Ogg File Will not work

[HENLEY 0]

I am trying to make my own custom made sounds using the dbpoeramp tools have also installed the plug in to go with it and they are correct.

1. I did the sound I wanted lets say "Hello How are you" using the wav.

2. I converted the wav to a ogg (for the mission to read"

3. I made a description.txt file

which looks like this

class CfgRadio

{

class sounds{name = "";hello[] = {"hello.ogg", db, 1.0};title = $STRM_hello;};

};

4. And a small mission in the OFP then saved it

5. I put the Ogg and the text file in the mission I saved

6. And in the player init I put this in WSol (which is the player unit) WSOL SAY "HELLO"

NOW HERE'S THE PROBLEM it will not say nothing at all I have made sure that the frequency was 44100 still nothing. Each time its says can't find.

PLEASE HELP AS I HAVE NOW TRY FOR WELL OVER TWO WEEKS AND I'M ABOUT TO PULL MY HAIR OUT.

Is there a good site that has the ogg sounds in so I can look at them and learn as long as the site missions are in sqs files and not in PBO.

THANKS :confused:SO AM I IF YOUR CONFUSED

ur obviously trying to do stuff when u haven't read up about it.

firstly u have a desription.txt file when it should be "description.ext" secondly have u made sure that u have also converted the sound to 16 bit mono? y r u using a radio call when u should simply have a speech not radio.

Class cfgsounds

have u made a folder called sounds in ur mission directory? have u put the ogg file in that folder?

and u shouldn't be using the units init field for putting in names of units in... use a trigger and then use <span style='color:red'>unitname say "sound"</span>

Oh and your DESCRIPTION.EXT is all wrong...

You have 'class radio' then 'class sound' Every time I did this when I first started with sound's the game kicked me to my desktop!!

This is what it should look like:

class CfgRadio

{

sounds[] = {radio1};

class radio1

{

name = "";

sound[] = {"radio1.ogg", db+0, 1.0};

title = $STRM_radio1;

};

};

You could try the sound editing tutorial at the editing center :

http://www.ofpeditingcenter.com (and click on the 'tutorials' button)

There is a example mission that goes with the tutorial so you can compare and see what you did wrong...

From what I see, you used DbPowerAmp , but most versions of DbPowerAmp do not work, especially the latest versions. Best is to use wavesurfer or cool edit pro. You'll find the URL's in the tutorial.

Good luck....
