=EMP=Avery13 Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 When players join, I don't here anything saying that they have joined the server. Is there already a setting for this to have a personal greeting that you can customize and add a wave file to it and stuff? If so, where?

Management gaoesa Posted April 3, 2011 Management Share Posted April 3, 2011 You can add a sound for it in the shrubbot.cfg level block or if the greeting concerns only single player, using !useredit command. [level]level = 1name = Playerflags = CiEhaPMtgreeting = Welcome Player [n]^7!greeting_sound = sound/greeting/welcome.wav This is an example of a level block that adds the sound to the greeting. The actual wav file needs to be added in an additional pk3 file you make yourself. The silEnT mod does not provide any greeting sounds. Note that the path must be given also. The path is the directory structure inside the pk3 file you make. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Management gaoesa Posted April 4, 2011 Management Share Posted April 4, 2011 Yes. But that needs to be done using either online commands or with the help of the admins.cfg file. Example of an online command to directly edit user.!useredit "8 character PunkBuster GUID" sound sound/greeting/welcome.wav Example using admins.cfg1. Create admins.cfg file in the database directory.2. Insert admin block(s) in there. Example:[admin]name =guid = full 32 character PB GUIDlevel = 1flags =greeting =greeting_sound = sound/greeting/welcome.wav Note that even if you have an empty field in this block, it will overwrite the existing value in the database. For example leaving the level field to empty, will change the player admin level to 0 if it wasn't it before. However, the only required field is the 32 character PunkBuster GUID. 3. Issue !readamins command on the server. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
=EMP=Avery13 Posted September 10, 2011 Author Share Posted September 10, 2011 How do I convert an .mp3 to a .wav? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management gaoesa Posted September 11, 2011 Management Share Posted September 11, 2011 There are free programs that can do mp3 to wav conversions. I don't do conversions myself so I can't recommend any this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

=EMP=Avery13 Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 Are any of those places that I might also be able to take a file and cut it and basically make a soundwave for vsays and greetings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Means ? Are you looking for sound files? or the software to do that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
=EMP=Avery13 Posted September 17, 2011 Author Share Posted September 17, 2011 I have sound files... well... songs and other things, but I'd like to cut them down for just bit of the file. Do you know of anything where I can just take it and cut a piece out of the song without doing it the hard and long way? (make a windows movie with that part of the song, put it on youtube, and then do one of the youtube to mp3 websites) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management TheSilencerPL Posted September 18, 2011 Management Share Posted September 18, 2011 Audacity -> open the file -> cut what you want -> save the file in the format you want.There is nothing simpler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoGooD Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Audacity is very good as others have stated. Another free one and great for this particular purpose is Wavosaur. It's easy to convert batch files to the correct bit/hertz settings. It's also easy to edit tracks. There are several good, free programs like this, you just have to look a bit.

=EMP=Avery13 Posted September 19, 2011 Author Share Posted September 19, 2011 Thanks! I'm gonna have to mess around with audacity. Gotta figure it out, cause it doesn't make much sense to me yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
=EMP=Avery13 Posted October 31, 2011 Author Share Posted October 31, 2011 Question.. when putting the sounds in the pk3, how does the path know to go to that specific file? I was looking at old stuff and it looked like I made a sound folder inside the etmain. However, I'm not sure if that actually worked.. I just want to make some sounds for greetings on specific levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
=EMP=Avery13 Posted October 31, 2011 Author Share Posted October 31, 2011 Nevermind. I figured it out.. well part of it. I did put it in the pk3. I had 3 wav files, one named player, one named members, and one named lvl10. As far as I can tell, player works just because the bots connected. When I connect it should be playing lvl10, but it does not. At least, I can not hear it. I do hear all the others though.. the sounds are written as: sound/greetings/player.wavsound/greetings/members.wavsound/greetings/lvl10.wav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Management hellreturn Posted October 31, 2011 Management Share Posted October 31, 2011 Try to play the sound using below command over rcon. playsound [slot#|name] [filename] Plays the specified sound file. The slot number/player name parameter is optional. If the slot number or playername is specified, only that player hears the sound, otherwise all players hear the sound. g_tyranny must be enabled in order to play a sound to a specific player. If you hear the sound, wav file is working and path is correct. Also do you have greeting sound set up on your level 10 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
=EMP=Avery13 Posted October 31, 2011 Author Share Posted October 31, 2011 The greeting sound is set to all the levels they need to be. I will mess with that when I finish working on a tutorial that has been kicking me in the butt all day so far. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
=EMP=Avery13 Posted January 21, 2012 Author Share Posted January 21, 2012 BUMP! Ok.. this time I am having issues with the other end of the greetings. My sounds are playing just fine, but the actual greeting messages are not playing this time. This is what my level 0 (default) looks like: [level] level = 0 name = New Player flags = aM# greeting = ^2Welcome ^1New Player ^2to the server! greeting_sound = sound/greetings/newplayer.wav Sound is playing, just not the greeting text itself.

Management gaoesa Posted January 23, 2012 Management Share Posted January 23, 2012 It looks ok. Could you check if there are parse errors from the log. Also, you can use [n] and the actual nickname of the player is used in the greeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
