Eldritch Posted October 23, 2002 Share Posted October 23, 2002 Originally posted by inbredyokel You know, lots of recording studios are in basements, so I'll take that as a complement (j/k). Really though, it's totally up to what kman/toonces prefer. I simply offered to do the sounds because it seems kman doesn't exactly have loads of spare time for this model, and I can tell you it would be bad if Plo had to use even a few default sounds. Once the skins are finished, you know there will be hoards of people screaming "gimme gimme gimme," and at that point it would be nice to have a carefully selected sound pack ready, rather than one hastily thrown together to please the masses and get the model out sooner. Good point. I wouldn't want Plo to use any "stock" sounds from Outcast either. And I really don't care if he has telepathic taunts or speaking ones. And why can't he have both? Just because he has a mask on doesn't mean that he has to sound like Psycho Mantis from Metal Gear Solid... I'm sure he can talk normally if he wants to. I think a carefully selected sound pack is the perfect compliment to this great model, so I wish luck to everyone that is working on it or contributes to it.

KMan Posted October 23, 2002 Share Posted October 23, 2002 I have a gas mask at the house here, I'm gonna see how that sounds. Might take it to my schools sound recording studio and get a few samples. Just an idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait to see how it turns out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t3rr0r Posted October 23, 2002 Share Posted October 23, 2002 finally someone agrees about trying a sound affected by a mask... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldritch Posted October 23, 2002 Share Posted October 23, 2002 Was that idea brought up at some point? Did I miss a meeting or something? I must've, because I think a mask sound is a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t3rr0r Posted October 23, 2002 Share Posted October 23, 2002 i mentioned something pertaining to a metallic [mask] sound at some point earlier in this thread... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PalnGipanji Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 Why do you need a mask? Can't you use Lowband/Highband noise filters to create that kind of effect? I suppose it's convenient that you have a mask, but the sound may come out huffy with your breath spread by the mask. I dunno... seems like something that can be done in software. Whoever is working on the sounds (KMan, I guess?), have you decided what Plo is going to say and how he should sound? I just hope he doesn't turn out sounding like a Stormtrooper.

Deetox187 Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 I think you should just take some normal sounds and add an echo to make it sound kinda telepathic. maybe something like this (right click save target as) http://www.geocities.com/deetox1900/example.mp3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sound effect is great, but I can't imagine hearing it well in-game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAIK HUAT Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 how comes toonces doing the model now instead of the other guy, ive been bizzy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professor Snape Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 i think that sounds perfect. Plo is telepathic. So he won't talk regular. The way u made it sound is perfect for some1 with telepathy. Put that one on or the one about the darkness. And they are perfect, if these ppl don't like it, they should just not use taunts then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right and you are wrong, yes the sound the way it is would not be easily heard in game.. but thats nothing a little amplification won't fix, i just increased the volume by 3db and tested it in game as a taunt, i could hear it just fine.

And they are perfect, if these ppl don't like it, they should just not use taunts then As no one knows for sure in the canon of Star Wars whether Plo is telepathic or not, why not have both a speaking taunt (with the thru the mask sound) and a telepathic one. Even if he was telepathic he would most likely use both if he could. Then everyone is happy and all bases are covered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zathu Koon Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 Ack, 2 different types of taunts? One sound theme, one taunt type. Sounds simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldritch Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 Yeah, but one sound theme, 2 taunts that sound like they've come from the same guy (either telepathic or regular) satisfies everyone... No one complained when Vader and Luke used telepathy to communicate in ESB - if they can use both, why not Plo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark_spectre Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 what you could have is the 'telepathic' taunts and for the sounds of him getting hurt something else. i dont think someone who is telepathic will cry out through his or her mind but rather grunt or something along those lines.

GreenDevil Posted October 27, 2002 Share Posted October 27, 2002 That could work... make a combination of both Though, I do still think that the ones from the Clone Campaigns should be added... at first I didn't like them, but the more you listen to them the more you can picture Plo saying them...

Well if someone could send me the sounds for him, from the Clone Campaigns, I can take a look at them and see if any of them could be used, or worked off of.

Padawan_7 Posted October 28, 2002 Share Posted October 28, 2002 I can send them to you Kman. In fact, I have already started to make those sounds into a complete sound pack (with pain sound, etc.). But, with college I haven't really had a chance to fine tune them. If you want I can send them to you and you can finish them up. Where should I e-mail them to?

Padawan_7 Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 Okay, I just sent the sounds to KMan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KMan Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 Alright, I see them in my inbox. I'll take a look at them when I get home from work. Now that school has started back up, I can see about using their sound stage for some extra recordings. I doubt my voice would sound very good through a gas mask, so I'm gonna get someone with a deeper voice to help me out. Also take some breath clips.

seks03 Posted October 31, 2002 Share Posted October 31, 2002 toonces..... has there been any updates on this model? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldritch Posted October 31, 2002 Share Posted October 31, 2002 I'm not sure how much Toonces is involved in this model, seks (if at all). MisterPunch did the modeling, KMan is doing the skinning/rigging/sounds... is Toonces even involved in this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonces Posted October 31, 2002 Share Posted October 31, 2002 Yeah, I actually rigged the model. I've seen an early version of the skin too and it's very nice even in a early state. The weighting on the unrobed is complete for now, I'm going to wait until KMan finishes his skin before I tweak some more, it'll be easier for work out deformations that way. It'll definatly be worth the wait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
