Currently I have a 3D artist hard at work on the art, a musician, and I'm the lead coder so basically we're left with that one element that really needs to be addressed soon...the sound effects.

I've seen lots of game mods that featured impressive collections of audio, which would be quite suitable use in a full game. I'm not sure where they get the source audio, and how they modify it to create distinct sound effects.

Take for example Ballistic Weapons for UT2004. It has sound effect easily worthy of a commercial release. But when I browse the free sound clip websites I mostly hear junk. Where do these people get this stuff?
