[Source 1] Hammer Tutorial V2 Series #22 "Complete Sound Implementation"

[@bigbillcz]

Even though you videos doesn't have extemely high views, I love your work. When you take so much time and passion to create those masterpieces of videos, you can be sure, that the mapping community will take you as their new god. Thanks a lot, grandmastro! :)

[@room___]

oh cool i'm an ambient_generic

[@Bordie3D]

ha!

[@iamakactus2588]

Thank you for continuing the series, i REALLY love your videos

[@Flutters_Shygal]

Well, I just rushed through many unclear tutorials on how to add exactly these files yesterday, only to realize that only one of my sounds worked in my portal map. Now I know why, thanks.

[@FullNelsonYT]

For anyone trying to get soundscapes working in 2022 for CS:GO, you have to name your soundscape script file as the name of your map. So if your map name is "de_pressed" then your soundscape script file should be named "soundscapes_de_pressed.txt"

[@Doglikespike12]

I really gotta commend you for this amazing tutorial. Not only is it very informative but it also gives me some nice ideas for my upcoming map. Keep em coming!

[@luckyduckydrivingschool3615]

Thumbs up. This video has so much more information that I needed to know than a lot of other tutorials about sound in Hammer.

[@WoNeYzWorld]

Finally I've been looking forward to your next tutorial! YEYEYEY!

[@KoD83]

putting the file into a subfolder was the solution to my problem... Thanks!

[@epk1187]

Thanks for this. I just got into mapping and your tutorials have helped me ALOT!

[@Cr381v3]

Add surround/stereo to sounds by adding "(" or ")" in front of wave file path. For example: ")weapons/m4a1/m4_shoot.wav". playrandom needs "(" and PlayLooping needs ")". This works with ambient_generic as well :) Now the sound will be panned left to right depending on where you look to simulate a location, not only distance like before. You're welcome

[@mcalla113]

Your videos have been helping me so much. The problem is, I have to translate and try to figure out the difference for hammer2. As I've been making hla maps. It's going well, with your help. But there are some things that are different enough, that I'm having a bitch of a time at some parts. Thanx for the great content.

[@Cr381v3]

if you're making a custom soundscape, the name must be "soundscapes_mapname.txt" (replace mapname with the name of your map). Otherwise it won't work in L4D2 at least.

[@MrLyosea]

Is it just me or does tophattwaffle sound like a robot in this particular video. lol

[@segster3923]

This was really helpful. Thanks!

[@TS_Mind_Swept]

I'll definitely be referencing this video many times in the future, but i still may need your help on it, if i do I'll let you know.

[@marcosmontanhes]

Thanks, dude. You are awesome.

[@SirKolass]

If you looking for soundscapes... 6:43

[@EASSimulation]

Hey man i know you prob wont answer me but anyway.. My custom looped sound first wont loop in the game (I did everything like you showed in tut) and when i leave the room and enter it again it wont play the sound. Any help??

[@Jojoateyt]

Yeah, easy to just copy and paste the soundscapes and just choose the one you want, until you find out Portal 2 has 421 choices. :P

[@PackSciences]

Awesome tutorial :)

[@GPWfiles]

When I add a soundscape it doesnt work and doesn't appear even when I use soundscape_debug command. What do I do?

[@Cr381v3]

the txt file must match the map name "soundscapes_mapname.txt"

[@lefrenchbaguette3782]

CS:GO won't let you play on official servers if you have a modified soundscapes_manifest.txt file though... Any way around this?

[@SirYodaJedi]

For anyone reading this 7 years later, use "soundscapes_mapname.txt" instead.

[@Ghht4tu]

Thank you

[@cheesecake4lyfe196]

If the sound won't change volume try using the raw version, otherwise it can be overwritten by the script file. Btw the cl_soundscape command crashed my game (valve pls fix)

[@bakunicorn]

thanks this is awesome!

[@BiddaMeanwater]

im trying to use soundscape triggers but instead all the sounds just play everywhere at once and don't stop

[@Banana360-]

help!! in my map I put two sounds on a loop and suddenly the game has no sound

[@BigBang1112tm]

Waiting on this tutorial 2 months :D

[@12q8]

For looping, I tried saving over my file, but that didn't seem to do the trick. I did *not* try to export (or save as) a new file, that might have worked. I instead went with another comment that said to use Goldwave which worked.

[@chaos4reason97]

how to make a sound play only in one area ? then end when you leave that area?

[@RingerDaClown]

Is it possible to activate a sound when the bomb blows?

