Not much of an OSP, but wanted to share this with everyone. Its the famous Wilhelm Scream. Its definitely fun to hear it pop up from time to time in giant battles. I've only tested with WFaS, but it should work just fine for WB as well.


Instructions for those that need them:

This is just a simple file containing the Wilhelm Scream.

If you aren't familiar with the name, you are surely familiar with the sound...


Add this file to your Modules/{MOD}/Sound folder.

You will also need to add in a line to either the module_sounds.py or sounds.txt file.

module_sounds.py
Search for "man_die". In WFaS, the section will look like this:
Code:
("man_die",sf_priority_10,  [["tatar_man_death_1.wav", fac_kingdom_3],
                              ["swed_man_death_1.ogg", fac_kingdom_4], ["swed_man_death_2.ogg", fac_kingdom_4],  ["swed_man_death_3.ogg", fac_kingdom_4],
                              ["death_generick_2.ogg", fac_kingdom_5],
                              ["death_generick_3.ogg", fac_kingdom_2],
                               "man_death_1.ogg","man_death_8.ogg","man_death_8b.ogg","man_death_11.ogg","man_death_14.ogg","man_death_16.ogg","man_death_18.ogg","man_death_21.ogg","man_death_29.ogg","man_death_40.ogg","man_death_44.ogg","man_death_46.ogg","man_death_48.ogg","man_death_64.ogg"]),

Simply add
Code:
,"WilhelmScream.ogg"
right before the final "])".


sounds.txt
Search for "man_death". In WFaS, the section will look like this:
Code:
 man_death_1.ogg 160
man_death_8.ogg 160
man_death_8b.ogg 160
man_death_11.ogg 160
man_death_14.ogg 160
man_death_16.ogg 160
man_death_18.ogg 160
man_death_21.ogg 160
man_death_29.ogg 160
man_death_40.ogg 160
man_death_44.ogg 160
man_death_46.ogg 160
man_death_48.ogg 160
man_death_64.ogg 160

Add "WilhelmScream.ogg 160" on the following line. 160 should be replaced by whatever numbers are at the end of the preceding lines.

You will also need to increment the number at the top of sounds.txt by 1.

I did some searching before posting it up and Wikipedia (I know its not the most official source) and archive.org both have it listed as public domain.
 
Unfortunately, I can't find any info about the Billy Dee Wilhelm Scream or the Howie Scream being public domain :sad:

:lol: Thats so funny....that scream was seriously used that much?

Used more than that... I just heard it last night watching Mad Men lol.  Turned to my wife and said "That was the Wilhelm Scream!" She looked at me like I was crazy.
