I ask because we have some short sounds and long sounds and don't want the same time to wait between using a new sound and don't want the sounds to be stacking on each other.

sm_saysoundhe_time_between_sounds is basically a minimum wait time. The sound info library extension will read the length of a sound and the saysounds plugin will use that length if it's greater than sm_saysoundhe_time_between_sounds.

Let me try to see if I understand. The sound info library extension will read the sound file and use the length of the sound before allowing to play another. The sm_saysoundhe_time_between_sounds is the maximum amount of time before you can play another sound even if the sound had ended a while back. If the sm_saysoundhe_time_between_sounds is a smaller time than the sound file itself, you can not play a sound until the sound file itself finishes.

Example 1:

Sound file is 10 seconds long.
sm_saysoundhe_time_between_sounds is set to "2".
The next sound can't be played even after 2 seconds until the first sound file finishes after 10 seconds.

If this is true, then there is something wrong I am doing. Currently I am testing with sm_saysoundhe_time_between_sounds at 2 and playing sounds that are longer than 2 seconds. I am able to stack sounds as a result. Is the sound library info extension not working properly for me? I would think the plugin wouldn't work at all if it wasn't.

It should work as described with custom sounds but it won't work with built in game sounds as the extension can't access files packed into a .vpk file.

Which is sadly a limitation of the MP3 reader being used... it can't be used on files that are in memory and it doesn't know how to open files that are inside other files.

Wouldn't it be great if Valve fixed their own sound length function so it actually worked?

They're custom sounds that go into the sound/misc folder. Is it possible for the extension to not work but the plugin does work? Because other than that I am at a loss why this is happening. Is there a way to test if the extension is working?

Edit:

Checked extensions with "sm exts"

"Automatic Updater" (1.4.7) by AlliedModders LLC: Updates SourceMod gamedata files
"Webternet" (1.4.7) by AlliedModders LLC: Extension for interacting with URLs
"Top Menus" (1.4.7) by AlliedModders: Creates sorted nested menus
"SDK Tools" (1.4.7) by AlliedModders LLC: Source SDK Tools
"BinTools" (1.4.7) by AlliedModders LLC: Low-level C/C++ Calling API
"GeoIP" (1.4.7) by AlliedModders LLC: Geographical IP information
"Client Preferences" (1.4.7) by AlliedModders: Saves client preference settings
"SQLite" (1.4.7) by AlliedModders LLC: SQLite Driver
"Sound Info Library" (1.0) by Berni: Access information of sound files

So it shows that it is there... augh I dunno ;; If I could manually put a delay between each sound after it is played before playing another I would at this point

I actually helped him with it. I won't know for sure if it works for him until he gets up tomorrow, but if anybody else has the same problem. Get the version from GitHub, it should work properly.

Can confirm this works! Not sure why the other one works but glad it did~

Any ideas on this one anyone? Still struggling to get it working.

Not sure what I'm doing wrong here. I installed it correctly. I added a sound from vpk and a few custom files and they work perfectly.

Problem is, the chat trigger won't show in chat only for me (rcon access) but does for everyone else. Also, I'm the only one that can't hear the songs.

Any ideas as to why?

mghtbgiant · 08-16-2013 , 16:07 Re: Say Sounds (including Hybrid Edition) (4.0.8)

Is there a file-size limitation on the config file/number of sounds? I just got done adding a BUNCH and now it's not working. I realize there is a good chance I fat-fingered something and I'm scouring the config file now to see if there is a clerical error. However, I was wondering if there is a file-size limitation from anywhere.

How big is everyone else's config file? Mine is now (after this latest batch of sounds) a little over 27MB with close to 400 distinct sounds.

EDIT: as a follow-up, I just checked sm plugins list and Say Sounds is showing as running.
