"Ding" - By HPL3

[pachi]

Hey guys, I've been experiencing the Ding noise when using the Fly perspective. It specifically only happens when using the ALT + WASD and QE. The sound plays repeatedly on input and you can tell it is constantly triggered when you hold down any of the button combos.

I noticed the system sound is the same one that is used when trying to open a file in use by another process so I looked closer at IO.

I hooked up Process Explorer(the sysinternals tool) to the LevelEditor process and saw that it accesses the hpl_update.log file extremely often, and always when replicating the bug although it does access the file when performing other actions within the LevelEditor. The file isn't kept open, it is rapidly opened and closed. Might be related to the ding.

I'd really like to figure out the reason for the Ding. I'll keep trying to pin down the reason for the call to the system sound. Maybe I can get more info from an Event Log...
If anyone has any ideas I'd love to hear em
