B Musket Era With Audio and Visuals NEW VERSION RELEASED MAY 21st

[Temuzu]

With Audio and Visuals​

Hello, comrades, look at your copy of WFaS, now back to me, now back at your game, now back to me.
Sadly, most of the sounds and effects suck like a capitalists self-esteem, but if you stopped using the Native audio and effects and started using With Audio and Visuals, you could play like you always wanted.
Look down, back up, where are you?
You're in the middle of the smokecloud of the freshly shot volley.
What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, its that pathetic puff of smoke from the Native. Look again, the puff is now realistic!
Anything is possible when you play With Audio and Visuals.
I’m on a horse thats movement sounds are louder.​

So incase you missed it, With Audio and Visuals (WAaV from now on) is a mod that aims to improve WFaS in most aspects. The first release of WAaV, will attempt to mostly replace and/or improve the audio experience of WFaS, by packing together the greatest of the audio/effects mods the community comes up with, in a neat little package!

Heres a little gameplay presentation of what Ive done so far: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nr8UifvrYBQ

I dont think I forgot anyone, theres one sound from a rather big game series, but you'll see it ingame (Single)

Well, something I always wanted is a new crosshair. Simpler and more elegant. Along the lines of Hunt´s one.

Its possible to add flora/grass and all that without MS? Because using elements from PL would really fit, and would add variety.

 

[Temuzu]

Adding a new crosshair shouldnt be hard. Ill see what I can do.

Polished Landscapes... I dont think it would fit in with the rest of WFaS textures, so Im going to say no.

Also, I took a look at scening, and after checking out Smolensk... Pathetic. Needs a full makeover.

EDIT. Also, its possible to add more people walking around the towns/villages. Do you think I should try and implent it, once the Module System is released? Adds like, 5 or more times the people walking around.

 

[Temuzu]

I gotta start posting more updates so this doesnt fall to the second page

First pictures of Smolensk, looking much more city-like to me. How about you people?

Hahaha, awesome intro, totally old spice.

Good luck with your project Temuzu.

 

[Temuzu]

Thanks.

So I found out how to add music, and Ill be trying to replace all of the current music with something new. Right now I have replaced the Menu song with Miklagard Overture by Turisas, but Im open for suggestions regarding music aswell.

 

[Temuzu]

Alright, Smolenks center is nearly done, only need to add AI pathing and entry points.

Heres some pictures of the 90% done scene. Hope you like it.

EDIT. I have replaced the sound you hear at the campaign map when youre near a battle, and also replaced the mace/blunt weapon hit sounds. Both are from Vikingr, Im waiting for their permission still. I edited the battle sound so that you can hear muskets in there aswell. Sounds cool if you ask me.

 

[Leberecht Reinhold]

Using a wall in a normal village seems overkill.

BTW, the musket firing sound... I was playing and the sound of musket is good, but the bullet sound is too much. Sounds a too much like a blaster.

Other than that, great work.

PD. Lol leveling 

 

[Temuzu]

Bullet sound? You mean when the bullets pass by? Yeah, those are from Native, I need to find better sounds for those.

Btw, Smolensk is not a village, its a town

 

[Temuzu]

Testing this pack, we'll see if its worth adding. Will post screens soon.

 

[Lueii]

Nice!  Finnally someone working on improving it instead of whining and doing nothing but.

 

[Temuzu]

Thanks

I implented Papa Lazarous's animations. Some stuff needs some work, but overall its great. Here, take a look.

Papa's animations are now completedly implented, and Im aiming to release the next version sometime this weekend!

 

[acrob14]

Ahh, I've been waiting to see what you were working on Temuzu. This looks great, an excellent way to polish up what are admittedly the most lacklustre aspects of WFaS

 

[Temuzu]

Thanks for the compliment

Found something called "Cries of War", which has some awesome sounds in it. Ill be removing Heavy Hooves, and replacing it with the horse sounds from this mod. They sound much heavier and intimidating, and dying horses sound like theyre actually suffering, which sound awful and sad during a cavarly charge

 

[Temuzu]

Doing a bit more scening, Im replacing two of the quick battle maps with relatively big, flat-ish maps, mostly for testing purposes, but I will leave them in. Screenshot propably soon.

 

[Temuzu]

Alright, Smolenks and its Siege scene are done! Screenshots:

Im hoping to release the new patch today or tomorrow.

 

[Goutlard]

Exellent...
I'm impatient of the next version ! (sorry for bad english guys )

 

[Temuzu]

New version coming up, need to upload a small video about it on Youtube first.

EDIT. Uploading the video... Once thats done, I will release the new patch.

Changelog:

Added new sounds for horses, maces, unsheating weapons and new audio for the battles you see on the campaign map. Credits go to Eisenhouwer for his excellent Cries of War pack!
Completetly new melee animations from Papa Lazarous's Combat Animation Enhancement!
New menu song by Turisas (Placeholder, suggest a better one)! Special thanks to Somebody and Swyter for helping me out with this!
Smolensk has been made into a real town! I have personally remade the centre of Smolensk, aswell as the siege scene. Still needs some work (I think the alley scene has to be replaced).

I think thats it.
