Sound/music issues + BONUS! map layout visualisation by me.
« on: September 23, 2012, 02:30 »
Today i want  to complain about two more issues: music being too quite and alien shrieks being too loud.
1) AliensRL is a very rare example of just right music/ambient themes. It really adds to the atmosphere of the game as a whole and to the atmosphere of each tower separately. But i wish there was a separate music volume slider so i could make it just a little bit louder, fine tune it. Actually it's current volume is just about right, one may just increase speakers/headphones volume if it wasn't for the next issue...
2) Aliens pain sounds are way too loud! I wonder if anyone else has that issue but my apain1 and apain2 sounds are louder than other game sounds. My (not so perfect) solution is to turn down high frequencies (8K-16K) in system equalizer, which of course has some undesirable effect on other sounds and music.

And now for a humble bonus. Since we have no wiki yet, i'm posting it here:

Yep aliens scream is too loud in some cases but I think that it was specially made to fright a player. As for bonus - I can see nothing.

Works fine now. And the layout haven't changed since the very first release of Aliens 7 days roguelike ;) .

Just check it out:

I really have little problems with the volume of the music, but I can see how two seperate sliders would be useful. I really like the loud alien shrieks; sound so joyful to me! That chart is awesome by the way. The Wiki is a-coming. I was blessed by our holy God Hand and instructed to build a Wiki... I have to admit that it's easier to create than an ark.
