Calling music or SFX from Triggers no longer working since 1.56

[tourist 617]

Hi there,

 

I have some WIP missions where I had a fully working description.ext set up to call either music tracks from a folder named music or SFX from a folder called sound.  Everything worked fine before 1.56. 

 

Now, out of the blue, I can't call them tracks or SFX from my triggers and typing anything like playMusic also won't start the sounds or music tracks.  I'd like to know if anything has changed regarding the necessary syntax of description.ext and would be glad if someone could have a look at my attached description.ext to see if it's set up correctly for 1.56. 

 

Here's the code:

onloadName = "BW COIN Kunduz AGM Test";
author = "tourist";
overviewText = "Basiert auf Einsätzen der Bundeswehr im Sommer 2010"; 
respawn = 3;
saving = 1;
debriefing = 1;

	minPlayers = 1; //min # of players the mission supports
	maxPlayers = 36; //max # of players the mission supports
};

Hope there's an easy fix and thanks in advance for any helpful tips,

As far as I know nothing has changed but I could be wrong..Ive done a few mission edits since the update and my triggers for music and sounds all work fine.

 

I just use the triggers as "music1""music2 etc etc and Cfg Muisc in the Description

 

 

class CfgMusic
{
tracks[]={};
 class music1
{ name = ""; sound[] = {\music\Voodoo.ogg, db+1, 1.0};
};
 class music2
{ name = ""; sound[] = {\music\office1.ogg, db+1, 1.0};
};
 class music3
{ name = ""; sound[] = {\music\satcom.ogg, db+1, 1.0};
};
 class music4
{ name = ""; sound[] = {\music\radio.ogg, db+1, 1.0};
};
};

Works fine here. Do you have all volumes for sound turned up?

[tourist 617]

Hi there and thx 4 the first tips.  I noticed that diesel has no quotings within the sound [] = {}; lines.  I'll try that.

 

 

Edit: Nope, that doesn't help. 

 

 

@killzone_kid: what do you mean by "all volumes for sound turned up"? It's not that the custom music is too silent, it's that I can't even select it from the trigger's drop down menu under the tracks categogy as I was able to do before 1.56.

[HeroesandvillainsOS 1504]

Sound triggers are not working for me either. In SP editor some (not all) of them work fine. The same missions in MP none of the triggers work at all.

Are you having problem with Eden created mission or 2d editor mission?

[HeroesandvillainsOS 1504]

Are you having problem with Eden created mission or 2d editor mission?

So far I've only tried missions that were created in 2D (I created the missions) and were then transfered, edited and saved again in 3D.

[killzone_kid 1333]

So far I've only tried missions that were created in 2D (I created the missions) and were then transfered, edited and saved again in 3D.

So does it work with unconverted 2d missions? Eden missions currently have some problems with triggers. To find out what mission you are running, use missionVersion command.

[tourist 617]

Well, my missions were never converted to 3D.  They were made with patch 1.54 in 2D ditor and I continued working on them with patch 1.56  in 2D editor so far. Seems the problem goes deeper, I fear... :(
