I’m glad it was not me! I didn’t think I was wrong, but I definitely respect whom I was addressing and it was most likely I was not correct .. thanks again for your hard work making the abilities!

sound_precache should always include the theme, if you have any concerns about a sound being longer (as with my Painis Cupake's Next Live ability) then you can add that too, doesn't do anything bad at all.

mod_precache is only needed when gibs are activated with an ability.

I have updated my phrases to prevent text clipping, fixing the empty '%'s and optimizing some lines to be more clear.[see attachment]

I also sorted the Class Info list prioritally, because knowing that all your pistols deal minicrits is more important to know than that a Candy Cane drops health packs on hit, right?


And a reminder of something else free for grabs:

I can hear the sounds in game ( I think ) but its like it does not write the 3 wave files to the hard drive and you therefor keep downloading the 3 wave files each map change or server connect. Next, I manually created a war3source folder (in the correct spot) and rejoin the server, I redownload the 3 .wavs and still no joy. It's like the 3 wave files just download into memory and dont actually get written to the client hard drive. I have tested this on 2 seperate computers with an alt account now, if I manually put the 3 files where they need to be client side, then of course they dont keep downloading.. but we need to be able to force the installation

Hmm... Let's wait and see if the others is facing the same problem, its working perfectly fine on my side...

You should make the sound configurable if you can, if not then I will want to give it a shot.

++EDITED+++

Nah, I rather leave the default directory. I don't really like duplicate files on my PC and so is the players.

I can delete the local files and see how it behaves when connecting to your server. I am at 209.222.4.35:26000 Big Bang Gamers Freak Fortress 2 I dont think it is something stupid at my end, as the abilities do work. I can backchannel you ftp access if it would help. Let me know if I can do anything to help

I can't find the war3source folder nor the files in your downloadURL: 404 Not Found. The requested URL /redirects/tf2/sound/war3source/ does not exist.

Actually I had reminded myself to post this earlier but the r in source is actually missing from the bzip folder of the subplugin download link provided . There is a few other instances of these typos in some of the other downloads so remember to always double check path etc. I can't atm remember what ones though....sorry
