Sounds (?!?!?)

Postby vman on Sun Sep 26, 2010 7:21 pm

Hi, i'm trying to add custom sounds to my HL2 map but it's driving me crazy.
I've gone through tons of guides/tutorial and no one seems to work !
No matter what i do i get the "file probably missing from disk/repository" error.
One of the strangest things i run into is that on some point i need to add the .txt file description (or .wav i can't remember now) to a file called 'game_sounds_manifest.txt' or to 'game_sounds_ambient_generic' yet i can't find those file anywhere on my hl2 subdirectory (I have them on a Portal subdirectory but not somewhere related to hl2).
I can hear the sounds on the Hammer editor as well but i when i run the map i get the "file probably..." error !
HELP !! PLZ !!!

Unrelated to your problem, but worth knowing.
you can use Mp3 for custom sounds/music, which is more ideal for custom maps due to the file sizes for .wav mostly being pretty large.

Vman, have you changed the sound browser from "game sounds" to "raw" ? It should show up there if you put it anywhere in the sounds folder.
