A lil' problem with sound... Created 19 years ago2005-03-15 13:05:31 UTC by Daubster

Hi every1! I just logged in the first time and i got a really stupid
problem...

I'm a starting mapper, i read your tutorials, started working on my first CS map... everything OK.. until i added ambient_generics in my map. :

The compiling was allright, but the map itself doesn't run.. When the map starts loading the console writes unable to find sound/c!

I tried to fix the entity, but it still didnt work, and i used sounds from the ambience folder. I mean the waws cant be wrong when they work on other maps!

Can anyone tel me what to do? Im desparate! my maps will be soundles!!!!!!

You specified wrong path in the entity.

I got the path thru browse... how can a path thru browse be wrong? :

oh yea... ill give you the exact lines in the console... maybe that will help more.. here they are:

Resources to request: 0 bytes
Warning: unable to open sound/c for transfer
processing sound/c

and it freezes here... HEEEELP!!!

there is no sound is original hl or cs named "c", so it must be wrong.

What sound is it?

here:
c:/Sierra/counter-strike/cstrike/sound/ambience/boomer

Never browse for wav files, just add the folder name + the wav file. In your case:

ambience/boomer.wav

Add that line into your ambient_generic propties, under WAV.

I forgot to say this:

If that sound file is custom, make sure you send that wav with the map, if you're gonna give to other people. If it is a standard CS wav, you don't have to send the wav with the map.

IT WORKS!!! IT ACTUALLY WORKS!!!!!!!
Thanks!!!
