Hi all just sent this to Spookie
I have just finished putting this sheet together it contains a completed review
of all sound files (original and the sound mods I put out a while ago
the sheet contains a listing of all sound SFX file and my interpretation
of what they represent in the game (I could be wrong)
The sheet can be used just as reference or for the purpose I put it together

how to use
1 naturally you have to have Exell installed (the one I use very old 1997 version)
2.It contains Hyperlinks to all sound files so you can review them from a single source
3 To get the Hyperlinks to work you need to create in C:\program files
several dirs.
4. Dir structure
A C:\Program Files\Witp-sounds
B C:\Program Files\Witp-sounds\44k originals
C C:\Program Files\Witp-sounds\1015 samples

I had to do it this way to get around all the differant drive configs that are out there

5.From your Backup dir of original sound files (I assume you have one)
(if you download Mr Frags 44k resamples use that set I have)
copy them into the 44k originals dir
6 Download from Spookie all my sound mods (if you havn't already)
and unzip to the WITP-Sounds Dir
7 Because you can only have one file of the same name in the witp-sound dir
I have created a sub dir structure for all the 1015 files and within this download there is a zip file called
1015 samples.zip unzip this into the 1015 samples dir
Note to save having to upload the same files again the dir's will be empty just download
the 1015 file that you want and place in correct dir.

8 when that is completed (sound a lot but will not take long to do)
load the sheet up and in the col titled SOUND LINK ORIGINALS
when you click on the link the sound will play through Media Player
the are the original sounds from game
when you click on links in col titled MOD LINK you will hear my mods
for comparison (the sheet was not may for this purpose just a by product)

The sheet is actually a control sheet for sound modders to see what has been done, what can be done
and what sound to look for and create new SFX files

I hope this will be of some help to others I dont think this has been done yet
If you need assist PM me or see Thread
Cobra Aus 12/06/2005 version 1

Thanks Bodhi. Would you happen to know if/where I can get the sound mods that CobraAus put out? If using all the sound mods gets rid of the annoying hammer-on-plywood flak then I'll just use all the new sounds.

A question - if I substitute a significantly longer (time-wise) .mp3 file, will the game be delayed by that much time? I found an excellent flak sound effect on the web but it's many times longer than the one WiTP provides.

The flak sound can be found here:
http://www.sounddogs.com/results.asp?Type=&CategoryID=1040&SubcategoryID=11

(It's the "Tank - Flak vierling against aircraft" effect near the bottom of the roster).

I found them but apparently there are no new files for 1191-1193, at least I didn't find them after downloading volumes 1-14 and unzipping them.

Apparently the activity will trigger which sound is to play, but the soundclip itself does not lengthen the game, it just continues playing into the next activity.(It does not seem to interfere with anything.

EDIT, I found the sound files in question, they're 1191-1193. I'll probably replace them with one of the other sound files that are included, at least for the time being.
