Kork Death Cry

by Steven B · in Torque Game Engine · 05/15/2006 (12:23 pm) · 5 replies

I have kork stopped and I shoot him 3 times with the crossbow
and he does the death animation.
I have already changed the animation index number to get him
to do different anims.

My problem is that I want to add orc_death.wav when he is dying.
I have a .wav and .ogg and tried both.

I am in the right file player.cs, the audio profile, and funtion is there.

I tried a search and what I have read hasn't do it for me.

I'm thinking all I need is a small line of code, I am just no getting it.

I've been at it awhile with no luck. (all day)

Thanks if you can help,

Steve

Find another working sound.
and follow the code path.
do a project search for any of the specific datablock names used with this sound.

you should be able to solve this using what you have.

I can't figure it out.

Try using serverPlay3D instead of %obj.play3D. The latter doesn't work (the famous OpenAL implementation) in all functions, but the former has the drawback of not updating the transform, which might or might not be needed for your death animation depending on how your game is setup.

In any case, all the examples are in the code and you need to study it if you don't know how to do this, or better yet.. search the forums.
