How do I trigger sounds & How do I make my own custom Flashbacks?

[i3670]

There's quite alot of text when it comes to the voices and subtitles.

You'll need the subtitles in your extra_english.lang file like this:

<CATEGORY Name = "Flashbacks">
<Entry Name="Flashback1_01">Text Here</Entry>
</CATEGORY>

Then you will need your sound files in the lang/eng/voices/flashbacks/NAME-OF-FILE. You can add sound effects with e.g. Audacity. There's a thread on the forum on how to change it.

When all that is done you can make your .flash file. Which can look like this:

<Flashback>
<Voices>
<Voice VoiceSound="flashbacks/F01_01bs.ogg" EffectSound="fb_sfx_03_archivesMODIFIED.ogg" TextCat="" TextEntry="" />
<Voice VoiceSound="flashbacks/F01_01.ogg" EffectSound="" TextCat="Flashbacks" TextEntry="Flashback1_01" />
<Voice VoiceSound="flashbacks/F01_02as.ogg" EffectSound="" TextCat="" TextEntry="" />
</Voices>
</Flashback>

You will haft to time it so that the sounds and subtitles don't start when the screen turns white. That's what the F01_01bs and F01_02as are for.

I hope I've explained it well enough. Any questions just ask.
