Stock 1.4 explosion sound bug
by Elizabeth Sweedyk · in Torque Game Engine · 05/30/2006 (5:10 pm) · 7 replies
The crossbow in the starter.fps game plays the explosion sound when it is fired (rather than the thwap sound it should play) after you have exited a mission and loaded again from the menu.
Replication instructions:
Download torque 1.4.0
open the starter.fps game
Start a new mission on Stronghold
Once you have spawned, exit out to the menu
Start a new mission again
fire the crossbow
I've looked through a lot of this forum, but I can't find a thread on this. Does anyone have any idea how this could be fixed?

@C2 - I've never heard of this ogg issue before. Do you have any more information on this bug?

Lore uses for the most part only oggs, and this is the first I've heard of it...

Oggs and wavs tend get mixed up until you apply the bug fix at the bottom of this thread.

The last post in your link was april 2005...is this still an issue in the latest TGE? It doesn't look like Akio's fix was implemented.

Confirmed here. You have to nuke DSOs, too...

Basically, *.ogg files tend to be bad to use for anything other than music files, as they tend to swap around among other *.ogg files. It's a known sound bug. Using *.wav files solves this.
