How to play a custom sound effect?

[daskraut]

Hi, folks!

I'm absolutely new at anything. I'm currently creating my first map (and almost everything works beautifully!) and would like to play a custom sound "SHRO" (="i really should have russian overkill") when crossing a specific line.

I've imported a custom sound (shro.mp3) as demonstrated in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6WyKChcoYI and created SNDINFO just like the dude said. The entry in SNDINFO is "SHRO SHRO"

However, when i try to play it with a script which shall be executed when crossing a line (Action 80 - Script execute):

Code: Select all

script 3 (void)
{
    PlaySound(0,"SHRO");
}

I get the error message "Function playsound is used but not defined."

What am I doing wrong? How do I play the sound effect?

(I'm using Doom Builder 2.1.2.1553, Slade 3.1.1.5, GZDoom g3.1.0, format is "ZDoom (Doom in Hexen format)")

The ACC that's shipped with that version of Doom Builder is old. You need to update it. Download ACC from here. Extract the file's contents into:

Code: Select all

<Doom Builder's directory>/Compilers/ZDoom

Replacing the files in there.

Thank you very much, Blue Shadow, doing this solved my problem - the custom sound now plays as intended!

Did this and I still can't hear my sound effect what am I doing wrong?

#include "zcommon.acs"

script 1 (void)
{
PlaySound(0,"D_PAY");
}
