JoKelly Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 (edited) you need to open geck, look in the object window for Audio... then click on sound, move to the right window, right click and select new, click on add sound file. adust attenuation distance, check stock sounds for a good idea on how to set them. flag Mute when submerged then ok. you can check stock sounds for other flags and settings as well. if your sound is a dialogue then flag dialogue sound. if your file is a 16 bit mono channel sound wave you can click play and hear it in the GECK. no other file type plays, its a geck thing. Thats all I remember off the top of my head sorry and having a pointy head I comb my hair and wear a hat so no one notices.

WastelandMarine1775 Posted December 21, 2016 Author Share Posted December 21, 2016 So when the sounds are just silent in-game what do I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoKelly Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 (edited) I should have said no other file type plays in GECK. Now in game it could be several reasons, from no activator to the wrong format. Some people have claimed that they got standard MP3's to work in game, while others say they don't work. what's worked for me so far , are 16 bit 44100hz sample, mono wav files. using a sound in game can be as simple as clicking on the speaker looking icon of your file in the right hand window and dragging it into the cell. when you made the sound object, down at the bottom are two sliders one for starting the sound and the other for ending the sound. you can set up ambient noises for your cell, exterior or interior just by dropping the sound object into the cell, with set times to fire off and stop. there are people who know this stuff far better than I do. Hopefully they will chime in soon. Edited December 21, 2016 by JoKelly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoKelly Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 your welcome, I may have stayed in a holiday Inn express once but I am no expert, so hunt around for more and better answers if a more knowledgeable person doesn't put in an appearance.

dubiousintent Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Added some additional information researched on this matter to the "Music and Sounds" section of the "Getting started creating mods using GECK" article. If you aren't getting any sounds at all (separate from music), try: 1. Go to Start -> Run -- type in dxdiag and hit OK.2. Click the "Sound" tab and then click "Test DirectSound" and allow all of the tests to complete.3. If any errors occur, use the slider to turn off Hardware Sound Acceleration by dragging it all the way to the left so it's labeled as "No Acceleration" -Dubious- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone help? sorry I was dismissive about your request ... but do need some clarity on what you want ? Are you wanting to replace vanilla sounds ... or are they for additional content ?
