He gazed up at the screen. Forty years it had taken him to learn what kind of power was hidden beneath the dulcet tone. O cruel, needless misunderstanding! O stubborn, self-willed exile from the loving sound! Two gin-scented tears trickled down the sides of his nose. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved the boink.

That was beautiful........ brings a tear to my eye. *sniff*

Kane would be pleased.

But Boink is awesome! Stop hunting this innocent creature, created from love! How would you feel, if you or your children, or your children's children become prey? Think about the BOINK, for Kane's sake!!!

For those who dislike the Boink, what kill sound would be a possible alternative selection (as in option to change)?

Id rather those get added in a mod, like the original Renegade has, so they actually emulate the original UT.

I wouldn't say I "hate" the kill sound, but it can be distracting. Having the OPTION to disable it would certainty be nice. And for those that want it, it's there. So win win.

Fortunately, I'm confident that will be the case in future. But as stated, other things to focus on for now.

Man you can't change the boink. That's like changing Jesus' name to Steve just because you don't like the sound. I believe they have a word for that kind of behaviour. Heresy!

If you changed the kill sound, it wouldn't be Renegade.

No. Actually, if you dropped any sound file you want into the folder and named that sound file "Correction_3.wav", it WOULD change the boink if it WERE Renegade.

Since it isn't, this is a very valid preference request. You are just being jerks if you strongly oppose it even being added to the options menu.

If anything I quite miss the classic death sounds. I don't know how to describe them but you know the ones they've used in the RTS's as well as Renegade? Mostly on NOD units. I love those sounds. Obviously it's not like the boink which is a notification of a kill. But still I like those soldiers voices. :P

When I figured out how to change the boink I started making my own WAV file boink replacements using plain old Sound Recorder. The one I ended up keeping the longest was me saying "Adios"--just felt good.
