Sounds.tbl is a file for defining the various sounds played ingame.


Format

  • Table file consists of several sections
  • First section defines the sound for the actual game play. It begins at #Game Sounds Start and ends at#Game Sounds End
  • Second section defines the interface sounds. It starts at #Interface Sounds Start and ends at #Interface Sounds End
  • Third section defines the flyby sounds for different species. It begins at #Flyby Sounds Start and ends at #Flyby Sounds End


Game Sounds

  • Defines the game sounds by means of an index. Indexing must remain intact, so removing entries is not recommended. However adding new ones or altering existing ones is possible
  • Cockpit sounds are in general non-3D sounds that ought to be of type '0', however all the other in-flight sounds are in general 3D sounds and ought to of type '1' (or type '2')
  • Each sound is defined on a single line that begins with $Name:
    • First value is the index number of the sound (Integer)
    • Second value is the name of actual sound file (String, filename). The name of the file can be replaced with 'empty' if the particular sound index is not in use
    • Third value sets the file to always preloaded before the mission (Integer, 0 or 1)
    • Fourth value defines the playing volume of the sound in percentages (Float, from 0 to 1)
    • Fifth value sets the sound type to either standard sound (type '0'), 3D stereo sound (type '1'), or Aureal A3D (type '2'). This defaults to 3D stereo if it is not available (Integer, 0, 1 or 2)
    • Sixth and seventh values are used to define the attenuation distances for the 3D sounds. These are not used with normal non-3D sounds (type 0)
      • Sixth value defines the distance from the origin of sound where it begins to attenuate (Integer)
      • Seventh value sets the distance from the origin of the sound where it is inaudible (Integer)


Interface Sounds

  • Defines the game interface sounds. Uses sounds indexes as well. Indexing must remain intact so removing entries is not recommended. However adding new ones or altering existing ones is possible
  • Interface sounds are not 3D sounds. Use type '0' sounds
  • Each sound is defined on a single line that begins with $Name:
    • First value is the index number of the sound (Integer)
    • Second value is the name of actual sound file (String, filename). The name of the file can be replaced with 'empty' if the particular sound index is not in use.
    • Third value sets the file to always preloaded before the mission (Integer, 0 or 1)
    • Fourth value defines the playing volume of the sound in percentages (Float, from 0 to 1)
    • Fifth value set the sound type to either standard sound (type '0'), 3D stereo sound (type '1'), or Aureal A3D (type '2') which defaults to 3D stereo if it is not available. For interface sounds, these are all type '0'. (Integer, 0, 1 or 2)


Flyby Sounds

  • Each species has two flyby sounds. One for the fighters and one for the bombers.
  • Flyby sounds are all 3D sounds of type '1'
  • Each flyby sound is defined on a single line that begins with the species name (String, species name, eg. $Terran:)
    • First ( is the ship flyby type. Type '0' for fighters, and type '1' for bombers. (Integer, 0 or 1)
    • Second value is the name of actual sound file (String). The name of the file can be replaced with 'empty' if the particular sound index is not in use.
    • Third value sets the file to always preloaded before the mission (Integer, 0 or 1).
    • Fourth value defines the playing volume of the sound in percentages (Float, from 0 to 1)
    • Fifth value set the sound type to either standard sound (type '0'), 3D stereo sound (type '1'), or Aureal A3D (type '2') which defaults to 3D stereo if it is not available. For flyby sounds, they should be all be type '1'. (Integer, 0, 1 or 2)
    • Sixth and seventh values are used to define the attenuation distances for the 3D sounds. These are not used with normal non-3D sounds (type 0)
      • Sixth value defines the distance from the origin of sound where it begins to attenuate (Integer)
      • Seventh value sets the distance from the origin of the sound where it is inaudible (Integer)
