Metallic sound for metal doors

Post by wacko »

Hi
I made some doors with metal texture, so they shouldn't use the default sounds door_wood_open, door_wood_close.
I looked up the sounds I liked in the pk3s, entered in the Entity window:
key: sound_open value: DoorMetalClose_move3.
Did similar thing with sound_close, compiled it and...
...had to listen this wooden sound again :x

What was wrong :?: :?:

sound_open is the key for opening doors
sound_close is the key for closing doors
what is the key for doors stopping (there are sound-files for this...)

if all else fails you can put a trigger_use in front of the door and make it use what ever sound you want

In some cases you may have to modify "ubersound.scr" to get the sound to play with your map or game type.
