Title: Love the pirate language, how about some others?
Post by: bizzybody on September 23, 2010, 08:26:51 AM
I switched all my PCs running Avast over to Pirate. :) Might get boring after a while, so how about some other dialects?

I bet some folks in countries where English isn't their primary language might like a bit of fun with non-standard dialects of their primary language(s) too.

Someone created a robot sound theme once. Would not surprise me if you can still download it somewhere.

I'd love to have a voice of SHODAN for my avast!.

There is even a sound sample available:

Fans of System Shock 2 game will know what i'm talking about. ;D

How about a cross promotion with Valve Corporation for Portal 2 and have Ellen McLain do a set of GLaDOS lines for Avast? In the same theme, since Gearbox bought the IP for Duke Nukem from 3D Realms and will *gasp* actually, truly for real release Duke Nukem Forever, (the first playable demos ever of DNF were at PAX 2010) a set of Duke Nukem lines would have ol Duke saying "I'm here to kick virus and chew gum, and I'm all out of gum!".

Glad to help Eddy.
Maybe it's time for you to compose another avast! theme song using some of the new sounds
used in avast!5 and from the Pirate version. ???  ;D
I'd love to add it to the last one you composed.  ;)

I hate to grave dig a old post but I look around and don't see much options for sound themes.   So I made one of my own with the help of  friend.  Rina Chan.   http://www.mediafire.com/?uy9l1rukk1giw (http://www.mediafire.com/?uy9l1rukk1giw)   If anyone can give me feedback on this it would be great :)  I'm a noob mixer.   I wanted something like the new sounds but a voice that was less creepy.   So ya. Oh ya and if someone could help me with a better way of sharing these i would appreciate it.

I downloaded the California theme, but when I try to install it AIS does a program update every time.

There's definitely a bug in 6.0.1000!

ya event there, there isn't much to choose from.  I'm surprised there isn't some site with tons of poeples themes.

Send me a zip file containing your sounds and I'd be happy to host them on MySharedFiles (http://mysharedfiles.no-ip.org/)
I already host the ones that Sasha put together some years back: http://mysharedfiles.no-ip.org/avast_sounds_by_Sasha.zip[/u]]http://mysharedfiles.no-ip.org/avast_sounds_by_Sasha.zip (http://[u)
The file host you're using takes forever to download anything and requires many redirects.

I was hoping to get some constructive criticism first but alright I'll send ya the zip.

Since the downloads are so cumbersome, I only downloaded the first sound file and thought it was pretty good.
You can email the zip file to me.   I use gmail so you can guess what my email address is. :)

What's the error message?
Executing the file (double clicking) works for me.

He probably has protection mode on...  Unless he means loading a avast sound pack.

as for bob3160.  I'll pm you shorty to get your email.   I've had school for keeping me busy so I've been away.   I found the files have different sound levels so I'll have to fix that first.
