Source-Footsteps is a small CLI program meant to take footstep samples and bake them into a single audio clip for use with audio effects in third-party programs. Source-Footsteps is inspired by the Source Engine.
This program was also made out of sheer frustration, as I could not find an existing free program that did what I wanted. So, I'm making this project free and open source for anybody who needs this really specific niche.
You can download the prebuilt Windows executable under Releases.
Extract the .zip, place your samples in the footsteps folder, and then run SourceFootGen.exe.
Download the repository as a .zip file and extract it, or clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/Haru3S/Source-Footsteps.gitInstall the required dependencies:
python -m pip install -r requirements.txtBuild the executable using PyInstaller:
python -m PyInstaller --onefile --name SourceFootGen --add-data "tooltips.json;." main.pyThe compiled executable will be located at dist/SourceFootGen.exe.
Create a footsteps folder next to the executable and place your .wav samples inside it.
Tip
The program is unaware of material types, so only provide samples of the material you want to generate.
Tip
.wav files are recommended.
Duration: How long you want the baked track to be.
Tail Length: How much extra track length you want for reverb/delay effects.
Step Interval: How much time there is between each sample.
Inspiration: Source SDK 2013 by Valve Software
