Unified sound pool for campaigns

[Balschoiw 0]

The idea:

Have one or two folders (music/sound) in the campaign.pbo that are acessible from every mission without having to create subfolders in the mission.pbo

Reason:

Reduce filesize of the camapign.pbo by having the choice to reuse sounds and pieces of music without having to embedd them for every single mission but to have them in top-level root folders that are accessible from every single mission.

How it´s done:

Just giving it a referrer in the description.ext that points on the root folders of campaign.pbo

Simple code would be nice.

Why:

Especially when using custom music or sounds like radio messages or situational awareness sounds it would be very nice to have a general sound or music pool outside the OFP2 main program. This way you only had to embedd them once and could use them in any mission of the campaign without having to put them into the mission´s music or sound folders over and over again.

I guess the DataExt did something like that in the CWC campaign but it was only for sounds. An addition for music would be nice.

Isn't AMORE supposed to deal with this already?

Isn't that already possible? Un-PBO resistance campaign .pbo to see what I mean.

it's possible, it's been done, all that is needed is some clear discussion between communitymembers.

JAM/MAAM = weapons

"amore" = missions

and there was something for tanks, and airplanes, but that's not released yet
