How to use ET sound pack?

[Noxiide]

I downloaded Dom's sound pack and I do not know how to use it. I mean,what do I replace and what do I delete?thanks BTW can you tell me step by step.:)

[Szakalot]

afai recall you need to edit one of the .pak4 files in the qwfolder/base. Dunno which one, any of those could contain the sounds you want to replace. For example zpak_<language>.pk4 contain all the voice chats recorded. Since they added new sounds with new patches, it can be dispersed in any of the 00x.pk4 files, im wondering whether Dom included that info.

Or there is an easier method i dont know of,
in any case i have strong doubt whether you will be able to play on a pure (ranked) server, with such a sound pack.

I tryed to make a soundpack with less "toy gun sounds" a bit more realistic, but couldnt use it on pure cuz of md5 crap ;) (which is also here to avoid the old "hak" such as loud footsteps and altered sounds)

You can only change sounds that are located in the "localisations" folders vsays are in zpak english XXX (number from 000 to 003) but I dunno for hitsounds...

You can play with custom hitsounds, you just have to make sure they are in the pro folder, and not the vanilla folder.

Szakalot was right, you can't change them in vanilla, have to use the default.

here is what I use, it's the old ET Pro hitsounds

and here is where I saved it, and it works fine for me, and I love them, wouldn't change them back for anything.

Pretty sure thats where I put it anyway XD

[Noxiide]

Ok, which one of the pk4 do i delete?I see 0-4, btw do i just put the file in the ETQWpro file or do i have to delete something then put it on?!

[Szakalot]

you dont delete anything, you overwrite the contents within. Deleting at random will most likely prevent the game from running, or strip you of 50% of the sound in game at best.

[Noxiide]

I'm conefuse now, so I just drag the sound file in to my promod file?what do I over write?

[Noxiide]

Someone make a step by step guide please.

[appleseed]

You open (hear extract) the good pk4 with winzip or any other prog like tht, you find the good sound, you replace it by the ET correspondant sound, you put all again in .zip, then you rename in .pk4

It works for me, tho I still dunno in which pk4 are the pro hitsounds...

Peace

[Noxiide]

What? Someone make a video please. =D

[LighT_Sh4v0r]

Sigh, if someone would come over and did it for you you still wouldn't know would you?

[Szakalot]

What? Someone make a video please. =D

open up all of the pk4 files and look for the sounds you are trying to replace. Hitsounds that is, right? Than overwrite those files and pack it up again. It just cant be simpler than that.
Or you could spam dommafia to upload you an already modified .pk4 pack.

ya! do that!

spam dommafia!

dear Nox, it was an off topic funny photoshop with no revelance to your problem.
Your problem has been explained a few times, if you still dont get it, perhaps you ought to take a basic computer management course.

this post is (meta)³-offtopic

oh my

[Szakalot]

ok... i admit.. you won, i cant get more offtopic than that.

[LighT_Sh4v0r]

Hey you 2, stay off my uberpostcount!

[whiteaden]

I think you topped my (meta)³-offtopic with a (meta)^4-off topic there :O

but by this reply I'm on meta^5 offtopic... please don't respond to this post... :mad:

unfortunately not, because now the topic (offtopic) has become 'how much offtopic can you get'.
To get a level above the current offtopic you need to post off the current off topic ; speaking on the primary thread topic would be such a kind of offtopic.
Thus, we cant get above meta^3 offtopic solely by discussing how much offtopic we can get.
You cant get offtopic by replying to my offtopic, you need to off my offtopic to get higher.
Getting offtopic...Its not an exchange of posts, its like creating a new dimension ; a new dimension to the current (or off-current) discussion

[LighT_Sh4v0r]

And would you go offtopic to the current topic, you wouldn't be able to write down to what power you are offtopic, because that'd be on topic...

[whiteaden]

holy shit... I've got a 1v1 matchup against Ashog tomorrow.. bwahahahahahahaha
