[neok182]

yeah just as it say how do you do this. I have a sound file i ripped off of youtube and i want to add it to a weapon (no release, just for myself)

 

So how do i add it. thanks in advance.

in geck, scroll in the objects list down to the catagory called 'Sounds'. When you click it youll see a massive list of sounds.

 

The easiest way to add a gun sound is to, in that list, scroll down, edit an existing gun sound (will be called WPNRifleSomethingFire3d etc)

Then rename it, point it towards your new sound, hit Save, 'create new form id'

 

then in your weapon, go to the art & sound tab and click the button for Firing sound and hook it up.

Note that most guns have a 2d and 3d version of the sound which im guessing is for closerange and longrange since some weapons sound different from different ranges, not even sure if fallout uses this, but it supports it.

Other games have similar setups for weapon sounds too like Halo and Bf2142.

 

Just remember that your actual sound file (.WAV) should be located somewhere in data/sounds/fx/ folder structure.
