caedmon115 Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 I am making a mod and I am trying to make a new sound for my weapon when I equip it. but when i make my own sound file in the fallout nv G.E.C.K. and apply it to my weapon in its "art and sound" tab under the "equip sound" option, i can't get it to play the sound in the game, it is just dead silence. all the other vanilla sounds in the game are working just fine.the sound files i am using are in a 96,000Hz 16 bit mono.wav format. i am using WavPad sound editor masters edition to edit out some parts in the sound files i didn't want.Anyone have any suggestions or know how to fix this? this is also my first time using this forum so idk if i am posting this in the right place or not.

CarnivalOfFear Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Try messing with the sound format I know the game sometime only excepts certain sound formats. I had to mess with my audio clips to have them work in game correctly. I believe the format audacity uses on startup is the correct one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caedmon115 Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 i looked at all the formats and they are all the same as the ones i am using. also i try changing the format to different types and it still didnt work. i also tried replacing one of my files with one that i KNOW works (because it is a vanilla sound file for the mysterious magnum) and even it didnt work, so its gotta be somewhere in the G.E.C.K. that i am messing up but don know where.

TheDrunkenSoviet Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 The sound file must be a .wav and be in the sound folder of the new vegas directory, I made a mod not long ago witch changes all equip sounds.Its called Realistic Equip Sounds, check it out if you like.

caedmon115 Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 oh! ok. i had them in a .wav format already and they were in the fallout/data/sound. but then i looked at where your sound files were located in your mod and i didnt put them in the fx folder. i feel like an idiot now. thanks.
