<div class="IPBDescription">DOO DEEE</div>You're playing marines or whatever and you hear that lovely, perfect, amazingly pleasant should be text message sound. You know the one. Do Deeeee! I cannot seem to find this audio file because the file is not found within the obvious audio files in the ns2 directory.

I suppose it is tucked some where in that audio folder where the Russian Federal Security Service files are...

Not sure if this question has already been addressed in a previous post...the search function on this forum is rather...interesting.

Anyways does anyone have any thoughts on how to acquire this amazing sound?? I google'd it and found that 'about' article on how to extract .fsb files and it wasn't much help.

I also dont show these sound effects listed on this site either....

Thanks in advance

    IIRC, that sound is played on Docking. I would try looking in that particular map's folder. (This is just a guess)

    This is known as the NS1 tooltip sound.

    It is located in one of these files:

    Sound/ambient*.fsb

    The actual sound is called AI_voice_1 and should be located in the docking subdirectory in the FSB package. You can use a program like FSBext to extract the files. Here is a quick tutorial on how it's done with the Bioshock audio files: <a href="http://bioshockfiles.home.bresnan.net/fsbext.pdf" target="_blank">http://bioshockfiles.home.bresnan.net/fsbext.pdf</a>

    Here is another tutorial for LoL, either should give you an idea of how to do it in NS2. <a href="http://na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=102831" target="_blank">http://na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=102831</a>
