Anyone have a good source for War horn SE? Tried freesound, but can't find anything. Looking for something that sounds real. The war horn would be somewhat similar to the war horn sound in GOT when the Whitewalkers were found.

Thanks.

It would help folks find what you are looking for if you include a link to the sound you are referencing. Not everyone here has watched GOT (or even know what GOT stands for).

I often use zapsplat when I search for sample-based sounds for my project. I searched "horn" on Zapsplat and while there are a lot of car horns that come up, there are also large truck and/or ship horns.
If you're willing to open up an audio editor such as Audacity you could probably layer both these sounds together, apply a little reverb to the overall mix, and then add a slow fade in to make it more like a "blown" type horn.

You could also find something like maybe a tuba or trombone and then pitch the sound down to make it more dramatic.

If you aren't picky about the sound, I'd be happy to design the sound based on the above examples. But last time I designed sounds for someone for free, I spent 2 hours of my time to help them and in the end they decided not to use anything I made for them. I don't really want a repeat of that.

I appreciate the gesture on the last part, but I fear for as you said wasting your time on the work. And it does sound like I do need to edit my own sound. I've searched everywhere on the web, even the paid services and can't seem to find the right horn I'm looking for. Plus, it be hard to describe it.

Only thing I can think of is sharing a clip of said GOT moment of horn blowing.

This could probably be an entire thread, but it’s really interesting how replaying a game several years later can change how you relate to a character. I think Tidus from FFX got such a bad rap. I getchu. Completely different reaction as an adult now.
As you see, I still enjoy writing tutorials. Is there anything specific you want to see? (I know mapping and editing/resource making is usually popular, but those are very broad topics)
Well, I wanted to expand player battlers visually and now have 3 sheets and counting for each of my players party.
1. Regular sheet
2. The character has turned stone sheet.
3. Using potions sheet.

Technically the main hero has 4 since he starts with a wooden sword, and I felt that the battler should reflect that until he gets a metal one.

Right back to the RM game dev grind in about 15 minutes. :LZSexcite:
Days ago I gave someone the sage advice not to steer away from your main project or take up another one to abandon the first. After figuring a way that would save me years of development, I am forced to redo a lot of stuff on my own turf, near to remake half of what I have already made.
Somewhere down the line I must have crossed paths with bad karma.
