Ice footsteps sound?

[Deadlove]

Ignore if this is already a part of the game, but I am curious if we have sound FX for ice on ground for footsteps?

 

Small patches of ice amongst snow (or ice in general) that make a louder crackling noise to make players more cautious / throwing in random "oh my gosh I just made a loud noise" thing would make a nice touch to fear factor.

 

Movement being effected such as sliding on ice would be nice too, but I guess it would be easier for footsteps to be implemented before a surface effecting speed / mobility.

 

Thoughts?

I think so

I've asked for new ice footsteps but we don't have any atm.

From what I can find that should exist as of http://bugs.thedarkmod.com/view.php?id=2409(Although someone on the Newbie DR thread said the Slick material wasn't working for him/her.) Dragofer's 'One Step Too Far' has ice, and I think I remember sliding on it.

Thanks! :-)

As I've promised earlier, I'll try to make some, and record them in a sound-dampened environment (I have a bit of experience with that, despite not having top-notch sound recording equipment at home). The downside is that winter has already passed and we didn't have that much nicely crackling ice this winter anyway. But that's nothing a little trickery with water, a freezer, a baking tray, a soft pad and a heavy boot can't fix.

Are the footsteps sounds set at a default volume level? Is there a way to change their volume, louder to lower from the default volume?

[Dragofer]

There is an ice texture - you will keep sliding a bit every time you move, make footsteps that sound like you're walking on marble tiles, and there's a reflective icy sheen across its surface when it's in the light.

I have here a bunch of sounds from the Severance blade of Darkness game, theres very nice snow walking and running sounds, some even with armature, don't know what is the policy on using sounds from other games, i bet that is not good but i think there is no problem, TDM being free plus severance being very old and the rights are in limbo right now, but i comprehend if you guys don't want that.

You're suspicion is right I'm afraid: we use assets only with explicit authorisation from the ip holder. It's not enough that we probably wouldn't get sued for using something.

Ok i comprehend and you are right to be careful.
