I have noticed that Wesnoth's ghouls use Egoboo ghoul sound. And that's not nice, I think. WHY DID WESNOTH DO IT??? Crying or Very sad

Wesnoth didn't steal it from Egoboo. In fact, they both copied it from some open source thingie, and Wesnoth just didn't replace it with a custom sound yet. (As you might notice, the heal-sound is the same as well.) Get over it.

As I just said, no, he didn't make it. In fact, he made rather few sounds for Egoboo; he mainly did the voices (although some of those of the healer and the rogue have once been in Wesnoth as well, so I guess he took those from the source as well).

Wesnoth and Egoboo have been drawing from the same sources for quite some time, actually.
They also share other things in common; for example, they both feature monsters called Chocobones (and I have no idea who thought of it first, as the games are pretty equal in age).

And Wood Elfs... And some other things...

And I'm making a model for treeguy (ent), so we can have them in Egoboo, too! Twisted Evil

I don't see why it's not nice. Confused

All the wesnoth people have to do is follow the lisence for the sounds.

Now? Right at this moment? No, I've been on the computer for too long, and Wesnoth takes a while... my brother will kill me before we can finish a game. Laughing

Can the Hubbin be put into Egoboo like the Mystic? I mean, they're both in Soulfu...And what about a Leprechaun class?
Very Happy

Would be cool if we could find those sources of sound effects Aaron used. Egoboo could use more variated egobooish sounds.

I'm possibly going to have a shot at Wesnoth, but last I checked, the game was about 100MB to download... Neutral
