[Tut] Custom Sound Looping [with distance restrictions]
Posted: November 1st, 2012, 1:21 am
Mapping
- Right-click < Script < Origin
- Add Key/Value
Key: targetname
Value: repect_radio (or anything else you want)
Scripting
Create a GSC called "my_map.gsc" and place inside folder "raw/maps/mp".
SoundAlias
- Create a file called "my_map.csv" and place this inside folder "raw/soundaliases"
- Save the following text into your CSV file (in notepad) [Where you see the word [EDIT], please remove this and make a single line of text]
- Open the file in Excel (unless you understand csv structures)
- Change first column to the alias of the sound. You will replace these in the GSC above ( // Soundalias = respect )
- The third column is the location of the file. I recommend creating a folder "my_map" and then placing your files in there.
- The fourth column is the minimum volume the file can be when inside the max distance.
- The fifth column is the maximum the volume will be.
- Change the values 100 and 250 (250 is the furthest you will hear the sound from and 100 is the distance from the sound where volume starts to decrease)
- Leave all other values alone.
Sound
- When using an MP3 make sure to set the bitrate at 96kbps (the game most likely allows more, however this is the setting I used successfully), you can change the bitrate using Audacity or a similar program.
- Place the sound file inside folder "raw/sound/my_map"
Zone File
- Open "zone_source\my_map.csv"
- Add "sound,my_map,,all_mp" to the bottom line
- Right-click < Script < Origin
- Add Key/Value
Key: targetname
Value: repect_radio (or anything else you want)
