ambient generic Created 19 years ago2005-03-02 00:38:56 UTC by rat808

i have a problem. i try to have the ambient/atmosphere/thunder2.wav play loop but plays once. then i tried making it triggered but then i dont hear anything. whats wrong? if i get it working, how would i make the sound delay every 15sec. but play again and again?

Have whatever triggers it StopSound and StartSound in succession? Or set it to not loop.

it is set not to loop. but then i tried thunder with logic_timer for min. 5 max. 25 and it still doesnt make any sound. what can i do?

Did you set the timer to have an output of OnTimer and the entity to your sound name and then a PlaySound?

Make sure you set it to use random time as well, if you're using a min and max value.

where do i put the playsound at? and what is it?. and its set to random

In the Outputs tab, add a new one. Set the first field to OnTimer. The second has your sound name, the last has the PlaySound bit.

i tried that. ok lets see. ambient_generic thunder2 ,sound-10 ,flags is not looped, and start silent are on. logic_timer-min.5 ,max25. , outputs-ontimer ,entity name thunder2 ,play once-no. parameter override-none ,delay-0.

could you give me a example how to set it up? ambient_generic named thunder2.
