About this mod
Changes several sound effects with higher quality ones.
- Permissions and credits
- Changelogs
As fans may know, TR2 in any version has really low quality in SFX and this remaster was not an exception. The game currently has PSX quality sound effects and they sound out of place specially with current graphics.
I took the time to manually replace several sounds *NOT ALL* with higher quality versions of the exact same sound effects, however some sounds were also completely changed according to my preferences, mostly Lara's sounds.
Notable changes
Menu sound effects and all guns with high quality *except the Harpoon*
Original roll sfx completely changed to match TR3 because we all know the original rolling effect sounds terrible and almost like a door is opening so its confusing to new players.
Lara's grunts In the original they kept TR1 grunts which belong to Shelley Blond however, my version offers TR3 grunts and jump sounds to match Judith Gibbins since she is the voice of Lara in TR2 and 3.
Additionally, Lara's item pickup AHA is higher quality and the ''No'' sound is once again Judith instead of Shelley for consistency.
I hesitated to change some sounds because i didnt wanna mess with the ''nostalgia'' aspect that some of these carry.
Other changes in 2.0
- Switches have the SFX from TR3
- Water effects when swimming or walking on surfaces have been improved!
- Shotgun SFX improved, more punchy and higher quality.
- Pretty much all Lara's sounds are from TR3 except for the sound when she pulls herself up because of personal preference, i think its nice as it is and blends fine! (its also in higher quality than the original dont worry)
- Flare SFX from TR3 and also the SFX when its burning.
Changes in 3.0
- Fire effect improved, similar to TR3-5
- Couple of sounds from the Xian Warriors improved with a better Attack sound, deeper sound
- 40 fathoms Collapse SFX improved, sounds cleaner and gives the impression a lot of waste is on the ground.
- Explosions improved, this affects the Bomb from Bartolis Hideout and when the grenade launcher collides.
- Dog sounds improved, barking and attacking only
- Bad guys SFX improved, they have clearer grunts and more prominent death sounds!
- Tigers and Snow Leopards improved! Better growls and death sounds!
- Helicopter sound improved, this plays at the start of the Great Wall (Level 1 in TR2) and the Cold War (Level 1 in Golden Mask)
- Water drops on Maria Doria Levels improved, sound clearer!
- Barefoot steps cleaner and improved, this affects levels with the SOLA swimsuit and Home Sweet Home.
5/22/2024 small update ADDED Version with Lara's original SFX by Shelley Blond, edited by me to enhance their quality but just slightly *dont expect miracles, some of these dont exist in high quality lol*
Please watch this video to have a clearer understanding of the changes this mod does *VER. 3.0
Update January 2025
> Improved small sounds, Yeti noise, water currents in Venice and other levels.
> Added version with *Shelley's noises in the same download.
*This version includes Shelley's noises but aren't identical to the ones in the original game, i used many TR1 grunts instead for the best quality possible, the version i made with the OG noises as they are in the '97 release will still be up for download.
Thank you for downloading this mod, Im looking to continue to improve it a little bit more
