Sound problem! Please help Created 17 years ago2007-02-05 16:54:27 UTC by doc

Argh! I have tried everything but my custom sounds wont work! I followed the tutorial on this site and created a folder named sound in the valve directory, and then a folder named mywav, then i added the details to the sentences document as described in the tutorial, but it didn't work, the scientist won't talk! Then i tried to add it next to 'hello8' in the scientist section in the sentences file, naming it hello9, and then change the details in the scripted sentence... still won't work. Then i checked the sound format, nothing wrong with the format..
adding the sound folder from sierravalve to sierra didn't work either.
Then i overwrote the sentences text in the pak0 file, and added the sound in the scientist folder.. still wouldn't work.. tried the same thing by following the tutorial on this site and adding it to the pak0 file..

How hard can it be? What am i doing wrong?? please help!

Here is an example from my sentences file, when the sound was located in the sierrahalflifevalvesoundmywav folder:

// HALF-LIFE SPEECH SYSTEM SENTENCES. DO NOT MODIFY THIS FILE! Max of 1023 sentences.

//MYWAV
ME_SPEAK1 mywav/help

// HUMAN GRUNTS
HG_GREN0 hgrunt/clik(p120) grenade! clik
HG_GREN1 hgrunt/(t30) clik take!(e75) cover!(s5) clik
HG_GREN2 hgrunt/clik clik oh! shit! clik

By the way: Don't mind the grunt part, i also tried to create a space between // and MYWAV, as not described in the tutorial.

Please help

I know, sounds messy, if you don't understand my bad description, please explain in detail how you created and used custom sounds for your mod/map. Thankyou
