Footsteps Sound Library - 222 Steps on 12 Surfaces

222 footstep sounds generated as one matched set for games: twelve surfaces - grass, dirt, gravel, sand, mud, shallow water, snow, wood planks, stone and concrete, metal, carpet and forest floor - each with four walk steps, four run steps, a land, a heavy land, a jump-off, a scuff, a skid stop, two sneaking crouch steps and a walk and run loop, plus a thirteenth section of high heels, bare feet, heavy work boots, plate armour, stairs and ladders. Every surface carries the same seventeen sounds under the same names, so a footstep system can switch surfaces by folder without changing a line of code.
