Modding sound - Firing tubes

[eatmafish]

hi kaleuns, I thought in SH4 we can mod the sound to be played when firing each tube. I forgot how we did it but it was done.

but in SH5, I am clueless, it looks as if it only rotates the tube number and the rest stays the same...

Here below is what I found in Message_WE.cfg:

;Firing Tube #!
;Tube %d, los!
[Msg0]
MsgId=0
Priority=2
Timeout=5
Param0=2
MsgOgg0_0=MC_CR_SO_30_A;Firing Tube #!
MsgOgg0_1=MC_CR_SO_30_A;Tube #, #Los!# Will be moved in another ogg.
Param1=1
MsgOgg1_0=0;Number
Param2=2
MsgOgg2_0=MC_CR_SO_30_A2;Los!
MsgOgg2_1=MC_CR_SO_30_B1;Nothing after Firing Tube #!. ;feuert #KarlKoch

MC_CR_SO_30_A is "Rohr", which is the file seems to be played for every tube fired. How can we change it so that a complete different sound file is played for each fired tube?? For example, assign file A to firing tube 1, assign file B to firing tube 2, etc....

Pls excuse my english, I look forward to your input

Create new sound files and edit the list.
Should be straight forward to do.

Oh, wait!
We're talking about SH5 where nothing ever seems straight forward to do.

You can say that again.

The problem is how to link sound to the action.
Does anyone still have the SH4's Message_WE.cfg? I need it to compare to the SH5

That's what the file you refered to is for!
As a test?
Just rename part of that file and see what happens.
Rename MC_CR_SO_30_A
to MC_CR_SO_30_B
then run the Game.
Most likely?
You'll CTD when it calls for a file that's not there.

If you don't try things like this?
You'll get nowhere faster then you can imagine!

I am afraid that what you want to do is not possible with the stock tools in SH5. It may be possible via scripting, but that may just be a bit over the top for that matter. Maybe there will be a way in a few weeks...

Affirmative, maybe it's time to stop cranking my nerve trying to figure this out
