Playing custom audio in a mission?

[-Ice]

Is it possible to play custom audio (voice recording) in a mission? ie once the aircraft enters a trigger zone the audio will play, or once an enemy group is defeated, an audio will play.

 

How is this done? What programs will be needed to do this?

 

Thanks!

You just need an audio file. You can create one with audacity or windows voice recorder with a microphone to record yourself. You can also use Text to Speech websites that allow you to create your own message and have a text to speech bot speak the text.

Roger, but how to insert them into missions?

You need to save the audio files into a location (I'd reccomend with the install location somewhere, then in it's own folder for each mission, so you don't get files from different missions confused.)

 

Then in the triggers part of the ME you need to set something like "When enter trigger area play sound/audio file" Then just set the file location as the variable.

Ah, got it thanks! Now for some experimenting...

Once you save the mission the first time it will save the audio files with it. If you unzip the file you will see them all.

make them small... preferably .ogg format, mono and low quality. If you record high quality audio, it will take a long time to load up... extremely long on multiplayer.

 

audacity has an option in the recording tracks (on the right side) to make these changes for each track in your total audio "project" as audacity calls it.
