Failing on the phonograph - Acies - 08-23-2011
Hi! I'm failing to get a phonograph to play a sound.
This is a part of the original code:
Spoiler below!
This is my code:
Spoiler below!
I have put the function in the connectionstatecallback on the entity. I'd appreciate some help
RE: Failing on the phonograph - palistov - 08-23-2011
Try making the entity for the connection state callback "phonograph_1_lever" or something like that. Open the entity in the model editor and see what the lever body is called and just append that onto your phonograph's name.
RE: Failing on the phonograph - Acies - 08-23-2011
It confuses me how that will affect it, since there are no name changes in justine. I'll give it a try though. On an off-topic note I will soon give you further details on the map I'm making for the community project.

It didn't work. If someone has managed this I would appreciate any guidelines

Completely blind:
Code:
void PlaySong(string &in asEntity, int alState)
{
if( alState == 1)
{
SetEntityInteractionDisabled("asEntity", true);
SetEntityActive("wood_box02_13", true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "Alexandria_Song.snt", "phonograph_1", 0.5f, false);
}

I have tried both alState 1 and alState -1. I'll give it a shot again though
RE: Failing on the phonograph - Tanshaydar - 08-24-2011
Phonograph is basically a valve, so it has its states. The code you wrote would invoke regardless of the state.
In Justine, there are more than one functions bound to phonograph. You might want to take a look at all of them.

I have looked at what I percieve as "all of them". The ones I posted in the original post is the ones which makes it play a sound. I can not mimic it though, which is why I ask for help. If you could take the time to try it out I would appreciate that
RE: Failing on the phonograph - Tanshaydar - 08-24-2011
Sure, I'll try it when I get home, now I don't have access to my pc. I want to use phonograph too.
RE: Failing on the phonograph - Elven - 08-24-2011
I used it this way and it worked:
void UseWaxOnPhono(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)
{
SetWheelStuckState("bloopersphono", 0, false);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "12_make_drill.snt", asEntity, 0.0f,false);
SetEntityPlayerInteractCallback("bloopersphono", "", false);
RemoveItem(asItem);
SetEntityConnectionStateChangeCallback("bloopersphono", "StateChangeBloopersPhono");
}
void StateChangeBloopersPhono(string &in asEntity, int alState)
{
if(alState != 1) return;
SetEntityInteractionDisabled(asEntity, true);
AddEffectVoice("bloopers_extra.ogg",
"",
"Recording", "Bloopers",
true, asEntity, 4, 16
);
}
On start I put:
AddUseItemCallback("bloopers", "bloopers_item", "bloopersphono", "UseWaxOnPhono", false);
SetWheelStuckState("bloopersphono", -1, false);
That brings back to the info that Wiki is wrong again. It asks in wiki entry first and then category, even tho it is opposite
