I need help packaging sounds/I'm having trouble doing so

[Supreme Guy]

Ignore the fact that I'm supposed to be gone and merely help me with a small problem.

my friend is making a spaceship and I want to port some sounds from freelancer to increase atmosphere. I copied the same layout from a default sound mod yet it will not load correctly or crash the game when I try to start with it.

at risk of having it stolen I will instead post only the script and the file names.

Code: [Select]

fire_bolt_long.wav
fire_bolt_med.wav
fire_bolt_micro.wav
fire_bolt_short.wav
fire_capship
fire_capship_forward_gun
fire_countermeasure

if the task of fixing is too much of an arduous one then I will happily send to .zip to anyone who thinks they can repair my mistakes

you usually want to add "Sound" after the file name

Code: [Select]

datablock AudioProfile(fire_bolt_longSound)
{
filename = "./fire_bolt_long.wav";
description = AudioClosest3d;
preload = false;
};

I've attempted that once already. it yielded no results

Edit: wait, without an underscore. No I haven't.

Console log of it crashing? It might say if there's a problem with the sounds.

Sounds can't have a stereo channel, which might be an issue.

[Supreme Guy]

I've attached my console log.

As far as I can see it just crashes unexpectedly when it tries to load the zip.

I'd really like to get this resolved quickly and easily so can anyone volunteer to download the zip and sort it out?

Try adding this to every sound datablock.

Code: [Select]

description = AudioClosest3d;
preload = false;From what I know, all sounds need those two lines.
