how to turn sound to 3D sound?

[69stehend]

is it possible to turn a non 3D sound to a 3D one?
(i want to use a .wav from SC1 in WC3, but its not 3D)

EDIT: actually the sound does fade with increasing distance (as its supposed to be)
the problem is just, that the sound cant be played multiply at the same time

EDIT:
current results:
when the sound is imported as .wav, the 3D-flag cant be selected
when the sound is imported as .mp3, the 3D-flag can be selected, but then the sound doesn't play at all

Yes.

Check the "3D sound" flag in the sound editor.

In wc3, 3D sounds are basically just sounds that reduce in volume based on the distance between its position on the map and the player's current view.

i found that flag allready, but its not selectable and i dont know why

 

[rulerofiron99]

You have to change the sound's channel. General should work, just trying it with an mp3.

 

[69stehend]

i tried different channels (channel "fight" or "battle" or w.e. its called in english, for example), but that didnt change anything

Upload the sound so I can see if I can get it to work.

here.
it actually was a .wav data, but i converted it 'cause hiveworkshop told me, .wav was an invalid file.

 

[rulerofiron99]

Imported it as-is, and my 3D flag isn't greyed out. Going to test if it works ingame.

 

[69stehend]

i allready tested with the 3D flag on, and for some reason the sound didnt play then at all

 

[rulerofiron99]

Yeah I'm getting the same result.

 

[69stehend]

anyone else knows a solution?

Yes, here's the map. I changed the mp3 to a wav and works perfect.
mp3 seems to not work.

 

[69stehend]

it absolutely does not work perfectly, cause theres still the problem that the sound doesnt play multiply at the same time
as far as you i got allready, as written in the first post

 

[Anvil]

You want to play the sound more than once at the same time?
I think does not support more than one sound triggered, there is a tutorial to play multiple sounds at once with jass here on hive if i'm not wrong.

Mmm attached another map... Something like this?

PS: I don't know if this can cause lag over use it: P, the waits are not necessary, are only for testing.

 

[69stehend]

overwriting "native" sounds works properly indeed, but i would do it with special effects instead of units, cause units leak
and thx for the hint about that jass tutorial, i'll try to find it
but if it doesn't work triggerwise, then i'll do it by overwriting native sounds, like in ur map

here is the jass sound library, it was not here in the hive. This is the help section, so I don't think it's wrong to give you the link.

 

[69stehend]

it is here on hive, found it allready^^
