Sound Effects Replacement

From OpenTTD

Note
This project is not yet finalised. Please see the forums for more information (see External Links below).

This page lists all TTD sound effects that will need to be recorded or otherwise replaced for a complete set of free sounds that can be distributed with OpenTTD. If you would like to contribute something, please add your name to the appropriate section and change the status to Work in Progress, {{WIP}}. When you are finished, change the status to Done, {{Done}} and add the sound files or a link to them.

[edit] Technical details

Sounds should be uploaded as 44,100Hz, 16-bit mono WAV or FLAC files. If sourcing sound effects from free libraries online, please ensure they are licenced under the GNU General Public Licence, or a free licence such a Creative Commons licence that permits reuse. (TODO: Clarify licencing)

There will be a new sound file format developed for OpenTTD, likely using .tar files in a manner similar to that of the new graphics. Until then, tools will be made available to enable work to go on using the existing sample.cat format.

[edit] Sound effects

Note that the descriptions below are taken from the original sample.cat file from TTD. They are not always accurate, so this table should probably be updated with better descriptions. Samples of the actual sound will be posted up soon.
