Failed to load sound / missing from disk/repository
Sorry if this is a known issue but I've been distant lately.
For some reason most sound files from my TF2 servers that worked for years now stopped working a few weeks ago. PHP Code:
I've been doing this for long enough but such problem is completely new to me. The files are where they should and can be played except through the game. I tried to play it on the client console directly but it doesn't work either. Code:
] play custom\soundclip.mp3 Tried to download the files again from 2 different servers with sv_pure 0 and -1. It didn't fix it. Then I copied the files directly from the sv_downloadurl repository to my tf directory. It did not work either. This is where I get really confused. The only file that works is a clip that I uploaded a few days ago. Someone please tell me what is going on ? Thanks! |

Now I renamed the folder of the sounds and everything works fine. I'm very very confused.
I'll have to make the clients download it all over again for a reason I dont even understand. |
Re: Failed to load sound / missing from disk/repository
ya, the custom folder is special in tf2:
custom\<Random folder name here>\<folder name that matches exactly as if it was in the tf folder(eg the sounds folder>\<path to destination>\<file name here> |
Re: Failed to load sound / missing from disk/repository
Sorry, my actual folder isn't named "custom", it's "mgaming" but if I rename it to something else it works. It always worked, why would this folder be special now ?
EDIT: Apparently it doesn't play after re-downloaded from the server with a different name. |
Re: Failed to load sound / missing from disk/repository
what he means is, client side, it's not enough to put it in ur tf2 folder; after steampipe, all the custom shit goes into /custom/<some custom name folder>/<whatever structure you would have in ur main tf2 folder>
eg: /custom/_my_custom_shit/sounds/rtksounds/soundclip.mp3 if you would have that fodler and that file on ur server and u want to put them manually; if not then after server download they would automatically go in: /download/sounds/rtksounds/soundclip.mp3 |
Re: Failed to load sound / missing from disk/repository
here's my folder structure for a custom hitsound I'm using(I just placed it with pvhud):
/home/wildcard65/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/Team Fortress 2/tf/custom/pvhud/sound/ui/hitsound.wav |
Re: Failed to load sound / missing from disk/repository
I dont think we're talking about the same thing.
I've been doing this for quite a while and know where to put things. This has worked for long after steampipe, it just stopped working earlier this year! I believe due to some update because I haven't changed anything. Let me try to explain again: None of several sound clips inside a specific folder play when downloaded from the server, even after renaming the folder, making the clients re-download it again to a new directory. Other folders seem to play just fine, like saxton_hale\* By play I mean using the "play" command client-side. (The plugin uses ClientCommand()) It doesn't seem this is related with sv_pure. I dont understand why this particular folder is the only whose sounds dont play, even after renaming and re-downloading. It has more than 100 mp3 files inside, could that be it ? Any idea ? |
Re: Failed to load sound / missing from disk/repository
I tried again and now some files play, others dont.
I have no clue what the hell is going on. I now have the feeling that files downloaded when the server has sv_pure 2 get somehow "corrupted" and will never play. Othewise, if downloaded with sv_pure -1 they only play sometimes. This is really strange. |

To allow players use some custom skins and to use server custom files, use sv_pure 1 + ...cfg/pure_server_whitelist.txt sv_pure 0 again limit is small, restrict players to use player and weapons world view skins and models. But they can use material "cheats" however sv_pure -1 disable, you should not run server like this. Players can use very easy material "cheats" About your sound problem, are those files wav or mp3 ? And which plugin play those ? *edit https://forums.alliedmods.net/showpo...7&postcount=12 if you are sure, you did download that file and found from your game files. type in your own game console snd_restart to try reload it. |
