Yet more progress - sound effects!

[Karl G.]

I coded everything for the sound effects this morning, so they're now in the game and ready to use! The support includes N-buffering (you can have up N number of simultaneous sounds playing at the same time), sound cache, so sounds are stored in memory for fast access, and support for changing volume, frequency and the left/right pan of a sound.

I fully intend to use this to its largest effect: effects to the left of the player will be played more on the left-speaker according to how far along the screen they are. Also, effects further away from the player will be a bit softer than those right next to him or her.

Thadius, would you mind setting up a sound effects area on PV.com which can do something similar to the gallery (I.E. someone uploads a sound and it appears in a gallery which can be played online)? My brother Erich made a BUNCH of sound effects a while ago and I'd like to share them with you guys. They're actually quite good!

woooo!
Seems like you are really going the mile to make Project Volucris more advanced than xenimus is.

Yeah Karl, great job on the sounds.

As for the gallery of sounds, I'll see what I can do for that, but for now we can just use the directory listing and/or browse it using the file uploader interface.

sounds should be easy to make. All you need to do is go like "uhhh" into a mic and BAM youve got a attack sound effect

[thadiusofx3]

(sounds about like what EJ did)
I think we have enough talent to make better attack sounds than EJ lol
