Ishtvan 17 Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 We need a sound for when you want to drop an item from your inventory into the world (including a shouldered body) but there is no room to put it in front of you. In Thief, this was a generic grunt "ugh", in TDS, it was the much-reviled "uh-uh." Currently we have no sound, and without any feedback, it just feels like the game missed the drop command when you try to drop and there's no room. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

saxmeister 9 Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 How about a non-intrusive "tone" that would let the user know that the action isn't working? Below are a few ideas (intentionally quiet so as not to disturb the player as much): darkmod_nodrop01.oggdarkmod_nodrop02.oggdarkmod_nodrop03.ogg If not we can create a typical "grunt" sound.

Springheel 4683 Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 I have a feeling those could easily be missed if there were ambient music playing. Personally, a simple grunt is the least immersion-breaking sound I can think of as feedback.

saxmeister 9 Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 Okay, I have included four to try. I tried to match the character's voice as much as I could although my voice is a bit deeper. But, hopefully it is close enough to not be distracting. darkmod_vox_nogrunt01.oggdarkmod_vox_nogrunt02.oggdarkmod_vox_nogrunt03.oggdarkmod_vox_nogrunt04.ogg Quote "Without music to decorate it, time is just a bunch of boring production deadlines or dates by which bills must be paid."- Frank Zappa Link to post Share on other sites
