will here the sound diminish away.

Not sure what's up with the naming (that might one of these wierd sound bugs D3 has).

 

As for the "place where the sound comes from", I guess that the sound should be played at another channel (e.g. the VOICE channel), which is omnidirectional (so it always appears to come from everywhere including your own head).

 

That very probably needs to be fixed in the code that calls snd_eaten. If you make a bug tracker, I can look into it.

 

Edit: It might be easily fixable by yourself:

 

change this line:

 

ent.startSound("snd_eaten", SND_CHANNEL_ANY, false);

 

in script/tdm_equip_actions.script line 30. Try this:

 

// cache the sound first, otherwise startSoundShader might miss it
$player1.cacheSoundShader( ent.GetKey("snd_eaten") );
$player1.startSoundShader( ent.GetKey("snd_eaten"), SND_CHANNEL_VOICE );

 

That should play the sound as the player voice, instead of a sound starting from the entity that you are eating.

[AluminumHaste]

Yeah thanks Tels <3 That code worked perfectly with all the food I tried. I hope you don't mind I committed those changes to SVN along with the other sound stuff. Only issue was the GetKey caused a crash, it needs to be getKey. I'm going to bed now, see you in the morning

 

The bread only has 1 sound for now, I actually bought a french loaf made fresh earlier today so I'll record some of that tomorrow. Also have carrot sounds that I need to work on. Go check em out

The code was written "dry", e.g. I didn't try it out so excuse the typo And I don't mind, if you hadn't committd it, I had to do it As long as TDM gets better, I don't care who does what

 

Reading the comment on "startSoundShader()", I wonder if we shouldn't fix it so that it plays the sound even if it isn't cached yet. Having to issue the caching before seems very cumbersome...

 

I look forward to hearing these sound

[AluminumHaste]

Okay 2 carrot sounds added. I created a quick map and uploaded it to SVN, it's in the /maps folder called foodtest.map. Just dmap and run it, there's a table with bread, apples and some carrots to test out the different sounds.
