Hi!

I am having a problem, I've "installed" weapon custom sounds into half-life 2\hl2\sound, but they are not working (it sounds like the normal sounds)! can you help plz?

Maybe you putted those to wrong folder? If there are "install"txt use it

[Grovyle]

Nop, but maybe I am wrong about one thing:

I only putted the sounds and the folders with them (like folder ar2, shotgun, alyxgun, etc), but I think I need to create a folder at the sound folder named "weapon", so HL2 will recognize... Am I wrong? I saw this at GMOD...

I don't know about HL2 but in CS:S you go Steam >> Steamapps >> (your steam nick) >> counter-strike source >> cstrike and put them to there

[Grovyle]

You need to put the ar2 folders, shotgun folders, pistol/alyxgun/WHATEVER folders in hl2 folder?

in HL2 is like this: steamapps >>> <USERNAME> >>> half-life 2 >>> hl2

The HL2 engine is same as CS Source's, so I think it will work like that ._.

[Kessu]

Well in that case it should work..

u need to put correct sounds in correct folder, lets say shotgun,put em here:

**\Half Life 2\hl2\sound\weapons\shotgun

others **\Half Life 2\hl2\sound\weapons\**

[Grovyle]

Doesn't work...

The sounds are still the same

also, do I need to start HL2 from steam to the changes make effect? because I can't launch from steam, it gives an error...

[Kessu]

What error will it give to you?
