I just killed a vampire wearing several hundred trophies, and Soundsense took more than 5 minutes to play clink sounds for every single one of 'em.

Easy fix, really; just thought others should know. Also, thanks for making such an awesome program!

Lol. That little report just made my day :) Thanks. Also, thanks to Zwei for Soundsense. I feel it gives much more to the game than graphics packs.

I wish it would launch as soon as you launch DF, rather then halfing to launch it manualy.

Tend to agree. What would be awesome is if DFHack could include options to launch Soundsense as an option so that both could launch at start, via the replacement SDL file. I know SS operates purely via the gamelog, but maybe that'd allow SS to 'inherit' the current DF location, rather than needing to configure it.

Although come to think of it, with some talk I've seen of DFHack plugins, maybe SS could be implemented to be launched as a DFHack plugin and accomplish this. That would seriously be awesome.

A couple pages back I was trying to make a batch file.  Came up with a few hitches that I couldn't overcome (dos commands not being made for multitasking, stonesense and DFHack'd DF using their command windows.  Stuff like that.)  It pretty much runs the first program listed, and pauses all other .bat processing until that first program is closed.

If you can get a batch file working more power to ya though, I'm not exactly a .bat guru myself.

when i click 'start automatic update' it gives me 'error: java.io.filenotfoundexception (long dropbox URL)'

I went to the dropbox URL and it had a 404: file not found error
that is the problem; the download has been deleted (or i somehow got the wrong URL. I am using the lazy newb pack)

Just go to the webpage linked in the OP, download the Soundpack and drop it in manually. No idea why the AU is broken for you, worked fine for me with a fresh download. Maybe your Java is out of date.

Added this to the death.xml file:

Code: [Select]
<sound logPattern="(.+) has been slaughtered\." playbackThreshhold="2">
<!-- http://www.archive.org/details/WilhelmScreamSample -->
<soundFile fileName="WilhelmScream_vbr.mp3" />

<!-- http://www.freewebs.com/notthewilhelmscream/download.html -->
<soundFile fileName="gutwrenching_scream.mp3" />
</sound>

I was starting to miss the Wilhelm Scream everytime I butchered a cat....

Going to see if it works now, got a bunch of poultry to slaughter.

You got Soundsense from the LNP, right? The update path in that one isn't correct anymore, Zwei posted this into the LNP-thread. the new entry is
Code: [Select]
<autoUpdateURL path="http://df.zweistein.cz/soundsense/soundpack"/>
which you have to replace in the configuration.xml in your Soundsense folder. If you got it from the LNP it's located in the LNP/Utilities/Newb/Soundsense

Any updates for the new stuff in DF2012 yet?

Some most obvious stuff is done, but there are many new events that are a bit rarer or which only happen to people with certain playstyle. Hence why I am asking for game logs of DF2012 forts and adventurers.

A couple pages back I was trying to make a batch file.  Came up with a few hitches that I couldn't overcome (dos commands not being made for multitasking, stonesense and DFHack'd DF using their command windows.  Stuff like that.)  It pretty much runs the first program listed, and pauses all other .bat processing until that first program is closed.

If you can get a batch file working more power to ya though, I'm not exactly a .bat guru myself.

I think start command should help: http://www.robvanderwoude.com/ntstart.php

Ok, new question since I finally got around to updating my soundsense, I needed to redo my customisations.  Well enough I suppose since It was set up in some odd way.  But when I try to set it up in a way that just points to the music's permanent home instead of having to make a dozen copies, I get a bunch of these.

25/02/2012 09:08:33.423: Did not find .\packs\intruders/C:\Users\Admin\Music\The
 Last Remnant\125 Sword Sparks.mp3, ignoring.
That times about 40 for every custom file I tried to plug in there.  The actual line for that one is
Code: [Select]
<soundFile fileName="C:\Users\Admin\Music\The Last Remnant\125 Sword Sparks.mp3" volumeAdjustment="-10" />

Is soundsense incapable of looking outside those folders or am I just making some stupid mistake....again?


It expects every path to be relative to base directory - not full path. I suppose it is a bug that needs fixing.


Just ran into something others might appreciate: You might do well to set "concurency" or even "haltOnMatch" parameters for drop sounds in battle. I just killed a vampire wearing several hundred trophies, and Soundsense took more than 5 minutes to play clink sounds for every single one of 'em.

Easy fix, really; just thought others should know. Also, thanks for making such an awesome program!

I looked into it - drop sounds should have concurency (and timeout) set. Can you send me your log of this event?

I suppose it might have taken some times to parse several hundred log lines, but five minutes is way too long.

Non-issue; my fault. Hadn't updated the soundpack like I thought I had, and was using an older version that apparently didn't have it set yet. Updated just today and it's set properly. Sorry 'bout that!

I have to ask, what is the song that plays in World Gen? No matter where I look I can't seem to find it, and I wanna know, cause it's right in my favourite musical nitch type. XD
