How to change the pitch of a sound?

[Get Phobo]

I would like to make higher-pitched versions of some vanilla sounds for my WIP Doom Offspring mod using code, if possible.

How do I do this? Is it possible at all? I want to set a fixed pitch value, not specify a randomization range (I know how to do that).

Like, Mr. Baron has a son, and his son's voice has twice the pitch, so it sounds a lot higher.

Using $pitchshiftrange <range> , then declaring the higher-pitched sound, then inserting $pitchshiftrange <range> again with a normal pitch value for all the sounds after that should do the trick in theory :]

Okay, but this sets a range for random alteration, which is exactly what I do not want. I just want to set a fixed pitch for a specific sound, like 2.0 to make it twice the normal pitch.

The idea was to use a range that leaves no room for variation like 2.0 - 2.0. However, I never used ranged in zDoom so I'm noz sure how to delcare them.

Well, I will try that and see what it gives. Thanks.

It doesn't seem to work. I've tried this code in SNDINFO.txt:

Code: Select all

$pitchshiftrange  7
yknight/sight dskntsit
yknight/active dsdmnact
yknight/pain dsdmnpn
yknight/death dskntdth
$pitchshift yknight/sight 7
$pitchshift yknight/active 7
$pitchshift yknight/pain 7
$pitchshift yknight/death 7
$pitchshiftrange 0

Setting randomized pitches to either on or off will override any definitions, it seems.
