Old PDA Sounds
No more low growling noises in your ears on constant quest updates.
Brings back PDA quests’ sounds from the Original Trilogy
I made it for myself and just decided to upload
I want S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 to have more things in common with previous games, and PDA sounds is one of them
You’re welcome to check out video demonstrations so you’ll know what to expect
(in these clips Skif’s voice has Mask Effect on because of the Player Voice Modulator Effects mod)
THE CHANGES
1. No more stupid Quest Stage Updated sounds
SFX_HUD_Quest_StageUpdated
– – – replaced with – – –
SILENCE
2. New quests make the PDA go *turoly-teep*
SFX_HUD_MainQuest_Added
SFX_HUD_SideQuest_Added
– – – replaced with – – –
pda_news sound
3. Completion of the quests makes the PDA go *tloop-tirly-beo-poop*
SFX_HUD_MainQuest_Completed
SFX_HUD_SideQuest_Completed
– – – replaced with – – –
pda_objective sound
4. Failing a Stage or a Quest will still sound dramatic
SFX_HUD_Quest_Failed
SFX_HUD_Quest_StageFailed
unchanged, as I can’t remember ever hearing them (and have no clue what to replace them with_)
Modular Versions
Modular versions added as optional files.
One for each of the changes from 1 to 3.
Using these modular versions, you must be especially aware that
Quest Completion also triggers the Stage Updated sound along with the Quest Completed sound.
These 2 sounds play at the same time!
So if you want to hear the Old PDA sound when completing quests, you should also
download the Only Stage Updated sound removal file, otherwise you’ll hear
the Stage Updated sound together with the Old PDA sound
Closing remarks
This version had almost no testing and is in a very early stage. I plan to modify these sounds a bit so that they fit into the soundscape of the new stalker more pleasingly. no ETA for it though
