Greetings to the X-Null community! Electrickrypt reporting to duty, lol. I've come back to hang out with the MOHAA OG's with the urge to do some hardcore modding. It's obvious that I've been MIA for quite some time and tons of mods and fixes have been created. However, I have yet to see someone work on and/or release an update to the games sound effects (or ubersound.scr). This is where I plan to continue my journey of modding.
Years ago, I spent at LEAST 25-30 hours on completely re-writing the sound.scr files that included fixes to broken sound strings, additional sounds that were never called properly or disabled and also an expansion to enable additional sound effects that are included in the game but were never used as intended. My theory is that the developers never completed the audio of the game; which is obvious if you read the .scr files. I even started to add more HD sfx (very small file sizes) to the games that were appropriate when it comes to adding depth to the audio, such as ADDITIONAL bullet zings or a couple more sounds to the rifle firing so that the couple sounds used aren't so repetitive. All of that work and data of mine was lost due to a failed HD without any backups. I was so pissed that I pretty much quit MOHAA entirely after that.
This sfx update works on the entire MOH series via one PK3 and increases the game's depth of audio. I am now in the process of getting started on it once again as from what I recall, it worked flawlessly and I couldn't wait to finish it. What I am looking for help with is finding all of the sound fixes for the entire MOHAA series, AA, SH & BT. Of course, I have the stock Ubersounds for each of the series, but there is more to combine than just three scripts and the basic UberSound fixes. Back then, I spent a couple hours finding every (uber)sound fix and that data was also lost. There are more sources besides the one UberSound fixes. If anyone knows of any sources to download any and/or has a backup themselves, I would greatly appreciate if you share with me. I am also looking for any additional sound fixes. I know they are out there because I had many while working on this update in the past.
Thanks in advance,
