Force Sound?

[DarkRider]

Another question!!

I have a sound object in an interior cell and I need it to play from 1200-1600  everyday. I tried just setting the start and end sliders, but that doesn't work. The settings are right, but it just doesn't seem to play when I need it to. Is there a way to script this sound object to play in that cell everyday at that time? And to loop until the 4hrs has passed?

I'd even appreciate radical ideas, but no OBSE tricks please!!

With the sliders both at midnight and Loop ticked, were you able to hear the sound?  You realize that if the source is a stereo .wav file, you need to tick 2D, right?  If it's mono, you may need to bump the Minimum Attenuation Distance so you don't have to be right over it to hear it.  If you get it working on a continuous loop basis, you should be able to limit to the time you need with the sliders.

If that does not work like you want, it can be scripted just like the streetlight script turns the lights on and off using enable and disable.

I also did quite a bit of work with sounds in the "Haunted House" mod. It was fun!

Downloaded the sound from a free source and didn't even think to check if it was mono or stereo, checking the 2D box sorted it out! Thanks mates!
