I Know Where They Got The Resupply Sound

soulpiercer7 · January 2005

<div class="IPBDescription">im so frieken clever</div> The resupply sound when armor or ammo is teleported to a marine was taken from a TV show. To be specific it was taken from Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex. The sound plays when one of the robots detaches from an airplane.

i played both sounds next to one another and they are the same.

not like anybody cares about this discovery but i feel proud of myself now.

This happens a lot. Sounds get re-used all the time in games/movies. Many times people don't want to do their own foley or editing work so they pick from a library. For example I can think of at least 4 other places where the "Healing Wind" spell sound from Dungeon Siege shows up.

watch aqua teen hunger force. There are so many sounds from ns in that show... everything from the doors to the guns.

typical_skeleton · January 2005

yeah, NS doesn't rip stuff off materially, just conceptually. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' />

Thaldarin · January 2005

Like typically skeleton said, they're not the exact same sounds. They're just made to be as close as possible to them, because if Flayra was to 'rip off' those sounds, imagine how much trouble he would be in <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' />

They're the same sounds. Most of the sounds in NS are from a commercially available sound library, if I'm not mistaken. Blizzard and Production IG are but a small portion of customers who use it.

Anyone spotted the Heavy Armour walking sound in Aliens2 ?? <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' />

MrGunner · January 2005

The sad thing is when you hear a sound in a movie and the first thing you think of is what game you heard the sound in. Drives me crazy.

ModChaosControl · January 2005

Same thing, In other words.

IBT · January 2005

yeah, finding a reused sound isnt something major, some protoss sounds can be used in, never ending story (i was bored before school) and some gorge sounds were from Atomic well (i may have the name wrong, but that game was good, in a sense.)

RobB · January 2005

most parts of the main menu are menusounds from P.O.D.: Planet of Death (early 90's, Sci-Fi Racing Game on the Moon Io for the last seat on the evac ship).

<i>That</i> would really surprise me. The current HA sound was done by MaXX.

i hear this one door opening sound in movies all the time that is from doom 1. it always surprises me that they are using a sound that old in new movies.

Skydancer · January 2005

I spot a lot of hl sounds on the tv... mainly from technological stuff.

Scythe · January 2005

What really irks me is that a lot of movies use the SAME GODDAMNED EXPLOSION SOUND!

I kid you not, almost every explosion in any arnie movie sounds exactly the same.

Yeah... and the police radio. You know that one woman's voice who's chattering nonsensical babble? I hear that all the time >_> <_<

Fieari · January 2005

You guys have heard of the "Wilhelm Scream", right? That's a sound effect going back to the 50s, possibly earlier. Apparently, the guys who do movie sound effects treat it like a running gag, working it into every movie imaginable, and they score points amongst each other as to how often or how subtly they can slip the effect in.

The Wilhelm scream was originally labeled "Man being eaten by an alligator"

Google it.

radforChrist · January 2005

Ahhh... he beat me to it. I look for that scream in EVERY movie I watch. And when my wife and I notice it, we laugh....

I was first introduced to the expansive history and use of this scream through NPR: interview <a href='http://www.onthemedia.org/transcripts/transcripts_020901_wilhelm.html' target='_blank'>here</a>.

With that said, I've heard some NS sounds in movies, commercials, etc. But as said before, it's a commercially available soundpack.

SmoodCroozn · January 2005

1.04 OC firing sound was the exact sound that the ultralisk makes when he dies in SC.

AvengerX · January 2005

well of course things are gonna make the same sounds sometimes, I mean how many diffrent ways is there to make a sound for a door opening, or nanites repairing human flesh? but it is fun to see the same files in diffrent places.

ubermensch · January 2005

One of the marine death sounds is also in the sega genesis/super nintendo bevis and butt-head game, played when you kill a bad character.

Raza. · January 2005

You know this sound thats used in the game "Outcast"? Think it was a jump or falling sound. It's used in every kind of movies.

You got it. It's called "The General 6000", and is used in far too many productions. We'll be getting away from it in the future.

X_Stickman · January 2005

I could have sworn i heard the "Commander drops weapon" (is that a different sound to meds / ammo?) sound in that cartoon "Codename: Kids Next Door". In the episode with Count Spankula, one of the times he does the teleport thing.

...

What?

Renegade. · January 2005

Skulk chuckle sound is the same sound one of the creators makes if you click on it numerous times in one of the "lava" maps in Starcraft.

I've also heard the Commander "drop" sound on numerous tv shows, inlcuding a Much Music commercial.
