Sound addons repository
From The DarkMod Wiki
(Redirected from Sound addon repository)
This article serves as a repository for people looking for custom sound addons for their Fan Missions (FMs). The article lists non-official asset addons that can be classified as sound, ambient and music. They were created by various TDM contributors, including mappers and model-makers.
Though some of the originally unofficial sounds, ambient and music assets eventually found their way into the official releases of TDM, we'll try to only list those sounds, ambients and music assets that aren't an official part of the game's base package.
Consider this article a repository of custom sounds, custom ambience and custom background music.
