Title: I made a walk sound but it won't play
Post by: FlyingGrass on March 06, 2019, 02:24:14 pm

I put an MP3 file I created(Played it on a keyboard) into FeralHeart's sound folder, and it is named walk_grass, but there isn't any sound where that new file should play(When I walk it's silent), it didn't break the normal walk sound though. This is not a very urgent issue at all, as I play FH with sounds off most of the time.
What could be causing a sound file to not work?

Hello!

Have you replaced the walking sound completely? If you do have the original sound file in there then it with contradict each other. Also, make sure that you do keep a backup of the original just in case. :-)

Also, if you click it on your computer through the files (FeralHeart>Media>Sounds) does it still play? There could be an issue with the conversion from keyboard to computer to proper sound file for FH. It should be a .wav and not a .mp3 or .mp4.

I hope this helps!

Other than what Spicy already said, I wonder if the sound length has anything to do with it. When I open up walk_grass, I noticed that the sound is only roughly a second long. How long is the sound you tried adding?

I haven't looked, but I believe your audio must be in mono (one channel only). This is a requirement for spatialized audio (playing sounds in a 3D environment).
