Renegade's Volume Script

[Aasokeo]

It says the script was made with HL commands, can anyone "convert" it to HL2? Or is there any alternative to such a useful script?

[Renegade]

It should work unaltered in HL2, all commands used in the script are the same in HL2. Let me know if it doesn't.

Hmm..I copypasted the script in its entirety into the HLDJ custom.cfg file (including the volume up/down binds), but they don't work in game. I even tried binding the two keys manually from the in-game console, but with no effect...

I'm not sure where I went wrong here..any ideas?

Remember that if you're using your keypad keys, NumLock needs to be on.

Well I can't remember a time when I had it off

This is what the cfg looks like..

Code: Select all

// Renegade's volume script
// set initial volume to 0.5 (or whatever you want)
volume 0.5

// set initial up/down aliases to 75/25 (or whatever you want)
alias game_volume_up vol_75
alias game_volume_down vol_25

// for each volume level, set a new volume, echo what the current level is,
// and specifiy which is the next level up and down.
alias vol_0 "volume 0.00; echo volume 0%; alias game_volume_up vol_25; alias game_volume_down vol_0"
alias vol_25 "volume 0.25; echo volume 25%; alias game_volume_up vol_50; alias game_volume_down vol_0"
alias vol_50 "volume 0.50; echo volume 50%; alias game_volume_up vol_75; alias game_volume_down vol_25"
alias vol_75 "volume 0.75; echo volume 75%; alias game_volume_up vol_100; alias game_volume_down vol_50"
alias vol_100 "volume 1.00; echo volume 100%; alias game_volume_up vol_100; alias game_volume_down vol_75"

// binds keypad up/down arrows to volume up/down
// set to whatever keys you want
bind KP_UPARROW game_volume_up
bind KP_DOWNARROW game_volume_down

As you can tell, i pretty much copy/pasted the same material from the other thread...unless I did something wrong

The only other thing I can think of is if an alias is being accidentally redefined elsewhere.
Try calling "game_volume_up" or "game_volume_down" directly from console to see if they perform as expected.
