More sound effects and music

Well this week I have been continuing the work on the sound effects and music, hopefully this week I will be done with the sound in its entirety I have gotten all the sound artefacts that are left except for the music for when the guards are in the alerted state.
I’ve been getting a few different sounds that are atmospheric for the game and good indicators for what is happening, such as the sound for locked doors which is a […]

Sound effects

This week I’ve been continuing the work on the different sound effects such as a sound for doors and when the baton hits a enemy. I’ll begin by talking about the choices I’ve made with the sounds for the baton and why the sound is not by any means perfect but it will suffice. It’s really hard to make it sound as if some thing is hitting flesh and bone so I made it sound more like it’s the baton […]

Sound effects and music

This week I’ve been working on making sound effects and finding some music fitting the theme of the game.
The sound effects take awhile to make since I’ve had to cut down the length of the sound while making sure it doesn’t sound choppy and at the same time making sure the sound effect blends in with the theme, the action that happens and the other sounds and or music.
I’ve been using audacity to work on the sound files it’s […]

Soundmanager in FMOD

You could read in a earlier post about my troubles with SFML and the sound which basically made it really annoying to use.
So this week I’ve spent making a new soundmanager in the library FMOD which was suggested to me by Tommi the programming teacher.
Using this library has been harder then I initially suspected since it’s very different from anything I’ve coded in before.

But there is very good documentation for the library even if it takes a while to […]
