a sound!
 
You know when you play AO and when you beat the game and you watch the credits with the concept art. In the calm music you here this wierd noise that sounds sort of like a fleech makeing that chirping noise. You here that chirping noise more in the AE credits too. What is that? Could it be a fleech or something else. Its kind of a creepy and wierd sound. You can also here it in the beginning when Abe pops his smileing mug on the screen. Listen to the music in the background you here that same sound. I like it I think its a cool sound.:fuzblink:

Kaimana 06-29-2002 06:52 PM

Yes i do recall that sort of chirping sound. Im not sure what it is but it sound cool.:fuzsmile:

Xavier 06-29-2002 06:54 PM

well It's a mix of scrab and paramites so I will say a normal sound of shrykull while he is not screeming

Kaimana 06-29-2002 06:57 PM

that may be correct now that i think of it, it does sound like the sound paramites make.:fuzconf:

paramiteabe 06-29-2002 07:05 PM

But if you listen closely for a while in the AE credits it's sound sort of like a fleech. There is like a little pattern. Its a couple of short chirps followed by a long one. Maybe it could be all three. Could you imagine ME with that noise in the back ground? That would be so cool. I think it is something of the catagory of a low lifeform like a fleech or maybe even a slurg or something we have never even seen before which I hope it is.

Xavier 06-29-2002 07:07 PM

a fleech?
no, I agree Kaimana it's more a paramite

Oddsville 06-29-2002 07:17 PM

Ahhh, yes I remember this sound well and I love it! Personally I don't know what it is, but who cares its awsome! *Plays AO and sits at starting screen for an hour laughing with joy whenever the sound comes up.*:fuzsmile:

Kaimana 06-29-2002 07:20 PM

the sound is rather intersting but like i said before it sound exreamly similar to that of a paramite.:fuzconf:

Xavier 06-29-2002 07:21 PM

I agree with you on this one ill step out of this thread and let anyone else who wants to discust the sound going and do it.

Maybe we are turning crazy lets make up another thread but what?:fuzconf:

Xavier 06-29-2002 07:26 PM

I don't say we sould do an other topic.
I want just that we realise what we are doing. :fuzblink: :D :)

Kaimana 06-29-2002 07:29 PM

oh well in that case :D . but you know what this proves it proves what true fans we are that we would go out of are way to talk about a little sound that we think is interesting. :D :lol: :p

Xavier 06-29-2002 07:34 PM

or we are totaly crazy... personnaly I am :p
back to the topic, ahum, can someone record this sound an post it here... I can't

Kaimana 06-29-2002 07:37 PM

I dont know if i can do that. But is there a web site with this sound in it that people can go to and listen to it?:fuzconf:

Xavier 06-29-2002 07:43 PM

well. I never found something like that.
and you can trust me, I very often browsing on internet

Kaimana 06-29-2002 09:30 PM

Oh well lets hope someone can get the sound here somehow.

paramiteabe 06-30-2002 01:30 AM

The whole reason I put this strange topic in is because I am a little cureous on what it is. I don't really think it would be Shrykull because of the fact that Shrykull is a spirt or a god in which Abe can only become. I don't think there are wild Shrykulls running around Oddworld. And yea it does sound like a Paramite but sometimes it sounds like something totally different to me that is why I said fleech. There are times I think it could be a fleech. heck you never know it could be a meech. Now won't that be something. Sure they maybe extinct but do we know for sure?

Kaimana 06-30-2002 01:35 AM

that maybe a good point after all i dont think anyone knows what a meech sounds like.

kleeng 07-02-2002 06:43 PM

kleeng 07-03-2002 03:01 PM

It schould work this time

sound 1

this sound Sounds like some sort of insect chirping. like a cricet or something.


sound 2

This sounds like a frog to me

Ok i figured out the problem > FORTUNECITY
they wont alow wav down loads.

So i changed the extension to jpg. Now you have to richt klik on it and choos to download it. When you have down loaded it you change the extension back to wav and then you can listen to the sounds.

Damn fortune city :fuzmad: :fuzmad: :fuzmad:


PS if you dont see extensions on your pc you can go to

extra> folder options (or something like that) > the middle tab leaf that sais something in the area of diplay type> decross the box that sais hide extensons for known file types. Then you see the extensions of your files and you can change them

Xavier 07-03-2002 03:13 PM

it still don't work...
put them in a zip file and attach him to a post in this forum

One, Two, Middlesboogie 07-03-2002 03:23 PM

They don't work because they have .jpg extensions, and that file extension is for images. Sound files need to have either a .wav or a .mp3 extension.

kleeng 07-03-2002 03:30 PM

I know other wise fortune city wont let you load them

Xavier 07-03-2002 03:38 PM

I downloaded the files as .jpeg
I tried .wav and .mp3 but it doesn't work.
What I am supposed to do ?

One, Two, Middlesboogie 07-03-2002 03:40 PM

Kleeng; as Xavier said, you could put the .wavs in a .zip file and post it as an attachment. Or you could send them to me (acherontan_annarchy@yahoo.co.uk) and I'll host them on my webspace.

kleeng 07-03-2002 03:54 PM

Fortune city wont let me do zip either.
:fuzmad:

Yay after a lot of fortune city problems the zip finaly works
(had to try 3 times befour it worked)

Sorry fortune city killed it agean

im gona send it to middles boogy

Xavier 07-03-2002 04:09 PM

kleeng.
you can upload files on this forum
just use the option "attach file" when you write a message
