Custom Hero Voices help

[DeathNaga]

Hi Everyone It's me DeathNaga I have a little problem which needs solving I've made custom hero voices for my campaign. I've done everything to make it work I've made the sound format wav. I've imported the sounds to replace an in-game soundset but when I select the unit with the custom soundset no sound is played and the portrait does nothing can anyone help me? I'm attaching a test map with the custom soundsets below oh yeah just so you know the custom soundsets i've got that don't work are the Lich King's and Garrosh Hellscream's.

Be sure to replace the import path of the sound to the sound you want to replace so it will work.

I have but it's still not working maybe it's to to with the fact that they aren't 3d sounds?

You should try Mp3 sound and also I cant open the map you have attached. It doesnt show up when I am opening map.

hmm try this version of the map and you have to use the wav. format to replace a sound to make a custom soundset. a mp3 file doesn't work. thats my problem is there anyway you can make the sounds on the map 3d?

Hmm, it is really weird that it works in the World Editor but not in game but I do sure notice something... Why is Grom's sound Shandris and Arthas' sound is Grom? I suggest doing it like this delete imports again and go for Grom's Sounset. You will see it right? Now Right click each Grom's sound and click Replace Internal Sound and then choose the appropriate sound for that. Do that For Arthas too. That might make also the sound work properly now!

And I think theere is no need of making it 3D if you ask me.

Well I tried that but it still didn't work and the reason that i put Grom's soundset on arthas was because I couldn't be bothered creating all the sounds to replace arthas' soundset and the same with garrosh and have you got the latest patch? if you don't then maybe thats why the map won't work but for me the test map works fine.

Oh yeah just to make it easier to look a the sounds I'm attaching them below maybe the sounds are corrupted?

They might be corrupted but it does play in your World Editor. Try removing them from the World Editor again. And follow a new step: Go to Grom's sounds then right click them all and Replace Internal Sound and replace it with the corresponding the sound.

I tried that before I created this thread and sorry about my late reply I've been doing a lot and haven't had time to check this Thread

The only option I have left is nothing and looks like the sound itself cannot be accepted into the game, try different sounds and see if they work. If yes, the problem is in your sound.

If the sound is 3d I think you need to uncheck that box in the sound settings. 3d sounds should only apply to sounds that are in the environment etc.

 

[Binsu]

Oh yes, also an option!

I know this is an old thread but I found it when i googled the same problem so here is the solution:

Replace unit sounds with MONO wav files or they will not work.
