Subject: RE: SBLive crashes (OT) Sound Problems in general


Oh yes.. Virtually every mob has a movement and idle sound of some sort.
The sounds effects in EQ are the best of any game I've every played. That's
the one thing that I have *never* seen a complaint about in any forum.
There aren't any sounds that I can think of in the game that sound "wrong".
The next time you play, pay attention to some of the sounds and try to
imagine how they came up with them. Ambient sounds, beetles, spiders
walking, snakes hissing, frogloks (splicka, splicka, splicka), Aviaks,
lizards in CT, giants, Spectres, Ghouls... The sounds effects in EQ are a
work of art that surpass the graphics by a healthy margin imo.

FYI: I'm using Soundblaster Live!
