Hldj plays sound from mic. voice_input.wav is present

Post by NowhereMan »

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"?

Code: Select all

 Host_WriteConfiguration: Wrote cfg/hldj_cmd_g.cfg
Loaded : sample_src
4-a) 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? yes. C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\xxxnowhere_man\team fortress 2
4-b) If it exists, open it in an audio player: does it sound like the audio file you loaded? yes
4-c) If it exists, return to the game, and enter the following into console: did not work
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

I don't understand what the problem is. It used to work fine up until the saxxy awards update

For most Source games, such as Team Fortress 2 and Counter-Strike: Source, you will need to test on a server that allows playing of audio files, in console: "sv_allow_voice_from_file 1" and ""sv_use_steam_voice 0".

That's not the problem. It works on no servers at all, not even servers that allow playing audio files.

Like your own, with those above variables set to the values?

If something stopped working after the update you can bet it was the update. Other than that, everything else appears to be fine.

After inputting the commands on a self-made server, HLDJ worked on css. I had all of the exact same answers to the required questions as the OP, and it worked perfectly; I only have one question: does this mean that all servers would need to be set this way for HLDJ to be useable? If so, is there any solution being worked on so that this wouldn't be required (a lot of admins probably wouldn't be willing to do it just so you can play sounds/music as it has a negative connotation [spammers ruined it])?
