While I was looking for sounds for the hi-res Doom sound pack, I stumbeled upon quite a few Duke Nukem 3D sounds. I've "only" found 55 sounds, so it's far from a complete pack. Still though; it's fun to listen to better versions of these classic sounds, like "mice3", "glass" and of course "squish" :-P

Here's the pack:

If you plan on using them in a mod or something, remeber where you got them ;-)


"fscrm10", "predpn" and "bos1rm" are from a vintage sound archive so they simply don't sound any better.

"octarm" is slowed down from 44kHz to 21kHz to make it sound right, so you loose a lot of the sound quality, and the original source for "scuba" is underwater bubbles, so there is no high frequencies.

"pigrg" which is indeed also used on the ogre in Quake, is also slowed down quite a bit, so some quality is lost. It seems to be a little time-stretched too, I'll modify it for a update.

"preddy" is a slowed down version of the extreme death scream in Doom.

The "waramb"-sounds and "wpnsel21" are also from an old sound archive (the same source as for the BFG fireball), but got better with some filtering.

Most of the sounds are from the Sound Ideas libraries, but the episode 2/3 boss sounds are taken from the t-rex in Jurassic Park.

I've found a few more Duke3D sounds and tweaked some of the PSX sounds, so there will be a update for this pack. The PSX Duke quotes sounds a bit better than the PC version, but they're still difficult to improve any further. A few of the quotes are reused in Duke Nukem Forever, but while it is Jon St. John, they don't sound exactly the same...
