Custom sounds in ArmA 3

Recommended Posts

Hi guys!

I have problems getting custom radio sounds to work in ArmA 3. Does anyone know if something is changed?

I created a new mission in ArmA 3 Editor, saved it, then Alt-tab'ed out of the Editor, copied a sound folder from a mission I made for ArmA 2 and pasted in the new ArmA 3 mission folder, copied the old description.ext and pasted in the ArmA 3 mission folder, went back to the Editor, made a radio trigger where I On Activation put playSound "soundname"; saved the mission again and then did preview. Result: I get the error "sound not found".

Does anyone know way this didn't work? Did I forgot something? It's been a while since I last did any modding or missionmaking for ArmA games.

Make sure the sound file is in .ogg format - other than that not sure been a while since I added sounds to missions, think this belongs in mission editing btw - just a friendly pointer. Hope that helps.

Hi! Thanks for your reply.

All files are in .ogg format. I used the same files for ArmA 2 missions, the same descprition.ext and the same code to call the sound via a radio trigger. As far as I know I am doing everything I did in ArmA 2, but now it doesn't work. :-(

--> Moderator: I will repost in the Missions forum. You may close this thread. Thank you.
