Still with me? I knew you could do it! SoundLevel ” (You typically won’t use these, at least I’ve never found a use for them.) Now let me warn you here, and make sure you know this: If you DON’T enclose every command and parameter in quotes. Now we need to add some controllers and settings. So for this I’ll be naming my sound: “ Explosion.LargeMetal_01“. When you name the entry try to keep is simple, I follow this setup: “ Type.Description_Number“. So if the sound it not working make sure you’ve only used one. First the restrictions, there can only be one “.” in the sound name. There are a few things that you need to keep in mind when you name your sound. Now time to create a sound entry in our new file. Once you’ve made the script make sure to place it in the proper location: GameGamefolderscripts Then append the newly created script file into the manifest. Pretty simple so far right? Good! Now lets make one from scratch! I’ll name my file game_sounds_tutorial.txt. “wave” “level/explode_1.wav” //Sound to be played, must be a WAV. It is basically how fast, and how far it falls off. “soundlevel” “SNDLVL_90db” //Sound level, this is used for sound attenuation. If it is not defined it will use the default. “pitch” “100” //Pitch of the sound, can be 0-255, 100 if default. “volume” “1” //Volume of the sound to be player, this is a value 0-1 and can be a decimal. If it is not defined it will use the default channel. “channel” “CHAN_STATIC” //Channel that the sound functions on. ”Tube.explode_1″ //Name of the sound entry This is what a completed sound script entry looks like: Now lets look at what a sound script entry looks like, I’ll be sure to break it down into it’s simplest form. “preload_file” “scripts/level_sounds_general.txt”Īs you can see it’s a rather simple file, all you do is copy an existing line and change the file that it points too.

“preload_file” “scripts/game_sounds_world.txt” “preload_file” “scripts/game_sounds_ambient_generic.txt” “preload_file” “scripts/game_sounds_weapons.txt” “preload_file” “scripts/game_sounds_physics.txt” The manifest tells that game what sound scripts to load into memory. You must have Half-Life 2 installed on your computer as well to receive the DLC content.Once you have a sound script you’ll have to add it to the manifest. The Half-Life 2 soundtrack will be downloaded to your computer as MP3 files. Atmospheric synthesizer pieces enhance key plot and exploration moments and reinforce feelings of adventure, isolation, or melancholy to the player. Energetic techno tracks tend to back significant battles. Half-Life 2 Full Soundtrack and original music from the game's directory.
