Hitsounds bug/problem

BOOM! · Post by **BOOM!** » Fri May 07, 2004 8:27 am

Hello,

i have a problem with my hitsounds. Maybee bug, so i posted it here.

problem:
- Headshot sound 'DING' does NOT work
- Bodyshit sound 'THUD' does work
-Team damage sound 'BLA' does work

What ever i try, it didnt work:
- I've used etpro setting YES and HEADSHOT ONLY
- All sound quality settings tried
- Reinstalled sound driver, sound works tip top with all else.
- Reinstalled wolf 3 times.
- Ooh and i'm very capable of getting headshots

Anybody have any idea Why? and How i can fix this?

thanks,

i don't have a clue, but a few things you could test:

turn up your speakers, the 'ding' may seem a little low

when spectating others do you hear it then?

up you com_soundmegs a bit

doesnt make sense that the other 2 work and the headshot doesnt

maybe you aren't hitting their head ?

thanks for your quick replies!

Answer to your question, lagger; No i dont hear them when speccing others, and the 'DING' is not disguised by other sounds.

Here's some more info on the settings i use right now:

seta s_volume "0.177083"
seta s_musicvolume "0.406250"
seta s_separation "0.5"
seta s_doppler "1"
seta s_khz "44"
seta s_mixahead "0.2"
seta s_mixPreStep "0.05"
seta s_defaultsound "0"
seta s_wavonly "0"
seta com_soundMegs "32"

maybee that helps.......

jUmp3r: Music is just nostalgy when starting up. The sound effects are ok, i hear them clearly, just no 'DING'.

you could try recording a demo of you shooting someone in the face... with b_hitsounds 1. if you record the demo without hitsounds, they wont be present in the demo.

before replaying the demo, do "/set s_show 1"

every time you land a headshot it should write ###### : sound/etpro/headshot.wav in console

iirc, you could try replacing the headshot sound in demos by putting it in a .zip file with the same path and name, sound/etpro/headshot.wav. rename the .zip file to zzzz.pk3 and place it in the etpro dir.

correct me if i'm wrong

the replacing might work on unpure servers

and i dont hear em either when im spectation others

Lagger:

I tried it out with a friend. Made a demo. I did hear the 'THUD" but not the 'DING'.

Then i watched it in demo with "set s_show 1".

I saw and heard the 'THUD' sound/etpro/hit.wav
I saw but not heard the 'DING' sound/etpro/headshot.wav

still no solution, thanks for the help sofar.

when i type in console:

/play sound/etpro/headshot.wav

i do hear it strangely anough
