Movies

[RideTheCrash]

My version of TDR never played any intro or ending movie, but I have read about them. A number of pages back some mentions they are in the "Data" folder, but I don't seem to have such a folder. Help?

[TTR]

The data folder you are talking about im guessing that was for carmageddon 1 or 2, in TDR theres the assets folder.

As far as i can see the map doesnt contain any movie folders so i cant help you with this..

[Dark Angel]

they are in the movies folder...

[coffeycup]

well no wonder he can't find them, who'd think to look in there?

[autopilot]

If you downloaded the game they arent gonna be there, or they'll just be blank 0kb movies, usually with game rips they arent included to keep the overall file size down.

[Tony]

It would be fun to see 0kb files in the movie folder in a downloaded version, as they don't even need to be there

Would be easier to just delete them rather than replacing with 0kb files!

[RideTheCrash]

Okay, I had a feeling that is why. Because I don't have any music either in the background...which is fine by me. And I have no Movies folder. I can't find the game around where I live, so it is downloaded.

[Tony]

If you lack of music, you don't miss anything anyway. The music is the game's weakest point, in my opinion. Worst is the background music when at the menu. Gah!

[RideTheCrash]

Yeah I've only really read bad things about the music in the game.

[ApeX__]

Worst is the background music when at the menu. Gah!

a while back i released a mod that changed the Menu music, but either the file was really

big and it was taken down, or it just got lost... if needed i could re-install TDR and see if i cant

find out how to mod it again (really simple, just needing to find the correct filename)

[Dark Angel]

or just use the cd crack and play your own cd, or just play mp3s in the bg...

[Tony]

But what about the repeating sounds in the menus which goes on in the background?

Am I right if I say they could be turned off, by editing the sounds.pak? I've never tried it yet, but think I read someone wanting to or actually did it. Silenced it, that is.

[random_monkey]

You can silence them in the sound options can't you?

I seem to recall doing that on my old install... unless I just silenced all sounds in one go, rather than just the menu sounds

[Tony]

Hm, does it go under "ambient" or something then? Can't remeber how the options look like at this moment. Been a long time.

But if I untick that one, does ambient stuff disappear in-game too, and not just at the menus?

[autopilot]

Do you mean just the general odd noises and the light breathing sound in the menu/garage that plays in loop, is that the sound you're speaking of? I actually kinda like it, makes you feel like you're recuperating in a hyperbaric chamber awaiting to be sent out to war again.

However, the wav file for that is in the sounds folder, I forget what its called, but it shouldnt be too hard to find, as its one of the few over 100kb, you can just replace it with a blank wav file.

[Tony]

Expressed like that I think it would do some good, but in another game. I'll check it out later on then. Thanks.

[RideTheCrash]

Well I happened to stumble across them on the net. I don't get the final video. He gets into the normal world...why does he scream?

[TTR]

Cause it is all too happy, or there were no population anymore? cant remember...

[RideTheCrash]

Well it looked deserted. I mean, I think the point was to escape to where it's "nice". Unless it means that everyone there was gone because they all ended up behind the walls...or something.

[autopilot]

wHo will survive and wHat will become of tHem ? ? ?

[El Barto]

I think he scream because the buildings are false.

If you take a good look of the video, they are painted on a big wall.

[RideTheCrash]

Ah so they are, thanks.
