Compiling:Surface sounds

Surface sounds are sounds which can be added to the items in your map.

In order to add surface sounds you'll need a utility called bsp-redone -

For linux You can download it here: [bsp-redone for Linux]

First of all you'll need to create a basic surfaces file, to do this run bsp-redone with the following

bsp-redone -se bsp_file [surface_file]
for example
bsp-redone -se YOURMAPNAME.bsp YOURMAPNAME.surfaces

This will create a file containing something like ..

textures/YOURMAPNAME/structure/dirtybrickstain = none
textures/YOURMAPNAME/structure/dirtybrick = none
textures/YOURMAPNAME/decals/cokeycola = none
textures/YOURMAPNAME/decals/downwith = none
textures/YOURMAPNAME/grass/grass2 = none

You should edit this file and change all of the none values to be one of the following...

none
tin
aluminum
iron
titanium
steel
copper
brass
cement
rock
gravel
pavement
brick
clay
grass
dirt
mud
snow
ice
sand
ceramictile
linoleum
rug
plaster
plastic
cardboard
hardwood

plank

Please note: Not all surfaces sounds have a unique sound, most of the metal sounds share the same sound.
