Code Footstep sound muted

[Ducky]

What would be your suggested route for that then? Sub-class the audio component class or another TWI class?

Nope. Use the InputSystemInit event of the ROPlayerController sub-class to execute the audio console command. That shoudl do the trick. I can give you an example later on when I'm back home.

an example would be awesome Ducky!

Tried it, but doesn't work either. It only disables my own footsteps. Guess you will have to figure out why you can't change the volume as you tried it before.

was thinking about this, would it just be easier to replace the actual sound file with say a blank file to get rid of the sound or an enchanced one to make it louder? That way the game would still read the file its looking for, though the file itself has been altered...

 

[Youg]

been altering the soundcues from within the SDK, though there's a lot so not sure whether its alter them all or just one/two of them, anyone have any input on anything like this?

It's not advisable to edit existing sound cues, instead, extract the sound files from the package (using such tools as OGG extract) and place them into a custom cue where you edit the sound levels and such, then create a mutator that uses these new sounds rather than the old ones.

will I need to have my own custom upk package for all the sounds then? and I'm guessing that I'll need to use the mutator to override the current sounds so it'll be an extension of ROPawn and each time that calls a particular sound the mutator would tell it to use the different ones from my custom package
