Naming convention for registered textual names
----------------------------------------------
@ -118,6 +120,58 @@ Mods should generally prefix their textures with modname_, eg. given
the mod name "foomod", a texture could be called
"foomod_foothing.png"
Textures are referred to by their complete name, or alternatively by
stripping out the file extension:
eg. foomod_foothing.png
eg. foomod_foothing
Sounds
-------
Only OGG files are supported.
For positional playing of sounds, only single-channel (mono) files are
supported. Otherwise OpenAL will play them non-positionally.
Mods should generally prefix their sounds with modname_, eg. given
the mod name "foomod", a sound could be called
"foomod_foosound.ogg"
Sounds are referred to by their name with a dot, a single digit and the
file extension stripped out. When a sound is played, the actual sound file
is chosen randomly from the matching sounds.
When playing the sound "foomod_foosound", the sound is chosen randomly
from the available ones of the following files:
foomod_foosound.ogg
foomod_foosound.0.ogg
foomod_foosound.1.ogg
...
foomod_foosound.9.ogg
