Plugins + Scripts Footsteps Extended

---

Detects when feet contact surfaces and plays surface-appropriate sound samples - boots on wood, bare feet on carpet, heels on tile, and so on. Ships with 24 built-in surfaces and hundreds of audio samples from SPQR's library.

Features​

• 24 built-in surfaces: boots, barefoot, socks, sneak, carpet, concrete, dirt, grass, gravel, gritty, hard, heels (x5), ice, squeaky, step, wood (x3), and more
• Per-foot Unity AudioSources attached directly to the lFoot / rFoot rigidbodies for proper 3D spatial positioning, no scene clutter
• Pitch jitter keeps repeated samples from sounding identical
• Independent per-foot cooldowns so double-foot landings fire both sounds
• Anti-double-fire global gap absorbs the engine's same-frame ripple collisions
• Auto-discovery: drop your own .wav or .mp3 files into any surface folder, or create entirely new surface folders. No naming convention required
• Live per-foot indicators plus Test Left / Test Right buttons for previewing without walking the character
• EventTrigger panels for wiring custom VaM actions to Any Step / Left Step / Right Step
• Verbose timestamped debug log toggle for troubleshooting

What's new in v2​

• No more ghost audio refs. Clips are now plugin-scoped. Removing the plugin from a scene no longer leaves stale entries in Scene Audio Control.
• .mp3 support. Drop .mp3 files into surface folders alongside .wav.

Install​

1. Download Lapiro.FootstepsExtended.2.var from this Hub page
2. Drop it into your VaM AddonPackages/ folder
3. On a Person atom: Plugins tab > Add Plugin > Lapiro.FootstepsExtended > Footsteps.cslist
4. Pick a surface from the Sounds dropdown
5. Walk the character around (or click Test Left / Test Right)

Adding your own samples​

The plugin auto-discovers everything at load time:

• Add samples to an existing surface: drop new .wav or .mp3 files into the surface's folder, then re-pick that surface from the dropdown
• Add a new surface: create a new folder under Custom/Sounds/FootstepsSFX/, drop in your samples, reload the plugin
• Naming doesn't matter, any .wav or .mp3 file is picked up
