Help With Sound?

Just thought of a possible (maybe) way of doing this, though it'd probably be best for cutscenes, preferably without any ambience noises.

The way it would work would be to stuffcmd like mad, manually adjusting the main sound volume down to nothing, setting to whatever new sound you want, then stuffcmd like mad once again back up to whatever the main sound level was set at originally.

Obviously this would probably only work in SP though. *shrugs*

I think it was bloodmage that had some funky QC sound echoing

*If* I ever get the Quake source compiled, I was planning to do some simple engine-based sound stuff. Nothing overly fancy, just surround-sound support and distance pitch-reduction.

Still, audio does seem to be a bit neglected by the mighty engine-coders...

Maybe someone should try and find out how Half-Life's sound engine works. It has supported dynamic pitch, convincing underwater, caves and other weird distort effects from the beginning, even in software.
