My custom sound scheme!!!

[beatthelastboss]

Hey everyone, guess what?!?!!? I WAS BORED!!!

So, inspired by this: http://www.joystiq.com/2009/09/22/dude-replaces-half-life-2-sound-effects-with-own-voice/

I took the liberty to replace every sound in Spelunky with my own, 14 year old voice

First, some FAQ's, which will save me a heap of questions later:

Who?

Me  

What?

I replaced sounds in Spelunky, did I not already say that???

When

A long long time ago

Where

A galaxy far, far away...

Why?

I was bored.

How?

Using the program audacity and the power of science!

Ok, serious questions now...

How do I replace the sounds from the original?

Good question!

Step 1: Download my file here:

Thanks very muchly to Arucard for providing the backup, after willhostforfood crapped out on me 

Step 2: Unzip it with Winzip, 7zip, Winrar, or a somewhat loose damsel  

Step 3: Make sure the unzipped stuff goes to a random file called "sound". Make sure it isn't in your spelunky folder!

Step 4: Backup your spelunky folder, or at least the "sound" folder inside it by copying and pasting it somewhere else.

Step 5: Drag your new sound folder into the spelunky file, boot up spelunky, and enjoy!

Why didn't you include the music?

You can try if you want, but when I did, it was too loud for you to hear MY sounds!

Enjoy, and just for talkativeness' sake, whats your favorite one of my sound effects?

P.S. One more time, here is the file if you missed it:

That is freaking hilarious. Good job, dude.

[beatthelastboss]

Thanks! Glad you liked it! My next idea is for one with only high res versions

i.e. A real shotgun blast instead of the pixelated normal ones

P.S. My favorite is the "Leaving" sound

this
is
fantastic

I did start to find the 'thump' of air in the mic from the 'p' at the end of 'jump' rather annoying after a while, but otherwise this is the way i shall play the game from now on! XD

Also the idea of real noises is great, although some of the more distinctly videogamey ones (eg: jangling noises when you get $$$) would be difficult to adapt

SUPERQUICKEDIT: -_- reading my post I realised: jangling noises could be glasses knocking against each other or something.

Made me fall on the ground laughing.

John,

Yeah, sorry bout the mic, I tried to fix it up, keep it mind it was WAY worse before I edited it up with audacity! I may update when I am bored again with some new sounds

Anyone else who feels up to this,

This idea is not trademarked or anything, so have fun and make your own sound scheme if you would like! Keep in mind it took me about 30-45 minutes altogether, but was REALLY fun.

P.S. The funnest one to do is the ghost 

[AresRomanGod]

Hm. You should try doing the last boss.

[beatthelastboss]

I believe it is un-editable, as it is not in the default sound folder. Besides, I don't even know what the final boss IS 

[Kegluneq]

Nice, but the damsel's scream scares me.

*grabs item*

"Mine!"

Cool, I'll try it in a minute, gotta download the files and stuff first. I've already changed the Music files before, but I started to miss the old music, so I changed it back. Anyway, I'll try it soon.

Edit: By the way, you can attach the file to the bottom of your post too.

This sounds like it's going to be awesome to play around with!! I have yet to try it out yet, but I plan on doing so shortly. Thanks!!

[grieck]

Damn thing won't download!

[Ninja_Zane]

I want to download this but, the fucking site just has ads‼ Please put up a new download link, slave friend.

[beatthelastboss]

Darn! I used to use "Willhostforfood" for all the files I wanted to host, and then it just went away without warning 

Anybody with a backup, I would be tremendously obliged!
