Bahger Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 (edited) This is a great addition but am I correct in my understanding that it's for sound files only? I wanted to use it as a placeholder by putting text in the "Subtitle" field before uploading the sound file but the text didn't show up in the mission when triggered. I'm assuming that's because only when I've uploaded a sound file will the associated text subtitle show up. No sound file, no text. Is this correct? Many thanks. Edited March 9, 2013 by Bahger
Quirkitized Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 I've only had it work by adding a sound file. However, have you tried making a 'blank' sound file, so you can trigger the text without people actually hearing anything?
Bahger Posted March 9, 2013 Author Posted March 9, 2013 That's a great idea. Even better, I have a mic-key sound file somewhere, I'll use that. Rather than make temp triggers for text messages that I will eventually replace with sound files, I figured I'd make the "final" triggers and insert text as placeholders. Using a waypoint trigger is much more precise and effortless than making a trigger zone.
Bahger Posted March 9, 2013 Author Posted March 9, 2013 Hmm, I don't think this function works for aircraft, just vehicles. makes sense, I guess, as an airplane might not hit a waypoint within the tolerance necessary to trigger the radio messages. Can anyone comment? I think I'm going to have to go back to trigger zones to output radio messages and/or text reliably.
