Hej allesammans,
I recently did a survey of the sounds used (by
grepping on .wav in the
datadir) in Wesnoth, and found some references to
non-existing sounds.
These I have replaced with the sound that I think
they were intended to
refer to.
However, there are some sound files in sounds/ that
are never used, at
least not in the datadir. Some of them are used by
src, f ex when
joining the mp lobby and such.:
arrive.wav
bell.wav
eagle.wav
groan-strong.wav
heal.wav (used AFAIK)
leave.wav (used AFAIK)
pistol.wav
receive.wav (used AFAIK)
squishy-miss.wav (perhaps not used because not very
good?)
squishy-strike.wav (perhaps not used because not
very good?)
sword-clang.wav
I then took a look at the missing sounds, and IMO
there are some
existing sounds that could be used in some places.
I made a list, but IMO it got too long to include in
a mail, so I put
it here (note only attack sounds surveyed so far):
http://web.telia.com/~u35111888/wesnoth/sounds.html
Sum up of suggestions: (there are others too, please
see list)
Use sword-swish.wav for all swords (including
baneblades) and axes.
Also assume that the berserkers use axes, and use
sword-swish.wav there
too.
Use hiss.wav (or possibly big-hiss.wav) for all
water/ink spraying
attacks
Use eagle.wav for the gryphons claws-attacks
Use magicmissile for all ranged magic attacks
Do not use any sound for all touch attacks
Use arrow-hit.wav and arrow-miss.wav for thorns (or
possibly dart.wav,
but a bit too metallic IMO)
Most needed sounds:
Spear being used a close range, could also be used
for pike and
halberd.
Trident
fangs - not sure if same could be used for all the
various units using
a fangs-attack, but perhaps some sort of feral
snarl?
Sound for net/gossamer/entangle/ensnare
If I can find the energy, I will look at the
get_hit_sounds too *smile*
