Sfx For Broadhead Destroyed?

[Ishtvan]

Do we have a sound effect for a broadhead arrow hitting something that makes it break, like stone? Also, we may need sounds for broadheads sticking into things other than wood, like outdoor ground.

 

I tried the "wood destroyed" sounds, but those all sound like they're more for a crate being destroyed rather than a small object like a broadhead striking stone.

Yes, the material_wood_destroyed sounds are meant for wooden objects like crates, doors etc etc. (This also goes for the material_wood_impact sounds)

 

We don't have a broadhead break sound yet. I'll check what it sounded like in Thief and see if I can do something similar.

[Ishtvan]

I looked through the D3 sounds to see if a placeholder could be found, but nothing got quite near the sound. I guess it's a pretty unique sound.

You mean the sound of shotgun fire hitting hellish demon spawn doesn't sound right?? What nerve! The sound is perfect in T2. Pleasant and subtle. I hope we can create something that evokes similar positive emotion.

[Ishtvan]

It usually wasn't a positive emotion for me. It was "Oh crap, my rope arrow just broke when it missed wood and hit stone!"

We'll also need SFX for broadheads hitting and sticking in different surfaces, in addition to wood.

 

High priority:

-Broadhead striking flesh

 

-Bouncing off armor (on hold until we have tested the texture dependent damage system)

 

Lower priority, other surfaces:

carpet dirt grass snow sand mud twigs straw foliage (some of these might sound the same)

Noisemaker

 

Are there any plans for getting a noisemaker sound ingame soon? Am I remembering right that we decided it would sound like a series of clicks from wound-up clockwork (sort've like a woodpecker bird), rather than the fireworks of TDS?

 

I might as well put all my random sound requests in this thread.

I'll work on creating a noisemaker sound today/tomorrow.
