Wwise/Audio Focus - Gimme bug reports

[Tatsur0]

Hey guys, with the help from Jonnyboy we are able to fix quite a few bugs and some of those are audio bugs! We would appreciate any reports on audio placed here so I can tackle them asap.

Thank you for the warm welcome for our new programmer. He is amazing and we are over the moon!

Audio - Current List

• Melee Impact Volumes seem off
  
• Empty Reload animation for MP5K plays wrong sounds on top of proper sounds. The bolt-back from MP5K's Unload plays on top of the bolt-back for MP5K's Empty Reload and the bolt-forward sound for AR-15's Empty Reload animation plays on top of MP5K's bolt-forward sound for Empty Reload.
  
• Rerecord all DLC Character lines making sure to get them all this time (Still being budgeted for)
  
• Guitar melee sounds (draw, holster, swing, hit & hit world) need to be created
  
• Banjo audio too quiet compared to other Melee

Programming - Current List (Audio exists but doesn't seem to be plugged in)

• Unloading sound for Remington is missing.
  
• Garand still plays BLR's Reload/Unload sounds.
  
• Zombie Audio not playing in Splitscreen 2nd player
  
• Crossbow w/ Attachment Reload not playing audio

In Progress

All of the above

Fixed WWise issues:

• Crossbow, CompBow, GasMask, GlowStick, M1Garand, MedKit, Remmington870, and SCAR don't have proper collision on drop
  
• Missing Ladder Footstep events created and added
  
• One more thing regarding new silenced gunshots: you can hear them in a distance and they distort your audio quite a lot when someone is shooting (easily noticeable when you're firing a AR15 or AK and someone shoots with silenced Sig or 1911 from a distance).
  
• Unloading sound for Remington is missing.
  
• Crossbow, CompBow, GasMask, IED, Phone, and SCAR Melee Impact sounds aren't playing.
  
• Missing Weapon Audio for 2nd player when running splitscreen
  
• You can spam Medkit and Inoculator healing sound (basically you can't cancel the sound)
  
• Missing ReloadEmpty for MP5k
  
• Missing ReloadEmpty for SCAR
  
• Missing ReloadEmpty for SIG
  
• Missing ReloadEmpty for M1911
  
• Missing ReloadEmpty for AR15
  
• Missing ReloadEmpty for AK74
  
• Missing Single Round Reload for OverUnder
  
• Create Crossbow with Attachment Reload Audio
  
• Fix missing Shell Insert for OverUnder
  
• Fix CompoundBow Reload (Odd ending audio and not synced)
  
• Fix BLR ReloadEmpty and Syncing
  
• Fix Crossbow Reload (Wrong and not synced)
  
• Missing Item Audio for Inoculator
  
• Missing ReloadEmpty Audio for KG-9
  
• Missing Silenced Audio for AR15
  
• Missing Silenced Audio for M1911
  
• Missing Silenced Audio for MP5K
  
• Missing Silenced Audio for SIG
  
• Missing Silenced Audio for SCAR
  
• SCAR Tail seems to be playing wrong weapon and wrong environment (View switches, events, and Wwise setup and attenuation)
  
• Gasmask filter not working
  
• DLC zombie survivors not using zombie voice set
  
• DLC weapons not having any physics sound
  
• DLC survivors voices not working as intended (and loud noises)
  
• Missing Crossbow reload animation (Look into audio as well)

It'd probably be a good idea to list the issues that have already been fixed or reported, so people don't re-report them again.

After new update crossbow lost reloading animation and m1garand have strange shooting sound (sorry for my english)

[Tatsur0]

That is very odd. We'll look into the Crossbow reload animation. What is wrong with the M1Garand Fire Audio? Last we tested it, it had a satisfying sound but if I can improve it I will. Also your English is great :D

[Reborn]

Whenever new Garand sound is good or not is very subjective. Personally I liked old one, but the new one is okay too. The Remington870 sounds are worse than before the update though. Sounds more like a howitzer than a shotgun.

[Tatsur0]

I'll see what I can do. But to keep parity I used the Mossberg as a base.

Coop local split screen has no sound with almost every gun but the sig. Machete noise seems fine though. Health bar and weapon tab for player one is very small, while the health bar and weapon tabs for player two is normal size. Female makes new sounds but old ones were better, spawning of zombies seemed out of whack when playing in Barlowe square. Also could not obtain weapons as player two in flat line in union station even though money was stacked. This is what I ran into so far. The rain actually looks like rain now though strange

I noticed the reload sound for the machine pistol is missing. I like the new shotgun sound as well as all the new sounds added. It's a little more powerful sounding.

[Reborn]

SCAR's distant gunshot sounds seem to be using wrong sound files (in a distance SCAR currently sounds like if someone was firing the thing in front of you, which is very confusing).

DLC characters still use the "OG" survivors voices. (+ female zombies with DLC character model still using only male zombie voices).

Medkit has no physics sounds (could use nailgun sounds as a placeholder easily).

Ammo/Weapon pickup sounds sometimes don't play, as reported by someone on Discord earlier (could be fixed already, though. Not sure).

[Tatsur0]

Plantlyfe3: That is not good. Will look into split screen asap. The old DLC voice lines were all Marcus for all 4 characters. The only other voice that might have worked in the past would have been Jess or Nicole being used for them. Which voice exactly?

I'll take a look at the SCAR and see if the switch isn't working of if it's calling the wrong event. As for the DLC characters using "OG" voices, I have all of their lines setup to be used but unfortunately I was unaware (Adjusting back stateside and going through some nasty withdrawal from my medication from Japan :P) that only a small portion of the lines were actually recorded and implemented. I do apologize for that. I suspect that the Zombie audio is a simple fix and will run it by Johan. Cheers!

That's most likely the "empty reload" sounds, which haven't been added yet.

[Reborn]

So far I only seen Mia having a correct voice set, from last playtime anyway. (Which was only a sprinting sound grunting, because I had survivor voices disabled).

Also, reminder - zombie roar is getting cut off (never plays the roar sound fully. Applies to both PZs and AI zombies).

When you play local coop you dont have a choice of characters, theres just a male and female, so I cant really be specific on which voice. She used to say that bullet sure looks great in your face, now she says I dont got time for your bullzhit. its sounds ghetto. She sounds like a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ or something. It just really kills that creepy vibe the game used to have

[Tatsur0]

Very odd. I'll run it by Jonny

[Wuffesan]

gonna update the missing events:

• Turret AI has no sounds [Added in 2.1.2.1]
  
• Weapon empty reload
