a fail tips ?

Post by Fr33m@n »

Hi,

With tf2, I tried the hldj audio converter, for each song played i get a crash. I used the audacity method. It work well but the quality is not really good.

I tried this tips (http://hldj.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=240) and also dbPoweramp thing.
The song is played too fast and i get a crash at the end if the song is fully played.

Why ? Thanks for the help.

Are you sure you selected the correct engine when you used the converter? For TF2, you should select Source and not GoldSrc.
As a side-note, I should tell you now: the sound quality will never be particularly good, no matter what you do, because the source engine's voice system is limited that way. This isn't HLDJs fault, or Audacity's fault. If anything, it's Valve's fault, but they had good reasons for it.

Strange. sometimes the converted music work (yesterday) but today the exactly same file are played too fast and lead to a crash at the end of the sound.

Why ?

If you are still experiencing problems, please include the following diagnostics in your help request:
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)?
--> HLDJ loaded - some files could not be written ( 1 error )
3) What is the console output after selecting a song, or issuing other HLDJ commands such as "hldj_next"?
--> Host_WriteConfiguration: Wrote cfg/hldj_cmd_b.cfg
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?
--> in team fortress 2
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? *
--> yes
