Re: [hlcoders] Sound only playing when player is not touching the ground
'this' is the weapon itself, so perhaps when it adds players by PVS, it
doesn't find your player because the player isn't in the weapons PVS.

Re: [hlcoders] Sound only playing when player is not touching the ground
Aha, got it to work by doing CPASAttenuationFilter filter( GetPlayerOwner() );
Though it makes me kinda wonder what it was about filter( this ) that didn't
always work correctly.

I only have suggestions but they are worth a try.
Change your CPASAttenuationFilter filter( this ); filter to NULL or a filter
which has no rules to see if its a bad filter, and if that's the problem
then figure out what isn't passing.
If its not that then check if CHAN_STATIC is causing the problem, change it
to CHAN_WEAPON for example.

Re: [hlcoders] Sound only playing when player is not touching the ground
Hmm...apparently Yahoo mail doesn't like to reply to the list anymore when I
hit reply. So I couldn't find anything particularly interesting in
CSoundPatch. I also did some more testing, and things just got more confusing.
Apparently, the sound will work when I'm standing on some surfaces, but not on
others. I wasn't able to find any sort of pattern among the surfaces it did
work on versus the surfaces it doesn't work on.

Have you checked the code behind m_sndCannonCharge???

[hlcoders] Sound only playing when player is not touching the ground
Hi,
So I'm trying to give a weapon a charge up sound like the gauss gun on the
jeep, and so I pretty much just copied and pasted the relevant bits of code to
play the sound. However, the sound will only play when the player starts
shooting while they aren't touching the ground. If the player is touching the
ground, the sound doesn't play. Well, actually, it claims the sound is
playing, but I never hear it.
CPASAttenuationFilter filter( this );
m_sndCannonCharge = (CSoundEnvelopeController::GetController()).SoundCreate(
filter, entindex(), CHAN_STATIC, "Tau.GaussCharge", ATTN_NORM );
assert(m_sndCannonCharge!=NULL);
if ( m_sndCannonCharge != NULL )
{
DevMsg( "Playing sound\n" );
(CSoundEnvelopeController::GetController()).Play( m_sndCannonCharge, 1.0f,
50 );
(CSoundEnvelopeController::GetController()).SoundChangePitch(
m_sndCannonCharge, 250, 3.0f );
}
The relevant soundscript entry:
"Tau.GaussCharge"
{
"channel""CHAN_STATIC"
"volume""VOL_NORM"
"soundlevel""SNDLVL_NORM"
"wave"")weapons/gauss/chargeloop.wav"
}
I've tried using a couple different channels for the sound, but with no luck.
Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?
Garrett
