Title: Missing objects?
Post by: SilverCat on March 24, 2016, 01:02:47 pm

Yo~

I make maps every now and then, have done it for a couple of years now. Though, I still bump into problems in which I can't wrap my mind around.

Currently, I'm trying out sound objects. Though, no matter how many times I delete the exported map file and re-export the map, the sound objects I made seem to be gone.

What I mean is that the meshes I've bound sound to, won't appear in my exported map. Which is odd, because in the Map maker, they're there and they all play their sounds perfectly.

Another odd thing is that they do appear and work for some of those who download my map, although the sound is dimmed and sometimes only appear when they run.

I will add that in the beginning I managed to mess up my game, by moving the files of the map back and forth without copying them. Ending up with breaking them. I fixed it by downloading a backup version of Fh and deleting the broken files, so perhaps this is one of the reasons why my sound objects won't work as they should?

Do any of you know how to fix this?

I've never heard of this happening, but perhaps after
exporting the sounds, try moving the .fho's and/or .mp3's (or whatever file they export as) to your
my_objects, and have your members do the same.

If that doesn't work, maybe they just aren't exporting correctly. Try COPYING the meshes
to your exports folder (the actual .mesh and everything).

This is all I can think of that might fix the solution. Worth a try!

M'advice would be to head to y'er Object Maker and re-export the objects from there. Once that is done, go into y'er Map Maker and export and save y'er map. It may be b'cause ye didn't export the objects after ye edited them to play sound and, therefore, they don't show the updated versions of the objects or they don't show at all b'cause ye changed their placement in the FH files and FH cannot find them.
