Wilson Mimulus Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 A lot of doom sounds are from sound packs that are purchasable. You’ll probably recognize a lot of the sounds going forward in other media at this point lol 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the sound is from from one of Sound Ideas' libraries so not original neither to Doom or SL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SarahKB7 Koskinen Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 (edited) It's a generic stock whoosh sound used in both SL as the Teleport sound and in Doom as the sound of an imp's fireball. In Doom its called dsfirsht.wav http://felix.softhyena.com/doom_dsfirsht.wav Edited July 14, 2022 by SarahKB7 Koskinen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garnet Psaltery Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 I wonder if SL uses the Wilhelm Scream for something. Maybe for a permaban. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geddy McGettigan Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 The first Highlander movie, there is a battle in a church I believe. I heard the Second Life teleport sound in that scene. I’m not saying it came from the movie, just another place to hear it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bree Giffen Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 I wonder where that teleport sound actually came from. It sounds like someone sliding metal crates across a floor. There is a sound used in the news channels that was also in an old game I used to play. It makes me look up to the television whenever I hear it.

cariboustag Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 I know the exact door opening noise that tons of doors use here, and I hear it ALL over. Games, movies, everything. Same thing with a vase smashing clip, I hear it over and over in tons of media. Custom foley isn't worth the time, apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Making good sound effects from scratch isn't that easy even today and it certainly wasn't back in the days before digital audio equpiment became common and affordable. So everybody and their dog bought their sounds from one of the big suppliers like Sound Ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they really have sound packs for sale then??? (Doom must have been using 8-bit, 11,025 Hz WAV files at the time, I suspect. Anything lower would sound pretty much ridiculous.) Or did you, @bigmoe Whitfield, mean Doom 2016, the remake? I'm pretty sure the good people at id had enough budget and resources to make their own. Likely, the similarity is just coincidental.

Special effects sounds have been available for just about as long as there have been movies and television. They are certainly not new to digital media (though they've since been converted to it). The SL teleport sound could be older than me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
