I can't make my sound work

**ingedoom** · 03-07-2012, 10:51 PM

Hi forum

I have the problem that i can't make my sound work.

I put my MP3 in audacity and exported it as .ogg(vorbis) to the "sounds" folder in my CSfolder where i also made a .snt file with the same name.

Here is what my .snt contains:

to play the sound i use:

PlaySoundAtEntity("clock", "clock.snt", "clock_grandfather_1", 2, false);

and i am 100% it is called since since it shows the message that is in the same callback.

Can any of you help me please?

Keep both the .ogg and .snt in your custom stories' name folder, then in a new folder called music. I know it may not be needed but I do anyway, so I don't accidentally delete it.

There is a high chance your .snt is set up incorrectly. What is in your .snt?

As JenniferOrange shows, "clock" != "clock.ogg"

So i put my .ogg and .snt into amnesia/csname/ and into
amnesia/csname/music/??
No other custom stories i've seen does that.. Did i understand what u said right? If not; can you then be more specific?

What do you mean by this? Jennifer does not say that.

Well, i made it work by copying a working .snt file from another custom story and just put in the name of my file instead and then changed my script to the same which was used in the cs i took it from. This is a way to do it, but i have not learned much tho... Time to experiment! I suggest others having troubles do the samething.
