Here is a list of  245 [[Soundscapes|soundscapes]] for use in Half-Life 2. An easy way of testing them is to use the ''playsoundscape'' console command, which includes limited searching for soundscape names so you shouldn't have to print out a copy of this list for reference.
Here is a list of  245 [[Soundscapes|soundscapes]] for use in Half-Life 2. An easy way of testing them is to use the ''playsoundscape'' console command, which includes limited searching for soundscape names so you shouldn't have to print out a copy of this list for reference.


Soundscapes with 'util' in the name are intended for inclusion in other, full soundscapes. While they should work without problems in-game, they generally aren't nearly as varied or deep as the resulting composites.
Soundscapes with 'util' in the name are intended for inclusion in other, full soundscapes. While they should work without problems in-game, they generally aren't nearly as varied or deep as the resulting composites. Others have positional sounds which will be played at certain locations specified in the [[env_soundscape]] entity's properties. If these locations are not given, the sounds will not be heard.
 
Others have positional sounds which will be played at certain locations specified in the [[env_soundscape]] entity's properties. If these locations are not given, the sounds will not be heard. The list below will in time be upgraded to include descriptions of each soundscape's positional components if present.
 
Soundscapes with positional information are indicated by the prefix [POS]. These soundscapes were tested in a 1024 x 1024 x 1024 closed chamber, with the soundscape at the center, the player near the center and the eight directional markers in a circle with a radius of 512 around the soundscape and player. Marker 0 is at the left of the player (his nine o'clock), at player height; Marker 1 at a left 45 degree angle; Marker 2 dead ahead (12 o'clock); Marker 4 to the right of the player (three o'clock), and so on around the circle. After testing from the center, the player is walked in a circle through the markers to detect local sounds.

Revision as of 08:24, 29 March 2018

Template:Otherlang2

Here is a list of 245 soundscapes for use in Half-Life 2. An easy way of testing them is to use the playsoundscape console command, which includes limited searching for soundscape names so you shouldn't have to print out a copy of this list for reference.

Soundscapes with 'util' in the name are intended for inclusion in other, full soundscapes. While they should work without problems in-game, they generally aren't nearly as varied or deep as the resulting composites. Others have positional sounds which will be played at certain locations specified in the env_soundscape entity's properties. If these locations are not given, the sounds will not be heard.
