poppychips Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 (edited) Hello! I'm currently trying to get my custom character's voice files to work, but no matter what I do, they're mute. I've tried fiddling around with the remap sound event code in modmain.lua, I've tried moving the MP3 files directly into the sound folder, I've tried little bits and pieces of code, all to no avail. What am I supposed to do?

K1NGT1GER609 Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Well here's a link to how to do a character's voice (its a bit out dated but still works): As for mp3's the game recognizes .wav sound files but you can use audacity audio program (which is free) to convert .mp3 to .wav along with reducing the sound's strength.

Oh, ok! I had followed that tutorial and a video, the video recommended .mp3 filetype, but I'll try it with wav, thanks!

K1NGT1GER609 Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 (edited) Probably the search path for the sound on the modmain lua isn't correct, I don't suppose you have a screenshot or picture of how you set it up in the fmod designer? Hmm strange the sound mod tutorial doesn't mention this code: GLOBAL.character's_voice = GetModConfigData("character's_voice") in the modmain.

I put that little piece of code in the modmain, and it didn't change a thing. I had put all the sound files into FMOD as mp3 files, could that be my problem?

K1NGT1GER609 Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 (edited) Hmm strange I thought you already replace the mp3 files with .wav in fmod, well do that and rebuild the .fev and .fsb files. Other than that I'd say if it doesn't work then theres lots of possibilities of what is wrong.

poppychips Posted July 1, 2017 Author Share Posted July 1, 2017 @K1NGT1GER609 Alright, so I rebuilt the files, but it's still not working... Is there anything else I can try?

K1NGT1GER609 Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 There's a chance the .fsb file changes its name everytime you build. At this point the only way to help you is to see the file itself since there's no other suggestions left I think.
