Speaker using vis_leafgroups - tltrude tut

i made a speaker inside a building and covered everything else with vis_leafgroup.
when i load the map the speaker doesnt work, but if i type 'restart' in console it starts working.
so what i am asking is why does the speaker only starts working after a restart?

I have seen this before, and I think it is a bug in the game. Try adding a delay before the sound begins playing.
level waittill prespawn
Thread start_sounds
end

start_sounds:

i copied the start_sounds thread from the tutorial readme and it alreayd includes the 'wait 1' command.
maybe i need a ubersound file like in the ubersound workaround tut?

Maybe starting the sound after level waittill spawn will work.

Are you sure you have the vis_leafgroups correct? They must be correct if it works on restart. You can also try increasing the wait time in the thread.
This is for Mohaa and not spearhead, right?

the things u suggested didnt worked, even tried taking off the 'wait' command.
its Spearhead, not Mohaa.
by the way, do u know any radio entities i can use?
mohaa

Try it in mohaa and see if you still have the problem. The ubersound work around has always had problems in Spearhead. You will have to make a custom ubersound script like the one Spearhead uses. I can't help with that because I don't have SH installed, but it has been discussed in the forum before.

Btw, You can also pick a sound alias that works, in multiplayer--without a work around. Although in your case, YOu might want to find one in the spearhead ubersound script.

ok i fixed the problem.
heres the ubersound code i used:
Code: Select all
//
//UBERSOUND file
settiki none
aliascache team_snd sound/music/Amb_team1.mp3 soundparms 3.0 0.0 1.0 0.0 600 10000 auto loaded maps "dm moh obj train"
aliascache zero_snd sound/music/Amb_zero1.mp3 soundparms 3.0 0.0 1.0 0.0 600 10000 auto loaded maps "dm moh obj train"
end
thx for all the help
