A few cool things have happened.

 

Not only did I finish the reorganization, which now looks like this:

  • ambients
    • ambience
    • nature
    • technology

    [*]sfx

    • game
    • movement
    • tools
    • world

But I have also written soundshaders for every single sound! Haha! Man that was booring, but now it's done, and I'm all happy. :)

 

But that's not enough! I also went through every single ambient sound I had lying around on my computer, and included them in the new folderstructure (renaming/fixing broken loops etc) as well! That means every sound submitted so far will be put on CVS once the merge is complete (including top-hits like: darkwood, alienbirds, clockwork, defiled church and many more!). EVERY ONE! You know how many that is? 169(!) And 99 SFX, so 268 files in total! 104megs!

Thx! That is really appreciated, because I know how BORING such a task is. :)

 

Does this mean, that we can remove all the sounds from CVS and upload them from scratch? If it is a bigger patch, you might pack it up and put it on FTP, where I can download it and put it in CVS. Might save you quite some time.

Booring is the word.

 

Yes, it a remove/reupload operation we're talking about. Unfortunately I haven't been able to log onto the FTP for a long time (which is really odd, since I work with other FTP sites almost daily, and never had this problem before) but I don't think I will have any trouble uploading it with CVS.

 

I'm more concerned for all the other poor team-members who are facing quite a huge download :)

so when it is time, do we completely delete our sound folder on our hard drive and then re-download it from cvs?

 

As long as they're deleted from the CVS repository on Spar's end, I think the program will delete everything for you once you sync up again. I'm not sure but I think deleteing them manually might screw something up.

I don't think that CVS will delete your stuff if you just sync up. I guess I have to test this though. I know that I deleted some files in CVS via the GUI frontend as you would do it, and they were deleted from my harddisk as well, but I don't know wether it will do this when you sync as well. It should though.

      I posted about it before, but I think the default tdm logo video looks outdated. For a (i.m.o.) better looking version, you can download the pk4 attached to this post and plonk it in your tdm root folder. Every mission that starts with the tdm logo then starts with the better looking one. Try for example mission COS1 Pearls and Swine.

      I finished DOOM - The Dark Ages the other day. It is a decent shooter, but not as great as its predecessors, especially because of the soundtrack.
