| I've been trying to play a 3D audio sample on demand in my new mod, but unfortunately, it is affecting the sound in the game in a strange way. Here is the code loading the sample: self.crossingSound = SoundUtil.loadSample(self.xmlFile, {}, "placeable.sounds.crossing", nil, self.baseDirectory, self.nodeId); This is the XML entry: <sounds> <crossing file="sounds/trainCrossingBell.wav" indoorVolumeFactor="0.55" pitchOffset="1" volume3D="0.45" innerRadius="10" radius="50" /> </sounds> There are no errors in the log beforehand. I commented all 'SoundUtil.play/stop3DSample()" for debugging, the loading is the only sound reference in my mod. The process is as follows: I start an engine to ensure I have sound. I place the mod (placeable) I tab around through some vehicles After a few vehicles, I get the following errors in my log: Warning (Script): Unknown entity id 85021 in method 'getVisibility'. LUA call stack: dataS/scripts/utils/SoundUtil.lua (147) : getVisibility dataS/scripts/vehicles/specializations/Steerable.lua (475) : onCameraSwitched dataS/scripts/vehicles/VehicleLeaveEvent.lua (56) : leaveVehicle dataS/scripts/network/Connection.lua (77) : run dataS/scripts/BaseMission.lua (2345) : sendEvent dataS/scripts/FSBaseMission.lua (3783) : onEnterVehicle dataS/scripts/vehicles/VehicleEnterResponseEvent.lua (72) : onEnterVehicle dataS/scripts/network/Connection.lua (77) : run dataS/scripts/vehicles/VehicleEnterRequestEvent.lua (67) : sendEvent dataS/scripts/network/Connection.lua (77) : run dataS/scripts/BaseMission.lua (2338) : sendEvent dataS/scripts/BaseMission.lua (1387) : requestToEnterVehicle dataS/scripts/BaseMission.lua (1679) : toggleVehicle dataS/scripts/FSBaseMission.lua (2171) : update dataS/scripts/missions/mission00.lua (333) : update dataS/scripts/main.lua (1876) : update Does anyone know what on earth is going on here? Also, bonus question, why is the SoundUtil not on the GDN? Is it too recent to publish? EDIT i've switched over to adding the audio in the Giants Editor, and switching it on and off by settings its visibility. Works just fine. The issue now, however, is that when I call "g_gui:showGui('')", my game goes silent again. I'm absolutely flabbergasted, why would a GUI call affect audio? Am I doing something terribly wrong? |

| Hi, hmmmm, the error message might indicate that a sample hasn't been deleted correctly. In any case it might be worth to check if "self.crossingSound" is a valid table and if some values have been added to it. Cheers, Emil |

| Aha! I just got a suspicion! As I mentioned after my edit, I found out that calling g_gui:showGui('') was causing this, and I now know why, or at least I think so. The GUI I'm closing by calling that, is the shop screen, or more specifically, the placement screen. These block audio, as most of us know, so I'm guessing this isn't properly canceled when calling g_gui:showGui(''). Is there a better way to close those GUIs? Tim PS. The reason for that first error was indeed the improper deleting of a sample, I loaded the sample in the load function of a placeable, and didn't do anything to it in the delete function, so that caused it. |
