(Up to File formats)

The Worms series of games has a notion of "soundbanks", which allows players to customize their worm teams by assigning them a set of sounds (called a "soundbank"), either from a collection included with the game, or creating a custom soundbank from player-specified sound files.

Soundbank sounds and meaning

This is a list of sound files and descriptions used in the 2nd-generation of the 2D series.

The descriptions are taken from the Soundbank Editor (specifically, the names.wdb file). Some of these sounds aren't used (see below), some are used incorrectly. Some of these descriptions are inaccurate or too unspecific.

Filename Description from names.wdb Notes
Boring.wav Phrase used when worm does something boring. Plays when an enemy worm's turn timer hits zero. Also plays for a random team when a game ends in a draw.

Byebye.wav Used when a Worm dies. Plays during the death animation. Same as "Ohdear.wav".
Comeonthen.wav Phrase used to tell you to hurry up! Plays if there is no player input for a few seconds, after initial input. Same as "Hello.wav".
Dragonpunch.wav Punch sound effect. Plays when Fire Punch is used.
Excellent.wav Phrase for an excellent shot. This sound and three others have never worked as intended by Team17, and used to play in near-arbitrary circumstances. These sounds were disabled in 3.6.29.0, since fixing the bug would have changed the gameplay too much by causing the sounds to play too often, often inappropriately.

Fire.wav Worm says, "Fire!" Plays when firing a launchable weapon. Same as "Watchthis.wav".

Some soundbanks include files with misspelled file names (W:A updates have added support for these misspellings):

  • Oh Dear, OhDeer → OhDear
  • oof1, oof2, oof3 → ooff1, ooff2, ooff3
  • UhOh → Uh-Oh
  • TakeOver → TakeCover (Russian soundbank, actually mis-translated as "take-over")

Unused sounds

  • Surf.wav (Is only shown in American soundbank files)
  • Wobble.wav (was intended to be used when falling from a high distance, as with the first Worms generation)
  • Uh-oh.wav (referenced by the game, but unused by the game engine)
