Cant get this function to work (sound)

[Fralexxelarf]

void OnStart()
{
SetEntityPlayerInteractCallback("Key_1", "Scary_3_1", true);

}

void Scary_3_1(string &in entity)
{
SetEntityActive("Skull_1", true);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "21_scream7.snt", "Player", 0, false);
GiveSanityDamage(5.0f, true);
AddTimer("CabinetTimer",0.7, "Scary_3_2");

}

This is so weird cause all the other functions work but not the "PlaySoundAtEntity" , and I have used that script before, in the same map. Does anyone have an idea why it doesnt work?

Did you restart the CS and try again?

yep, and i have no music in the background, this works though, after entering an area;

PlaySoundAtEntity("", "12_girl_scream.snt", "Player", 0, false);

but if i replace it with 21_scream7 in my

PlaySoundAtEntity("", "21_scream7.snt", "Player", 0, false);

it still doesnt sound when i pick up the key, is there something wrong with

void Scary_3_1(string &in entity)?

here's an other sound script, the function works but the sound wont play;

void OnStart()
{
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "Scary_Area_1", "Scary_1", true, 1);

}

void Scary_1(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
PlaySoundAtEntity("Scary_1", "lurker_hit_wood1.snt", "player", 0, false);
AddPropImpulse("armour_nice_complete_1", 0, 0, 2, "world");

}

nevermind, the snt's were corrupt

I've been having the same issue with:

PlaySoundAtEntity("big_clock_chime", "Custom\big_clock_chime.snt", "clock_grandfather_1", 0, false);
The file is located in redist/sounds/Custom, and is not corrupted.

PlaySoundAtEntity("big_clock_chime", "Custom\big_clock_chime.snt", "clock_grandfather_1", 0, false);
The file is located in redist/sounds/Custom, and is not corrupted.

The game will find the filename, no need to give it information about the folder location.
PlaySoundAtEntity("big_clock_chime", "big_clock_chime.snt", "clock_grandfather_1", 0, false);

Using your code, the sound still doesn't load.

also, the syntax was incorrect.

void Scary_3_1(string &in entity)


Should be:

void Scary_3_1(string &in asEntity)



Perhaps that will solve another issue that comes up.

Have you torrented your amnesia or something? Be honest.

Yes I'd buy it if steam would let me use my debit card. I can get custom sounds to work through the level editor, just not through my script.
