Adding XRsound to a new vessel

[gattispilot]

So I am trying to get sound to play.

I made a cfg for the vessel and am trying to hard code this in.
this is contents of the XRSound-EAGLE3UACSPASS
# Door [animation_1] OpenCloseSoundID = 12002 MovingSoundID = 12003 PlaybackType = BothViewClose Opening = XRSound\MOONBASEALPHA\doorclose.wav IsDoor = 1
in the scenario:
Eagle3PassengerUACS:EAGLE3UACSPASS

But nothing in the XRsound log showing that vessel.

So hard coding.

Get me this:
Severity Code Description Project Path File Line Suppression State
Error LNK2001 unresolved external symbol "public: static class XRSound * __cdecl XRSound::CreateInstance(class VESSEL *)" (?CreateInstance@XRSound@@SAPAV1@PAVVESSEL@@@Z) Eagle3PassUACS D:\Orbiter2016\Orbitersdk\samples\EagleUACSpass D:\Orbiter2016\Orbitersdk\samples\EagleUACSpass\EAGLE3UACSPASS.obj 1


If I add the Xrsound libarys I get another error:
Severity Code Description Project Path File Line Suppression State

This is the XRSOUND log:

[gattispilot]

Not sure what is going on. I added logging on the config. I hear sounds from other vessels. But with this vessel no sounds at all
@dbeachy1

 

[dbeachy1]

As a first step, please follow the steps detailed on page 8 of the XRSound User Manual -- it details exactly how to do this. It's important that you follow all the steps exactly, including enabling trace logging in XRSound during development and testing.

 

[gattispilot]

So I followed the changes in the xrsound.cfg.
but when I run the scenario and do some animation. no sounds.
But the log shows no sound vessels.

[gattispilot]

No clue why this vessel does not have sound. Nothing in the sound log.
I just copied the xrsound-deltaglider.cfg file and renamed it:
XRsound_Eagle3PassengerUACS.cfg

but don't hear any sounds.
I ran a delta glider scn and heard the noises. And add the eagle pass and no noises. and nothing in the log????

 

[gattispilot]

Should the cfg be the vessel name or Vessel class?

The reason I ask. Is I added this: Eagle3:EAGLE3UACS and even though no cfg I heard sounds?
log:
02.02.2024 05:12:29.629 - [Eagle3][50.046] >> LogVesselAnimations: [EAGLE3UACS][animation ID = 15, state = Closed]

02.02.2024 05:12:29.732 - [Eagle3][50.150] >> LogVesselAnimations: [EAGLE3UACS][animation ID = 15, state = Moving]

But still no sounds for the Eaglepassenger

 

[gattispilot]

So confused. It the scenario is an EAgle3 and the passenger module.
I get sound on the Eagle but not the Passenger module.
But I open the door on the Passenger module NOT the eagle.
But the log looks like I am doing animation on the Eagle?

[gattispilot]

So confusing. I have no idea why some vessels have sound and some don't.
I loaded the MoonBase Alpha and no sounds but the UACS guys do. No mention of the MBA in the XRsound log. The 2 UACS guys are mentioned though

 

[gattispilot]

Now trying to hard code sound in. Follow the manual.
But I get this:
Severity Code Description Project Path File Line Suppression State

and in the H:

[dbeachy1]

Two points about this: first, regarding the configuration files approach, something is different between your vessel's XRSound configuration setup and what is detailed in the XRSound User Manual. Please follow all the steps in manual exactly, and compare your vessel's configuration setup to the default DeltaGlider's configuration setup to see what is different. Second, regarding the C++ linker error, that is a standard error when the linker settings in the vessel project are incorrect, so the linker can't find the XRSound library to link with. I recommend a good linker tutorial like this video -- once you understand what C++ linking does, you will know to solve errors like this and not have to guess about it.

 

[gattispilot]

Thanks. What I did on the cfg is took a delta glider one and renamed it to match the class.

 

[dbeachy1]

That won't work because the animation IDs are vessel-specific. This is why it's vital to follow all the steps detailed in the XRSound User Manual exactly, including reading the trace logging for your vessel and updating its XRSound configuration file to match. You can't just copy the sound configuration file for the DeltaGlider and use it for another vessel. It's vital to understand what the config settings do and what the trace logging means first, and the XRSound User Manual details that.

 

[gattispilot]

Ok. I will re look. I saw in the log the animation. So could one just remove any info regarding the animations. And watch the log and get the animation info

 

[gattispilot]

So I removed any of the cfg I made. And made changes to the log.

(If the file does not exist yet, copy an existing vessel’s cfg file as a template and then delete any existing settings in it before defining new ones.)

I hear no sounds until the astronaut is created.

in the log the guy is mentioned as:

[gattispilot]

I removed XRsound and made the changes to the log.
BUt the astronaut I get sound but the Eagle passenger module is not even mentioned in the log:

[gattispilot]

So I can't XRsound added into a vessel and can't get orbitersound5.0 into a vessel.
