Assistance with ArmA 3 replacement configuration file

[LtShadow 41]

Hello there community,

I would like to ask of your assistance on a project I am working on as part of the [@RealSound] team. I have ran into an issue with the replacement configuration coding. It all looks square, and as if it's not wanting to read at all. Here is the error;

Directory of the replacement config (when unpacked);

Configuration file;

http://www.mediafire.com/view/bh479whncc5dczh/config.cpp

Pastebin of configuration file;

http://pastebin.com/SGhSJx8P

The ArmA 3 error reporting file says the same error.

Thank you!

This is a replacement sound configuration for the -

F/A-18 Super Hornet

And yes, I have his permission to do a replacement configuration for sounds only!

Since I know the creater of Fa18 addon personally, you should talk to him, I have worked with him in creating different types of addons for my own use and he likes to use no external configs, which could possibly interfere with you, it has for me when adding items to my own models, but usually he has his genius ways of finding a way to make it work properly, but ill take a quick look

well first of all

class CfgVehicles {
class JS_JC_FA18E //External class reference
class JS_JC_FA18F //External class reference

//replace sounds only - replace original

should be (some times without ; it works and sometimes without it doesn't

class CfgVehicles {
class JS_JC_FA18E; //External class reference
class JS_JC_FA18F; //External class reference

//replace sounds only - replace original

or

class CfgVehicles {
class JS_JC_FA18E {
          }; //External class reference
class JS_JC_FA18F {
          }; //External class reference

//replace sounds only - replace original

Thanks, mate. I will have a look at that and get back to you. I have written permission from John for the sound mods, he said it was alright (last time I knew).

Thank you Alex, that seemed to work! Oh the minor details... ;)

Thanks again,

no problem, i know you got permission, i was refering to the way he codes his configs and scripts, he doesnt use external references, thought that may have been the problem, but glad to know it works

I believe this should work better

//replace sounds only - dont replace original FA18, add new entry instead

//also dont use JS_JC_ prefix since they are kind of associated with original authors of FA18's,

//it's a coomon agreed way of identifing author and preventing similar content from conflicting in game

//so using new custom prefix for your unit clasname instead would be more professional

Lt has asked for permission to try implement his sounds on FA18. As Saul and me released the mod with Creative Commons Licence [Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs] then we agreed that a replacement config would be the best solution if anyone wishes he will have choice in which way to play the game.
