I remember in a recent post that someone was in need of a good gun sound effect, and someone recommended half life's gun sound effects. Where would one go to find that? I have already tried recording it via microphone to speaker but got poor quality. Does anybody know how or where you get the sounds? Any help appreciated.

I dont know about the halflife soundeffect but SOUNDDOGS.com has a ton of different gun sounds. They are a pay site but you can download free (lower quality) mp3 versions.

I'm not sure about Half-Life, but I'm pretty sure that most games have a directory on the cd where it has the wavs (or whatever filetype) of the sound effects. That'd mean you'd have to go buy the game, or else borrow it from a friend, unless of course you already have it.

Heliotrope is right. When you install the CD. It creates directories that the game need throughout your hard drive. I don't have a PC but let's see if I can remember where Half-Life puts the sound FX (There are hundreds).

Try going to /Program Files/Half-Life/Sounds or something like that. It's in there somewhere. There are all these folders that it has organized such as weasposn, enemys etc. Good Luck!

Thanks a ton heliotrope and Ryan. These forums are always so helpful. thanks again.

Anytime. If you want me too I can send you the gun sounds from it, just in case you don't have it or something.

That woulod be awesome man, I use to have half life but gave it away with my old comp. so i could really use it. Anytime you get a chance send them to aibruce89@yahoo.com

thanks

While your at it, can you email them to me to?

I don't have Half Life, and I can't find the files on any other of my games.

I could only find 6 sounds, not quite sure why, I'll look through the other directories later, but for now I'll send you both those six.

Thanks again Heliotrope

Thanks a bunch! Those will really come in handy!

Hey Bruce, I found a great website with sounds. He's a member on this site, but I haven't seen him for a long time.

go to his sound bunker. All the files are zipped so you'll need to, well, unzip 'em.
