ET sound modding

[[SFP]Nasty]

Hi, i wanna change the sounds in ET, I know it wont work in normal servers i just wanna do it for fun, i wanna change it to my language. Ive created an own pk3 file and named the directorys the same as in pak01 and in there i put a waw file named the same as in pak01. and when i start the game in a local server its just quiet when i test the sound i added. i would love some help, if its to complicated plz mail me at oskar.palsson@ipbolaget.com thx

well the ez way (not a verry perfect way) is to overwhite the old sounds

in that case you should name your pak to pak2.pk3

also make sure that the filenames and disrectory scructure siside the .pk3 si the same as in pak1.pk3

any error message in the console? like
cannot find /sounds/multiplayer/babla.wav ?

[=FF=im2good4u]

else you should add the new files to .sound files

i have tried both to overwrite the wav files in pak0.pk3 nad i tested to create a new pk3 file named pak02.pk3 with same directorys as pak0 and the same name as the wav. and still its just quiet when i say for example, Great Shot. and there is no error messsage in the console need help

[/*Demoman*/]

try adding a letter in front of the pk3

example: sound.pk3 is your file... try adding an s.. thus making it

s_sound.pk3

this is how I got the sound pk3 to overide the default one

[=FF=im2good4u]

deoamn :/ no

the packs overwhite in alphabetic folluw up like a is overwhitten by b abd b by c enz

also whit numers its the same 1 by 2
5 by 6

but

0 by 1
01 als by 1
1 not by 0

but have you cheacked your volume since it should work

its just quiet when i test the sound i added

If it's just quiet you could try increasing the volume.

@weak: wtf are you talking about??

[[SFP]Nasty]

i tested to name it both s_sound.pk3 and pak01.pk3 couse 01 overwrites 0 and it still doesnt work and i know it aint the volume

[=FF=im2good4u]

well if it doesnt work thne its wierd

Did you set the .wavs to the correct frequency and bitrate?

ehh, dont understand, me = noob plz explain

[WeblionX]

In programs like "Sound Recorder" that comes with Windows, under File -> Properties -> Convert Now, you can change the quality of the wav. For ET I believe it has to be 22Khz and I think it is 16 bit mono, though I could be wrong. If you load one of the origional sound files, you should be able to tell.

[Spoofeh]

Most sounds are 16bit/22.05kHz/mono, but there are a few 16bit/44.1kHz/mono ones.
