[No more sounds in Lua scripts]

No problem Pete, I'll do as you suggested, try reinstalling DirectX and eventualy Windows sound drivers.

However, reinstalling P3D (and add-ons) is not what i'm looking forward to. Especially because everything works great, except for the lua sounds.

Well, I will continue my quest and keep you informed if and when I find a solution.

Again, thanks for youre time and trouble!

Regards,

Paul

I forgot to update to your version of FSUIPC, version 4.859d, before I made the attempt. Sorry!

Just finished updating, started P3D and checked the log again:

[No more sounds in Lua scripts]

Hi Pete,

Finaly found some time after my vacation to Luxor,Egypt (and a few days of "The Curse of the Pharao") to renew my quest for the missing sound.

I did as you requested and added the lines

Debug=Please

LogExtras=x20

to the FSUIPC.ini file

I started P3D, waited until the aircraft was in 'Ready to fly" modus and then pressed the button to invoke the Soundtest.lua file. Still no sound.

Hereby the complete log file produced by FSUIPC up until that moment:

Pete,

The "CabinAlert.wav" file was put in the default \Prepar3D\Sound map by me for testing puposes.

As far as i can see the path to the sound map is correct, so is the sounddevice.

I have to pick this up when i return from my holyday.

Again thanks for the reply.

Kind regards,

Paul

[No more sounds in Lua scripts]

Hallo Pete,

Sorry for the long post but i have tried to attach the requested files, that didn't work, error: "You aren't permitted to upload this kind of file". So i just copy & paste everything.

I made a simple LUA script to test the sound facility, it looks lke this (very basic, i know, just for testing)

-- Soundtest.lua

SR=0

SD=""

SP=0

PLY=false

SD=sound.device(0)

SR=sound.play("CabinAlert",0,100)

PLY=sound.query(SR)

if PLY==true then

SP=1

end

ipc.sleep(2000)

The sleep function is only to let the sounfile play out and to watch what happens in de console window.

I have also pasted the output in the console window:

Console Started ...

As you can see, the sound driver is found and recognised, however no sound is played and the program does not execute line 13 in the IF..THEN block.

So the PLY variable must be false. The SR variable (soundref) however is set to 1. Strange...

I have tried with other sounddevices, always recognised but nothing is played.

[No more sounds in Lua scripts]

Hello,

I use Prepar3d and have recently updated from version 1.3 to 1.4. As suggested by Lockheed Martin, I did a clean installation, completely removing the old version and installing the newer one.

So I had to reinstall FSUIPC (v.4.853) as wel. No problems here, everything works as a bell. Exept for the .lua scripts that I made before (GF modules; avionics handling, APU handling,...) and where sound is used (APU startup,Cabin signs,...). Before upgrading Prepar3d all sounds invoked thrue the sound.play(filename) function worked fine, sounds were played normaly. However after the upgrade the sounds won't play anymore. The scripts work fine, there are no errors, the sounddevice is recognised and the soundref value is assigned. However the sound.query function returns as "false".

The sound files are in the default "\Prepare3D\Sound" map and I tried using the sound.path function, no effect. I have tried reinstalling FSUIPC, no effect.

All other simulator sounds, as well as PM Sounds, are played normaly. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