[@zxopink]

i have sound (2 min) and the sound not looped can you help me?

[@tomix7866]

Yes

[@englishcountryballanimatio797]

Can someone tell me why when I run the audio it says "Invalid sample rate 48000 for 'mysounds/audio.wav'?

[@leplubodeslapin]

Amazing video as usual !! How do you include your custom sounrdscapes in your bsp ? I'm asking because i've already used a manifest file for particles in CS:S, and it was really hard to include it. Maybe it's easier on CS:GO now, maybe you just have to include it with pakrat but i don't think it will be that easy. Amazing job thank you very much for this tutorial, it will be very helpful :)

[@bensong8518]

+leplubodeslapin did you ever manage to figure out how to pack custom particles? I never got it to work for my CSGO maps and CSGO SDK is still awfully lacking in support for a particle editor and custom particles.

[@leplubodeslapin]

+Ben Song I found the method on CS:S a long time ago, i'm not 100% sure it's the same on CS:GO but i guess it is. It was quite hard to find the information, so i explained it here, I thought it might help people : forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2160641 Happy mapping

[@abnt_official]

Will typing snd_updateaudiocache after your final compile ensure that sounds will play for anyone who downloads your map from say, the workshop?

[@probes-arealone]

no

[@GingeyBoi57]

Very good tutorial but once you started getting to sound scripts nothing made sense to me

[@Eggbot2.0]

help, I successfully put the sound files into hammer and it worked in tf2 as well, but after deleting the sound files that I used (it was the mp3 version on desktop (I used wav versions for the sounds in game)) the music mysteriously disappeared in game, can someone help me?

[@spanishfly836]

could anyone help? i did the basic one where you just enter with a trigger and the sound plays and i tried it with my WAV file that i put into my sounds folder (which played perfectly when previewing in the sound name) but when i enter on gmod itself it turns off all the sound in the map and drops my fps by atleast 40

[@sirdapperdoodle_6166]

i know that you used CS:GO for importing custom sounds, but there is no folder to put it in for Gmod.

[@whatsupkazi]

It still needs how to change the linked sounds of objects

[@JohnDoe-gz2xe]

im fucking sick and tired of the stupid custom sounds not working!!!! i put it in the right god damn directory and it even plays in the preview in the editor and i keep getting this damn message [Sound] S_StartSound(): Failed to load sound 'mysounds adicalmeme2.wav'. File is missing from disk/repository. please help i have been up all day and all night for 2 days trying to get this to work

[@theRPGmaster]

Bump. Solution?

[@Grimsikk]

No matter what I do, I can't get my custom sounds to show up in the browser. I did everything you said the exact same. I'm using Hammer++ and trying to make a HL2 map. EDIT: For those that have this problem - Restart Hammer++. Resolved.

[@juhis5938]

I can't see the yellow circle

[@Azzlanoid]

If anyone still reads this do you know how to stop the music when you press ESC and pause the game? Literally NO ONE talks about this

[@idiotinium]

i cannot use snd_updateaudiocache and snd_rebuildaudiocache since gmod doesnt recognise them as real commands

[@halfwaylambda440]

that probably means that Gmod doesn't use an audio cache, and it loads all the wav files in real-time, so there's nothing to worry about

[@idiotinium]

@@halfwaylambda440 but the sound still doesnt play, in console it shows that there is a missong sound

[@jesperrasmussen2678]

I have tried this out with TF2 and the command: snd_updateaudiocache -does not seem to work, it write the command is unknown. Anybody else encountered this little problem? :)

[@stroyed4229]

Not all source games have an audio cache. Does the sound work?

[@jimmylander2089]

I just wanna make a sound repeat every 3 mins globally. Any idea how to do that? So far I couldn't make it work so pls someone help

[@TopHATTwaffle]

Ambient_generic with play everywhere flag enabled. Logic_timer with 180second refire time.

How to make your map look good

[@shorthouse06]

***** I assume he means how to correctly add detail brushes and props to your map to make it more interesting without distracting the player.

[@sulphurous2656]

Don't use the lighting from official maps because they aren't good presets

[@OhixSK]

How do you make npcs speak?

[@Alivebyte]

Well,actually for npc,you must have game sound script and scene (.VCD) file.Scenes for NPC made in Face Poser,which is available in Source SDK,or in bin folder of game you working on.

[@ileryon4019]

if I make masked NPC's?

[@angelwithoutwingsbutinstea4277]

All is working fine but the Sound is too silent.But its already on 10.This is with ALL of the sound
