ESOC AOE3 Taunt Package

ESOC AOE3 Taunt Package

VOLUME LEVELS NOW ADJUSTED PLUS BONUS TAUNTS THANKS TO EAGLEMUT

Download the revised_taunts_v2.rar file.

The volume adjusted taunts still work with people who don't have the volume adjusted ones so don't worry about upgrading!

IF YOU WERE ONE OF THE MANY PEOPLE WHO DOWNLOADED THE ORIGINAL TAUNT PACK MAKE SURE YOU EITHER DELETE THE OLD ONES FIRST OR OVERWRITE THEM (numbers 34-70). DON'T HAVE TWO TAUNTS OF THE SAME NUMBER!


EAGLEMUT wrote:Alright, I'm going to finally release this.

I have gone through every single taunt and adjusted them individually, to the best of my abilities, to be as clear and loud as possible without any noticeable loss in sound quality. Only exceptions are 40 & 48, which already seemed fine and are unchanged. Aside from just amplifying the whole audio tracks, I have also rebalanced the sound on some tracks which had portions of very differing sound levels (notably 44) and removed background noise on some tracks (notably 36).

But that's not all! I have also made another 16 taunts of my own, bringing the total number of taunts to 86. Hope you'll like these as well! Thanks to @pecelot for some good suggestions.

To install the revised taunts, simply put them in the same folder and overwrite the old ones. As mentioned in the OP, taunts are located in your aoe3 installation directory -> Sound -> Taunts. If you did not yet download the original pack from WickedCossack, you don't need it for this one to work.

Enjoy!



Hi everyone I spent some time making an taunt pack featuring some of Aoe3's famous faces including ZutaZuta, Interjection, RyanMankle, Aizamk and a few other special cameos !

This adds taunts 34 through to 70 (now 86) to your game.




PLEASE ENJOY AND TAUNT RESPONSIBLY

Is there a list of all taunts?

They are very good but some are much louder than others, meaning some you can hardly hear and others are super loud.

Yeah, imo these are a bit out of line:
38 - too loud
47 - not loud enough
48 - too loud
50 - not loud enough
57 - not loud enough
60 - not loud enough
67 - not loud enough
70 - not loud enough

I might work on the sound levels another time but for now I ran out of energy. They should be all audible provided everyone's not spamming the 30 other taunts in the chat.

I was using the taunts in a lobby with people who didn't have them and the game went OOS almost directly after start twice in a row, I removed them and we could play :/

I'm having way too much fun with this. Thanks for taking the time to put it all together! Nice choices on the sound bites.

Thats strange, I have not had any issues with non taunters. Anyone have any idea why this might be? Bizarre coincidence?

Where they treaty fan patchers btw?

If anyone experiences anything similar please post here.

Yeah was a game hosted on the treaty fp, but once I took the taunts out we could play :/
Would be sad if the package caused OOS cause some taunts are so funny

Does the treaty FP alter the sound folder in anyway?

It really shouldn't cause an issue as this just places extra taunts in the taunts folder. :hmm: Nothing complicated.

I'll try to fix them myself and propose some additions ;)
