Hello all !
How to make custom sound in Legend of Grimrock 2 ?
So, i create my audio file in OGG format. I create this script in sounds.lua
defineSound{
name = "introdungeon",
filename = "mod_assets/sounds/2007.ogg",
loop = false,
volume = 1.0,
}
But, when i reload my project, i have this message:
[string "SoundSystem.lua"] :0: Not a RIFF file.
Why ?

i suspect it expects a .wav file.
All ingame "sounds" are .wav and all "AmbientTracks" (ie music) is ogg.

I don't have the error message, now.

It's strange

Dungeon sounds need to be in WAV format, 16-bit 44.1Khz, mono. Do you have a sound converter to convert your OGG into the right format?

I convert mp3 to this format (Wav, 16-bit 44.1Khz, mono).
What is the script to have the sound in-game ?

Yes, but the editor don't find the sound :/
The script for play sound is:
playSound(sound) or playSoundAt(sound, level, x, y), right ? :/

Some of this is probably a repeat of what you already know, but to add a sound effect to the game, do this:
- Create your sound effect and make it a 16-bit 44.1Khz, mono .wav file and put it in your mod_assets\sounds directory under the dungeon you are editing.
- Edit your mod_assets\scripts\sounds.lua.
- Add the sound definition (see below) and save the file.
- In your script, use playSound("woodCollapse") (in my example below). The name you use to play the sound must match the name in the definition, including case.
- Trigger the script when you want the sound to play. That's all it takes!
Code: Select all
defineSound{
name = "woodCollapse",
filename = "mod_assets/sounds/woodCollapse.wav",
loop = false,
volume = 3,
minDistance = 1,
maxDistance = 1,
}
I hope this helps, -Lark

Thank you !
It's work !
My problem is, when i make this script: "playSound("woodCollapse")", i write a bad name of sound.
Big thank you Lark !
But, i have an other question:
In this script:
playSoundAt("introdungeon", 1, 12, 18), 1 = what ? Because, i can't write '0' (For H)

It's okay, i try this script :
function playCoolSound()
playSound("cool_sound")
end
And it work with an activator.
