Help Please

Post by Lumpous »

1) Does HLDJ launch the game correctly for you?
Yes, Team Forttress 2 to be exact.
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"?
Host_WriteConfiguration: Wrote cfg/hldj_cmd_d.cfg
Loaded : hldj_next

4) After creating your own local server and enabling playing of audio files:
4-a) Load one of the sample audio files and perform a search of your Steam directory (without stopping HLDJ) for the file "voice_input.wav" - does it show up, and if so, where?

It's located within steam apps/my user name/team fortress 2.
4-b) If it exists, open it in an audio player: does it sound like the audio file you loaded?
Yes, it plays the song I had queued.
4-c) If it exists, return to the game, and enter the following into console:
CODE: SELECT ALL
voice_inputfromfile 1; voice_loopback 1; voice_forcemicrecord 0; voice_modenable 1; voice_enable 1; +voicerecord
Does the audio file start to play?

Unknown command "CODE"
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? *
If by works, you mean I can hear myself talking while one of my tracks should be playing, yes.

To be clear, the first series of audio I did STILL work. I did some more audio after the first series I did, I was confused at to what I did wrong, and reading the manual again, I realized I hadn't put my second series of audio to 16-bit sampling, which I then rectified, hoping my problems would be solved, but no, only the first series are still working. when I press my play key for a track from the second series, I can speak and hear myself.

EDIT: Correction, I cannot hear myself speaking during the second series of tracks.

Make sure to clear any ID3/metadata during the conversion/export process. Alternatively the built-in HLDJ converter will take care of this for you.
