Can I change out sound for an ability?
« on: »

I have an ability the Magna Mace from the Embermage Class that I really like the animation of the hammer swing - but the sound is lacking and I would like to replace the sound file with something more "dramatic" and impactful.

Anyone with any hints or tips or guides that can help me in making this happen?

Thanks!

Sorry its me again  :D

You can change any sound u like in the game. First, get the game to know about ur sound, then use the new sound's GUID in .LAYOUTs

Get it into the game:
- safest to use .wav files but .ogg works too
- define the sound. Open up any of those .DATs in MEDIA/SOUNDS/...  and u should readily see how its done, where to put the sound file, etc.
- like any other DAT make sure your sound has a unique GUID and NAME

Use it in the game:
- different usages will call the sound in different ways
- in skills, the layouts will call it by GUID (altho in GUTS u just select it from a dropdown
- animations call sounds directly from the .ANIMATION files of the model in question. See those [KEY] lines with like NAME:EFFORT in them? "Effort" is the NAME of that grunting sound your char makes and the anination is calling for them at certain frames.

Try it out and let us know if u need more inputs ;)

Edit - i think ima make this into a short tut with pics and stuff :D
