Official Materials.txt?
12/12/2007 16:21So i have got a small idea with a official materials.txt soundfile.
Because we have so many maps without snow steps sounds or even dirty or metal textures without steps sounds.
So the idea is that we are trying to make our own materials.txt which will be updated every new months.
Great idea!
Sounds gives the map a great athmospheric boost. To find good files like this sometimes takes tOO much time, unless you know exactly where to search. And most ppl don't have skills enough to make good ones themselves, unless they spend lots and lots of time.
So if they are to be downloaded from a central spot it's a time saver.

13/12/2007 04:18YES that sounds SO GOOD! its much better than changing what texture is "snow" or "metal" or whatever.
13/12/2007 11:20Metal snow? :P
What happened ?
this would be so great! c'mon cmon!!
03/01/2008 05:36it will take a while :)
03/01/2008 10:25ye i'd be glad if u finish it fast, im making a winter themed map, and when i step its just a normal sound, but i want snow stepsound and i dunno how to configure it :(
but i dont get one thing : why should u update it every month?
03/01/2008 16:42when there are new textures without sounds then i would update it ;)
really nice idea!!
but wouldnt it be better to include this into mapcheck process ?
I mean that each mapper submits a list with the textures he wants sounds for together with his map.
then you could release a updated .txt file on each maprelease.. i think that saves time..
27/02/2008 20:27had that idea some time ago... hope it will be realized this time :)
07/03/2008 23:17I hope that the bean walking sound will be removed :/
07/03/2008 23:30No way Flibo! I love that sound, sounds like your walking on some meaty kebabs.

The water sound there is nice but there's some noise behind it that disturbs me :(
05/05/2008 21:54i hate to bump a thread, but is there anything being done about an official .txt file?
05/05/2008 22:39yes but it takes longer then i expected because of exporting end checking of existing textures in the textfile :/
i will try to speed up that project as fast as i can.
06/05/2008 21:08you have to go through every existing map, dont you? sounds like quite a hassle, but much more convenient in the long run for effect. let me know if theres any way i can help.
07/05/2008 15:48yep and then i need to order these textures in to the right sound category.
hf gl :/

At the moment clair and me are working on the materials.txt as fast as we can.
So we decide that it would be a lot faster when the mappers would help us. So if you have a accepted custom or KZmap which are added in the accept forum: drop clair or me a line with the textures from the map and we will add them in the materials.txt
When you drop us a line with the textures you need to descript the texture namens which the following types:
'M' metal
'V' ventillation
'D' dirt
'S' slosh liquid
'T' tile
'G' grate (Concrete is the default)
'W' wood
'P' computer
'Y' glass
'N' snow
'X' grass
Example for a metaltexture:
Typ: | name:
M | metalground
