Hi People,
I am sorry but I have posted similar problem before without receiving any solution so am trying again.

Why does decal sounds like fire, steam, etc appear all over the game? Is there any way to make those sounds heard when you are near that decal?

Thanks in advance

You need to have a 3D sound command in script for the sound to fade out at distance much as in real life. The command is listed in the manual and you can check an eitities script file to see if a correct 3D sound command is indicated. It should be the default.

Alternatively you could activate and deactivate or remove the entity from a game relative to player proximity.

First option might be the easiest for you.

Thanks Uman. I tried something. I couldnt understand the 3dsound command and how to use it but tried to customize the decal.fpi script and repeatsound.fpi. Here is the snippet. Can you or someone check it for me please and tell me where I am going wrong?

Decal.fpi


Sound.fpi


Thanks

You might also check the sound script you are using.
Repeatsound.fpi and repeatsound2.fpi loop whatever sound that is made until the end of the level instead of just playing it once.
Decals might also work differently if you change the appear AI script from repeatsound or repeatsound2 to one of the appear AI scripts.
As always,backup any files you plan on changing beforehand.
When I have made my own decals they appear whether I use the repeatsound scripts or the appear scripts but the stock ones might be a little more fussy.
You might check out the Particles tutorial in the Tutorial city thread in the models and media forum.
It will give you a beter idea of how decals work and what adjustments you might be able to make.

Thanks FredP. I read the tutorial and it mainly talks about creating your own. But how do I control the sound of decal?

I could make the decal appear when I get into certain distance, but cant make it disappear when I am beyond that distance.
