SND Sound Help (Hero Spawn Sound) [Solved]

[LitFam]

Is this correct for custom hero streams: http://www.mediafire.com/file/eai0mm6nh6o3plm/BOT.zip

How do I add this to my .lua for the custom hero stream to work?

[Marth8880]

Please post the contents of the files in code tags. Thanks.

[LitFam]

Code tags do you mean I post the code here instead of a download link?

EDIT

Is there anything that I need to add to the .lua code Marth8880?

[code]ucft

Segment("bot_inf_geth_prime_snd_hero_selectable", 200.0, 10.0, 3.0); // Mace Windu, reporting for duty
}
}[/code]

Do I do this in global instead of the BOT folder in sounds/worlds?

[Marth8880]

Code: Select all

ucft
{
    REQN
    {
        "str"
        "align=2048"
        "bot_vo"
		"bot_vo_slow"
    }
}

Is this all that's in the REQ file? There should also be a section listing your SND file(s).


EDIT:

Okay so I looked at the files you included in the ZIP file, and it appears that in the REQ, you've listed your SND file in the STR section; SND files must be listed in the CONFIG section.

EDIT 2:

Oh, and to answer your question regarding the LUA, sound LVLs generally must be loaded with ReadDataFile, and STM/ST4 files must be opened with OpenAudioStream.

[LitFam]

Do I build this in global?

[Marth8880]

No. It should be in your world's sound folder, e.g.:

Code: Select all

data_ABC\Sound\worlds\ABC\

Thank you marth8880 I will credit you.

[Marth8880]

No need to credit me my dude.

I had a similar problem when trying to add a hero spawn voiceover. Here's what I have in my LUA:

OpenAudioStream("dc:sound\\tes.lvl", "tescw_music")
OpenAudioStream("dc:sound\\tes.lvl", "tes");


Here's my sound folder:

tes.req

Hidden/Spoiler:

[code]ucft
{
REQN
{
"str"
"align=2048"
"tescw_music" //this is the name of both my .stm and .mus


}
REQN
{
"lvl"
"tescw" //this is tescw.req
"tescw_music1" //this is my .snd


}
}[/code]

tescw.req

Hidden/Spoiler:

[code]ucft
{
REQN
{
"bnk"
"align=2048"
"tes_effects" //.asfx
"tescwsfx" //.sfx

}

REQN
{
"config"
"imp_walk_atst"
"tescw1" //this is my .snd
"tescw_music1" //this is my music .snd
"tescw_music"
}
}[/code]

Any ideas why the voiceover isn't showing up ingame? Thanks.
