Bell ring

[craiggbrown]

How did you guys get the bell ring on board the ships to be at the right time in PoTC Build Mod?

Did you use the Sound_Alias?

Have a look at the code in PROGRAM\BATTLE_INTERFACE\LogInterface.c from the PotC Build Mod; that's where the code is.
It's fairly complex-like though...

Thanks Pieter!

Oh well. I couldn't get the bell code to work in CoAS.

 

[craiggbrown]

Where can I find the code that tells the ambient noises to play in CoAS?

 

[craiggbrown]

Well. I got the bell to ring but I can't get the right interval. In CoAS, it uses intervals in seconds such as 1, 4, 40 and so on. But what I need is time such as 01:30 or 20:00. Any advice?

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Please bump this one in a couple of days to remind me to have a look at this when I'm back home.

 

[craiggbrown]

Will do. Thanks Pieter.

Hear is your bump Pieter.

I had to uninstall PoTC Build to make space for modding.Then I lost my computer so could you upload the bell sound for me?

I found this code in PROGRAM\Weather\WhrWeather.c:

			if(CheckAttribute(&locations[iCurLocation], "alwaysStorm"))
{
if (GetTime() >= 6.0 && GetTime() < 10.0) locations[iCurLocation].QuestlockWeather = "Storm01_add";
if (GetTime() >= 10.0 && GetTime() < 18.0) locations[iCurLocation].QuestlockWeather = "Storm02_add";
if (GetTime() >= 18.0 && GetTime() < 22.0) locations[iCurLocation].QuestlockWeather = "Storm03_add";
if (GetTime() >= 22.0 && GetTime() <= 23.99) locations[iCurLocation].QuestlockWeather = "Storm04_add";
if (GetTime() >= 0 && GetTime() < 6.0) locations[iCurLocation].QuestlockWeather = "Storm04_add";
if (CheckAttribute(&locations[iCurLocation], "alwaysStorm.WaveHeigh")) locations[iCurLocation].MaxWaveHeigh = 2.5; //óñòàíîâèì óðîâåíü âîäû
}

This suggests to me that GetTime() returns the present time in hours and decimals of an hour.
20:00 would be 20.0 while 01:30 would be 1.5 . Does that help?

Also, see attached for the sound files.

Thanks allot Pieter. I will give it a try.
