SnakeWildlife Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 (edited) Big Box is wonderful to start, but the "Initializing big box" sound (as lovely as it is) gets old when overplayed. Any SINGLE sound actually gets quite repetetive. Can i randomize the Big Box startup greeting sound? I have so many ideas for a StartUp sound_list but i cant seem to find any information of how to randomize it. "Shall we play a game" WarGames movie quote. "Good Morning" Tekken 3 arcade greeting. "Ghostbuster protonpack initialize sound" Ghostbusters. "Node Activated" Chaos Engine / Soldiers of Fortune "Classic Reels jackpot noise" (heres a sound clip) There is lots of potential there, i hope it's something which is do-able. Changing it is one thing, but randomizing it, heaven. Edited March 18, 2021 by SnakeWildlife Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro808 Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 I do not believe you can randomize the startup sound. You can change it though. In your \Sounds folder you can create a new folder named whatever you want. Then drop a sound file in there and name the file Startup.wav. In BigBox>Options>Sounds set it to the folder you created with the startup sound. It will then use that audio to override the default BigBox one.

SnakeWildlife Posted March 18, 2021 Author Share Posted March 18, 2021 I know i can change it, but would love to randomize it. Definitely a thought for the dev team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro808 Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Likely not something high on the list since most people use randomized startup videos instead of startup sounds. It definitely would be a useful feature to have it randomize. If you want them to consider a feature request all feature requests are done via the “Request a Feature” link found at the top of the forum under Help & Support.

I didn´t know that this was possible In your \Videos folder place a new folder called Startup. Inside it place any video you want to play. Naming of the video file does not matter. BB will then use a random one at startup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
