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.

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?

      Looks like the "Reverse April Fools" releases were too well hidden. Darkfate still hasn't acknowledge all the new releases. Did you play any of the new April Fools missions?
