Maybe some noticed the great tourney updates green´marine made allready.Now we need some sounds for starting the match, or pausing.

All who send in there records of the following sounds we need will have the chance to be "implemented" on the servers. You can use effects like "echo / bassboost" or whatever you want, to let your voice sound cooler. It only has to fit into the nexuiz style.

Sounds we need:

"Prepare to fight!" // "get ready to fight" // ""Prepare to battle!" // "get ready to battle"
"three"
"two"
"one"
"Fight!"
"Timeout!" // "timeout called"

Make every sound as a seperat wave file (fight.wav, suicide.wav etc etc) . Here is my suggestion, if you have to edit your record afterwards (cutting, effects): http://audacity.sourceforge.net/.

When you are ready with your records, please compress it all into one Zip file, and call it as your name (i.e. I would use bundy.zip). Then email it to k-bundy@web.de

Have fun recording and a lot of thanks for your help!

I have a heavy voice so I can give it a try whenever I have time ;). Do you have any recommendations of software to record voice audio and create effects?

I would use, as allready written, Audacity. Link is in the first post. But I dont know any software to mix in the effect while Recording ... maybe someone else can help there out.

why the sound "Suicide" ? When and where should it be played?

and may I propose to have a sound for "Timeout called" instead of just "Timeout" ... or maybe native english speakers can suggest something which is better ;)

Timeout called sounds good.

I just got a mic from the media lab, so I'll do some recordings today.

I'm also Americano.

in IRC, torus was suggesting something other than "Prepare to fight" because it was too much like Mortal Kombat. Perhaps "Commence Battle" or something of that nature?

"Please ready up"

Someone in IRC mentioned that "Get ready for..." was a bit odd considering it's being used when the match starts. They suggested "Battle!" instead.

FINISH THEM!
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again

You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.
