Kyshakk Koan RaustBlackDragon Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 (edited) I was watching happy tree friends recently, and I think I heard something at the end of the video, a sound effect that's also been used repeatedly in Spiderweb Software games. I never noticed it before! Warning: Very Very bloody, if you don't know what happy tree friends is.

Hatchling Cockatrice Lilith Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 it's pretty common for people who need sounds to just buy a licence to a big ol' sound library with lots of generic sounds all up ins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk adc. Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 I heard it. It sounds 99.99% exactly on one of the sound effects in Avernum. Surprising. -------- Hehehe, I used to laugh at that cartoon since childhood -------- Umm... Tyranicus, I think the embedded video is still up... -------- -A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotghroth Rhapsody BJ Back From the Beyond Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 I'm pretty sure I heard the background sounds from the Avernum caves in an episode of SG: Atlantis once. Triumph 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Trenton. Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Erm? What am I missing? What's the sound effect? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Aran Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 I don't hear anything either. Is it really at the end of the video, or at the end of the animation before the credits? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unflappable Drayk The Loquacious Lord Grimm Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 it's pretty common for people who need sounds to just buy a licence to a big ol' sound library with lots of generic sounds all up ins Not to mention free online sounds (check the credits, Jeff cites a few in the latest Avernum), and lots and lots and lots of sharing. Digital recording made life sooo much easier. To my wife's chagrin, I constantly point out sounds that are in my library when we watch TV. Also, Wilhelms, which annoys her because she still hasn't figured out which one he is yet. The Silent Assassin is outside right now, preparing for the hurricane by attempting to convert some lawn decorations into wind generators. Hey, as long as it keeps him away from the valuable stuff inside, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Dikiyoba Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 I don't hear anything either. Is it really at the end of the video, or at the end of the animation before the credits? It's at the end of the animation before the credits, and it's hard to pick out. Dikiyoba knows that Trine shares several sound effects with Spiderweb games.

Easygoing Eyebeast keira Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 (edited) I always hear this generic radio-talking-police station background noise, and I always associate it with SC3kU because that was when I first heard it. There's also a cold-ass-wind-blowing-past-snowcapped-mountains sounding noise that I associate with Rail Tycoon 2.

On a totally off-topic note, how did you do that? I can't even quote myself without making an HTML mess. Edit: Oooooh! I see this newfangled and mildly irritating wysiwyg editor is good for something after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast The Mystic Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 I think it sort of sounds like one of the sound effects, but not quite. Also, thanks to that video, I seriously doubt I'll ever listen to "Dueling Banjos" the same way again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon The Almighty Doer of Stuff Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 It's not hard to pick out if you know what you're listening for. I listened to it three times and then I got it. It's that double crunch, when the dinosaur's leg gets bit. It's a slightly higher crunch, followed by a slightly lower crunch. It's been used at least as far back as Avernum 1, and maybe even BoE but I forget. It's a "monster dies" sound. EDIT: Now I remember! It is in BoE, as a PC dying sound, accompanied by a low-pitch "OOOGH!" I believe that's how it's used in Avernum too. Actually maybe it's not in BoE, it's been a while since I paid attention to BoE sounds, but I was playing Avernum recently and it's definitely there.

Seasoned Roamer Xazo-Tak Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 I'm pretty sure I heard the background sounds from the Avernum caves in an episode of SG: Atlantis once. I hear that sound all the time. Half the time I hear a cave sound effect, it is that exact sound effect. Ugh, now I have that stuck on my head.

Kyshakk Koan Lauren CW Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I hear sound effects that I originally heard in Doom 2 all over the place for the last 10+ years. It has always really amused me. The alert noise from the Spider Mastermind is heard ALL OVER. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Actaeon Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Xazo-Tak, please do not resurrect threads that are nearly six months old. Thank you! Or, at the very least, be very certain the necromancy is worth it. Also worth keeping in mind in real life. It's a real pain when your undead army turns on you. Edit: Nobody tell Eph I said that. I don't fancy a smiting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
