  • I receive this error when I turn the hook on

    Code: Select all
    SV_SoundIndex("weapons/hook_fire.wav"): not precached (fix your code), precaching anyway 


    Folks report that the audio lags when hook is enabled, and I assume the problem is related to this error.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks.

  • The code looks correct (hook_fire.wav is precached) and i can't reproduce that problem. Are you using any mods or have you installed Nexuiz using a debian/rpm package?

  • This is stock 2.3, unpacked from the .zip on sourceforge. I have added maps, but that's it.

  • It's only precached when g_grappling_hook is on before the map is loaded.
    1. Open Notepad
    2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
    3. Save
    4. Open the file in Notepad again

    You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

  • That would explain it! Thanks, divVerent.

  • Yes, but it shouldn't cause lag.
    1. Open Notepad
    2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
    3. Save
    4. Open the file in Notepad again
