Title: Sound section in config...
Post by: Serial Killer on 10 Apr 2005, 15:07:01

I've almost done that Volcano addon, but there's a little problems with sound section in config. Here's that section..

Code: [Select]

class CfgSounds
{
    class start
    {
        sound[] = {""\Volcano\sounds\start.ogg"",db1.0,1.000000};
        name = "start.ogg";
        titles[]={};
    };
    class volcano
    {
        sound[] = {""\Volcano\sounds\volcano.ogg"",db1.0,1.000000};
        name = "volcano.ogg";
        titles[]={};
    };
};
When I start the game, then comes an error message:

Code: [Select]

Config: '\' encountered instead of ','
Can you fix that config for me..?

Try this one:

Code: [Select]

class CfgSounds
{
    class start
    {
        sound[] = {"\Volcano\sounds\start.ogg",db1.0,1.000000};
        name = "start.ogg";
        titles[]={};
    };
    class volcano
    {
        sound[] = {"\Volcano\sounds\volcano.ogg",db1.0,1.000000};
        name = "volcano.ogg";
        titles[]={};
    };
};

It's working :D I'll put your name on Special Thanks slot on my addon's readme, ok? ;)

Strange.. Game starts succesfully, but the sounds aren't working :-\ It says that sound cannot be found. Here's ALL the config...

class CfgPatches
{
     class Volcano
     {
         units[] = {Volcano};
         weapons[] = {};
         requiredVersion = 1.40;
     };
};

class CfgVehicles
{

     class All {};
     class AllVehicles: All {};
     class Land: AllVehicles {};
     class Static : Land {};
     class Building : Static {};
     class NonStrategic : Building {};
     class House: NonStrategic {};
     class Volcano: House
     {

         scope=2;
         vehicleClass="Serial Killer's stuff";
         side=TCivilian;
         cost=1;
         mapSize=1;
         displayName="Volcano";
         icon="unknown_move";
         model=\Volcano\Volcano;
     };
};

class CfgSounds
{
    class start
    {
        sound[] = {"\Volcano\sounds\start.ogg",db1.0,1.000000};
        name = "start.ogg";
        titles[]={};
    };
    class volcano
    {
        sound[] = {"\Volcano\sounds\volcano.ogg",db1.0,1.000000};
        name = "volcano.ogg";
        titles[]={};
    };
};

I try to activate them by playSound "\Volcano\sounds\sound" etc. etc. What should I do?

Are you sure you have a sounds folder inside your addon folder.

And start.ogg and volcano.ogg are inside it?

If this is all correct you should be able to use them.

Yes, all the sounds are inside of that addon folder

EDIT: Found the problem.. Sounds must be activated by playSound "sound" etc. no playSound "\Addon folder\..." :)
