Search for component : web and do what you want http://trac.wildfiregames.com/report/1Actually that's a pretty bad idea since there is none of those things he can do without us giving him access first So while your willingness to help out by pointing him in the right direction is a good thing, it doesn't help much in this specific case I'm afraid. And most of those things should be quick to do for our current web guy provided we've got a few other things sorted out first. So Zion's help is more useful in other matters anyway Sound is definitely the area where your help would be most appreciated Zion, however, just because it is the area where most help is needed it can also be a bit hard to get things going optimally. We do have another applicant who's been interested in the sound manager position, and I asked the guy who's previously been in charge of sounds to evaluate him, but unfortunately he hasn't had time yet. In either case this situation means that we don't have the full picture on what sounds are needed/which needs to be updated etc. However, we do want lock/unlock sounds for the gates, and I don't think anyone else has been working on those, so if you would like to record one of each of those (you can of course record a couple of variations) that would be great.

feneur Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 I will to asked who is Zion? xDHe says in his application that:Name:My name is Zion, i am more known by my friends as "Z" So I could also have said Z, though personally I find it weird to use just one character to refer to someone, so I used the entire name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noizmaker Posted March 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 (edited) so a couple of variants of a gate opening and closing, this could be fun!!!I do need a few things for this task, First of all the length on the clip needed.also is there a special request for this clip did you want me to do something special with it. or would less be more in this case.

feneur Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 so a couple of variants of a gate opening and closing, this could be fun!!!No, not gate opening and closing, locking/unlocking (i.e. lock sounds), we already have the gate open/close sounds. They might need improving for all I know, but let's start with getting new sounds into the game rather than changing the old ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noizmaker Posted March 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 (edited) alright i think i may be able to make some thing for you for locking and unlocking, give me about *REDACTED* this should not take longEDIT: i am having far to much fun might take a little longer Edited March 2, 2014 by Noizmaker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noizmaker Posted March 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 First iteration for you, Tell me what you think.https://www.dropbox.com/sh/xbpllfkqb3vehhk/tQTmLCBxTA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanderd17 Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 Glad to have someone working on sound again. The others we've had so far weren't bad, but they had little time available. That said, I think time is the most important thing you need to work on this game. Since you're from Australia (and most activity is during European evening), and since nobody else is actively working on sounds. You'll also have to be able to work rather independently (learning to work with our sound system). You won't be added to the team immediately (nobody is), you'll first have to show how you work in all aspects (quality of work, communication, ability to get something done ...) If you have technical questions, you can drop by on the #0ad-dev IRC channel on QuakeNet (again, there's more response during European evening). EDIT: just heard the sound. Good start. The pitch is a bit high though, and I wonder if a single sound wouldn't work better in game than those two clicks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noizmaker Posted March 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 iteration 2added a little bass making it sound heavier and made it a single pass sound, it sounds good with the music tracks.https://www.dropbox.com/sh/xbpllfkqb3vehhk/tQTmLCBxTA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 I like the sound, it brings to mind the sound of a metal gate being locked. Could you perhaps try another variation adding a more "woody" sound (for the lack of a better word). Perhaps some sort of thunk of a metal lock hitting wood? (I don't make any of the game's sounds so it's just a suggestion) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noizmaker Posted March 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 Was thinking one click for unlocking, two clicks for locking?or maybe, 1 thump (wood brace added to back of door) for lock and 2 thumps (light thump for removing the brace and 2nd thump for throwing it on the ground)What do you think??
