;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; The Sounds database - Very much a work in progress;; The file format is pretty much ripped wholesale from shogun;; event { name } {3d/1d} {streamed} { probability } { volume }; { minDist } { maxDist } { minPitch } { maxPitch }; { looped } {randomdelay} { probradius } { pan }; { pref sfx|speech|music }; folder { base path }; {sample name} modifiers (any of probability, volume etc); {sample name} ...; end;; The streamed keyword means that the sample will be streamed from disk insteadof loaded at initialisation time; Volume is a modifier to the base volume set in the preferences (between -100db & 0db); Pan is -100.0db to 100.0db ( N.B. Pan is currently ignored as either asound is played in 3D or 1D); minDist must be greater than 1.0f; retrigger delay in seconds before retriggering the sound (used currently in music code)

; looped will overwrite the parameter in play_tracked_sound;; DEFAULT: sets some default values for all the following sound events; parameters are as per the event keyword (i.e. minDist, volume etc);; Artem (20/1/03): there is a limitation in the current version of the parser,; which does not allow to have an event definition after a bank definition!; Individual events must be listed after a DEFAULT clause or at the begining of; the file.;; Artem (30/07/2003):; New event parameter 'randomdelay' is the delay in seconds; before 3D sounds start playing.

;; Artem (11/11/2003):; probradius - distance to camera inside which the probability is set to 1.0;; pan - 2D events only, from 0 (hard-left) to 1.0 (hard-right) 0.5 - default;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
