Ok i've searched for speech tutorials and searched the forums, but cant find anything revelant to what I want.
How do you make people talk?
Like a scientist or something, saying something other than the automatic random line of speech you get when you get close to a scientist.
Good Karma to all who help.........
See money isnt the only inscentive.

Make a scripted sentence and set the speaker type, to the monster with the name that you want to talk. Set the listener type to an entitie name, or another dood that you want him to look at when he talks. put player in the field if you want him to look at the dood.... You need to make the sentence name to something with ! in front of it. To get the sentence lists, you look somewhere for your Sentences.txt file. If you dont have one, and you have other HL mods, then use windows search to find it. In that file, should be a BUUUUUUUUUTTTT LOAD of lines that would appear something like this..... green custom/green. So in the scripted sentence, you would put !green. VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU PUT THE !. andway.... if you put !green, it will play the sound "custom/green" from the example up there.That would play the sound with that filepath in your Sounds folder. BUT, if you go into it, and you see a BUNCH of sounds youve never heard of... go into some PAK files with wally and they should be in there. Some PAK files arent the same, so sometimes its hard to find the right ones.... From now on!, me and seventh are a duo! He links the site with info on it! , and i make the paragraph version of SPACIFICALLY what he asked!!!!!

Off topic.

From testing, I've gotten speakers to work without a ! in the sentence group. I got FAR_WAR to play without a ! before on a speaker.

well, here's how i get scientists to talk:

i open up HLMV, and open the pak file, then i hear all the sounds untill i find one i like, then i open up titles.txt and try to find a sentence that matches the name of the sound, then using a scripted_sentence
in hammer, i put the sentence name found in titles.txt in the sentence box with a ! befor the name i.e. !SC_BOOB1
and i put the name of the sci in the speaker type box.
:)

PAK files are obsolete with the death of WON. Get Steamified.

http://www.steampowered.com

Since all the sounds are stored in the GCF with Steam and need to be extracted to hear them, just extract all of the sounds to valvesounds and just open them from there. It saves some time :) . And afaik, the sentences are in the aptly named sentences.txt and not titles.txt.

It's SC_BOOBY by the way :P .

Oops, i accidentally said titles.txt i meant sentences.txt
and i didn't know what the name of the sentence was, i just put something that popped into my head, boobie,boobie,boobie.

Er, I didnt mean get something called steamified, I meant that you should get steamified by getting Steam, if you get what I mean. If not, ignore me :P .
