Radio sound not found - out of ideas.

[hungrytoheal 10]

Hi guys,

I'm trying to make a radio message + sound play in the following script:

p1 action ["EJECT", bird1]
~1
p2 action ["EJECT", bird1]
~1
p3 action ["EJECT", bird1]
~1
p4 action ["EJECT", bird1]
~1
p5 action ["EJECT", bird1]
~1
p6 action ["EJECT", bird1]
~1
p7 action ["EJECT", bird1]
~3
bird1 sideRadio "RadioMsg1"

Using the following description.ext:

class CfgSounds
{
sounds[] = {combat1, distantmortars1, jetflyby1}; 



class combat1
{
name = "combat1";
sound[] = {"\sound\combat1.ogg", db+10, 0.8};
titles[] = {};
};

class distantmortars1
{
name = "distantmortars1";
sound[] = {"\sound\distantmortars1.ogg", db+12, 0.8};
titles[] = {};
};

};

class CfgRadio
{
sounds[] = {RadioMsg1};


 class RadioMsg1
 {
  name = "Deployed";
   sound[] = {"\sound\deployed.ogg", db+0, 1.0};
   title = "This is helo one. Delta squad have been deployed, over.";
 };

};

However whenever I run the script in game I don't get the radio text and get an error saying "radio message RadioMsg1 not found".

Any ideas?

Thanks!

I copied this bit and tested it just changing the name of the sound to one I had and it works ok, check the name is correct and in the right place.

class CfgRadio
{
sounds[] = {RadioMsg1};


 class RadioMsg1
 {
  name = "Deployed";
   sound[] = {"\sound\deployed.ogg", db+0, 1.0};
   title = "This is helo one. Delta squad have been deployed, over.";
 };

};

You do have to reload the mission every time you save the description.ext or it won't update it.

You can also save after .ext changes.

PS: radio sound is only heard in the same group i think
