I've seen that happen with trigger brushes. If there are two brushes and both are turned into one trigger_multiple, the game sees the area between them as part of a single trigger.

Most likely, the same is happening with your rain brushes.

That is a very good point!! Make sure all your rain brushes are seperate entities!

YEAH now my baby is working again!!

The sound of the rain wont work...

Im using a sound_speaker

Targetname is rain_speaker1

My SCR file says: $rain_speaker1 loopsound rain_ext

Does it have to be inside the rain brush too?

"rain_ext" only works in singleplayer. You will need a sound work around like this.

local.master = spawn ScriptMaster
local.master aliascache rain_ext sound/amb/Amb_RainExt_01.wav soundparms 1.0 0.0 1.0 0.0 3000 6000 auto loaded maps "m dm moh obj "

It goes in the "main:" thread, just below the setcvar lines, in your script. The speaker (using this sound alias) has a range of 3000 grid units in all directions, but it fades as you walk from 3000 to 6000 where it cuts off. So, the best place is probably the center of the map.

So that will be something like this:

I jyst tried this way but could not hear any rain, or maybe I misunderstood

main:

// set scoreboard messages
setcvar "g_obj_alliedtext1" "DIE"
setcvar "g_obj_alliedtext2" ""
setcvar "g_obj_alliedtext3" ""
setcvar "g_obj_axistext1" ""
setcvar "g_obj_axistext2" ""
setcvar "g_obj_axistext3" ""

setcvar "g_scoreboardpic" "none"

local.master = spawn ScriptMaster
local.master aliascache rain_ext sound/amb/Amb_RainExt_01.wav soundparms 1.0 0.0 1.0 0.0 3000 6000 auto loaded maps "m dm moh obj "

level waitTill prespawn

//*** Precache Dm Stuff
exec global/DMprecache.scr.............

[tltrude]

Yes, that looks right. But, I have seen that sounds sometime need a short wait before being loaded. You can do that with a thread to start the sound.

main:

// set scoreboard messages
setcvar "g_obj_alliedtext1" "DIE"
setcvar "g_obj_alliedtext2" ""
setcvar "g_obj_alliedtext3" ""
setcvar "g_obj_axistext1" ""
setcvar "g_obj_axistext2" ""
setcvar "g_obj_axistext3" ""

setcvar "g_scoreboardpic" "none"

local.master = spawn ScriptMaster
local.master aliascache rain_ext sound/amb/Amb_RainExt_01.wav soundparms 1.0 0.0 1.0 0.0 3000 6000 auto loaded maps "m dm moh obj "

level waitTill prespawn

//*** Precache Dm Stuff
exec global/DMprecache.scr

//etc...

thread start_sounds

level waitTill spawn

end

start_sounds:

wait 1
$rain_speaker1 loopsound rain_ext

end

It might also be a good Idea to change the name of the sound from "rain_ext" to "rain_snd" in both the work around and the sound starting thread.

[Liberator]

Im confused now. I can't make it work...

Have a look at this:
(Can you correct it for me, please )

// Small Hills

setcvar "g_obj_axistext2" ""
setcvar "g_obj_axistext3" ""

setcvar "g_scoreboardpic" "none"

local.master = spawn ScriptMaster
local.master aliascache rain_ext sound/amb/Amb_RainExt_01.wav soundparms 1.0 0.0 1.0 0.0 3000 6000 auto loaded maps "m dm moh obj "

level waitTill prespawn

As I said before, not all the sound alias lines in the ubersound script work in multiplayer. If a line doesn't have "dm obj" at the end, it wont work -- that when you need to add it to the work around. I added all the "rain_" ones you listed to the work around and then changed thier names a little.

All you sound looping lines are now in the start sound thread.

Your script now has three threads (main, puddle, and start_sounds). Notice how the tabs make it easier to see them?

No...still no sound... and now i'm running into some kind of "pockets" on the map where there is no gunfire, reloading or step sounds...pretty strange
