HLDJ Problem

Post by MusicMan »

Ok so I know you helped me once but I messed up on my other topic. I have no voice_input in my garrysmod directory, and I've already redownloaded HLDJ about 5 times now. Could you possibly post the file as a download on the website in case something like this happens? I need to download that file seperately somehow

It's not a file to post, HLDJ generates it on the fly. Still need more information, read the sticky. Also double check you downloaded alpha 7 or later

1) Does HLDJ launch the game correctly for you? Yes
2) Does "HLDJ Loaded Successfully" appear in console on starting the game (with no errors)? Yes
3) What is the console output after selecting a song, or issuing other HLDJ commands such as "hldj_next"?
] 3
Host_WriteConfiguration: Wrote cfg/hldj_cmd_b.cfg
Loaded : Black Sabbath War Pigs
4) After loading one of the sample audio files, perform a search of your Steam directory (without stopping HLDJ) for the file "voice_input.wav" - does it show up, and if so, where?Stean/steamapps/*Steam User*/garrysmod
5) Does voice normally work for you? If not, or you do not have a mic, have you remembered to set up any applicable options in your operating system and/or the game?Voice works perfectly fine for me
I'm using v 1.6.0.a10 64-Bit with a server which has v_allow_voice_from_file set to 1

possibly a conversion problem, test with the sample audio files and/or use the HLDJ audio converter.

Without using HLDJ at all, copy one of your audio files to the location where you saw voice_input.wav show up, and rename it to "voice_input.wav". While in-game, enter into console:

Code: Select all

voice_modenable 1; voice_forcemicrecord 0; voice_inputfromfile 1; voice_loopback 1; +voicerecord
Does it start playback? If not, then there is a problem with the game, either it is disabled and/or some cvars may need adjusting. If it does play, then try HLDJ again, but this time open voice_input.wav after it is created to see if it is a valid file and what you expected.
