BBHood217:
It annoys me that nightmare enemies are completely silent, because it allows them to sneak up on you.  I wanna change their sounds, as well as those of the elite former humans and agony elemental, into sounds from PSX Doom/Doom 64 so I gotta ask: What are their internal names as printed in the .lua files?

In the first place, the no-sound of nightmare enemies is a part of why they are considered nightmare. Assigning sounds to these enemies would significantly decrease their deadliness, so if you assign sounds to them and later post your victory mortems here, it would be only fair to admit this fact in those victory posts.

The enemies' internal names are not mentioned in the .lua files, but they are mentioned in the monster definitions in the source code. They are as follows:

--- Code: ---"nimp"
"ncacodemon"
"ndemon"
"narachno"
"narch"
"eformer"
"esergeant"
"ecaptain"
"ecommando"
--- End code ---

Note that I didn't actually try to assign sounds to them - they may have sounds blocked deeper in the code, overriding whatever sounds you may want to assign to them. You'll have to test this yourself.

Tormuse:
I seem to recall seeing a DRL Let's Play video a while back in which the Lava Elemental and Shambler made roaming and pain sounds.  I don't know if that included Nightmare creatures, but I'm guessing it's possible.

ZicherCZ:
Now that I think of it, there is a pretty quick way to test the sounds - just assign custom sounds to a nightmare demon, start a N! AoOC game and dive for the Unholy Cathedral. Nightmare demons are guaranteed there.

Too bad I only have a fresh DRL installation (no achievements whatsoever, no challenges unlocked), so I cannot try this myself ...

khiijol:
i think unholy cathedral on N! is just regular demons?
