Sound Collision!

Have you been in fights at sea when you're all bunched up and you smash and sink that beat-down corvette with a nice ram... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" /> Very cool but could be extreamly so with some sounds.

a snap for breaking masts and spars, a thud for impact, a groan for prolonged contact, and a massive board-shattering crunch for when it gives way. Smoke and extra debris would also be wicked if workable.

Is this going anywhere?

Not as far as I know... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />

Heh, at first (from the title) it sounded like he wanted a "Sound Collision!" voice bit like you would hear a submarine commander yell.

However, a good solid collision sound would be nice. How would one make the event different from hitting rocks? Its sort of the same event used...

EXACTLY! Bone-crunching sound effects! That's where it's at, baby!!! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/bounce.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":b:" border="0" alt="bounce.gif" />

Turns out there is a sound file for the purpose. We just need to make up a new wav, and replace it =)

Hmmm.... serious destruction grinding, mass wood spintering, and howls of panic... HHmMmmmmmmmmmm....

Any clips from movies that would help?
