You may have noticed that hotkeys can now have individual sounds,
and you may also have noticed that the default sounds suck.

To add new better sounds, your table needs to contain WAV files (RIFF Header).
You can either do that using table->add file, and then add a soundfile
Or
in the hotkey window, just rightclick on the sound selection combobox and choose "Add Sounds". That way you don't have to leave the screen

once your table contains them, the dropdownlists where you can pick the audio will contain the audiofiles in the table.

Method to encapsulate MP3 files to appear as .WAV files by adding a RIFF/WAV header to standard MPEG Layer-3 audio files:
(created wav file will still be as small as mp3, so you can embed more sounds like "godmode", "one hit kill", and more)


Code:
ffmpeg -i enable.mp3 -c:a copy enableMP3RIFF.wav


Code:
ffmpeg -i disable.mp3 -c:a copy disableMP3RIFF.wav


Download ffmpeg official builds from https://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/

I recommend "FFmpeg 32-bit Static Versions" from here
Direct link: https://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/win32/static/ffmpeg-latest-win32-static.7z




Instructions:
1. take ffmpeg.exe from "bin" folder. And place it inside folder where you have your mp3 files.
2. Select the folder you want to open in the command prompt
3. Right-click on it while holding the Shift key
4. Select Open command window here
4a if your OS is below win7, open command prompt the other way.

5. type in
Code:
ffmpeg -i sound.mp3 -c:a copy soundMP3RIFF.wav


6. press enter

This is really awesome, guys! +rep coming for both! Thanks!

EDIT:
I wonder if it would be possible to add multiple sounds to one entry with a random shuffle feature? For example, activating infinite health might say "infinite health activated" or "predictable" or "indeed" etc...randomly generated. Deactivating health might say "infinite health deactivated" or "foolish" or "you will lose" etc... I think it could make the trainers more fun. Very Happy

For that you can just use {$Lua} block.

Code:
[ENABLE]

{$Lua}
if syntaxcheck then return end
local choice=math.random(1,3)
playSound(findTableFile('enable'..choice..'.wav'))
{$Asm}

[DISABLE]

{$Lua}
if syntaxcheck then return end
local choice=math.random(1,2)
playSound(findTableFile('disable'..choice..'.wav'))
{$Asm}


multiple sounds to one entry.ct

So, in this case, we would add all of the audio files that we are going to use for our trainer, then, just define which ones we want to use for each, individual script using the code that you have provided?

EDIT:
Never mind. I looked at your table and figured that out! Very Happy
So cool! Thanks a lot!

So, in this case:
Code:
local choice=math.random(1,3)
playSound(findTableFile('enable'..choice..'.wav'))


This would cycle through all 'enable' files between 1-3? It seems to work that way.

Great! Thanks!

Yes. If you want randomness and multiple sounds to one memrec (with AA script).



For other memrecs, for example pointer to HP, you can add children memrec (AA script with script similar to script in my previous post), set group config to "activating this entry activates it's children" and "deactivating this entry dectivates it's children"

multiple sounds to one entry (non AA script).ct

PS: read this topic http://forum.cheatengine.org/viewtopic.php?t=592591

Current CE 6.5.1, second post release, has a bug. It doesn't save custom hotkey sounds for AutoAssembler memrec.
You test it. It works. You save it to CT file, then open that CT file, custom sound settings are gone. Because of copy&paste, DB missed two lines. Patch to fix this issue:
Code:
Index: MemoryRecordUnit.pas
===================================================================
--- MemoryRecordUnit.pas   (wersja 2416)
+++ MemoryRecordUnit.pas   (kopia robocza)
@@ -1161,10 +1161,10 @@
       if hotkey[i].id>=0 then
         hk.AppendChild(doc.CreateElement('ID')).TextContent:=inttostr(hotkey[i].id);
 
-      if hotkey[i].value<>'' then
+      if hotkey[i].activateSound<>'' then
         hk.AppendChild(doc.CreateElement('ActivateSound')).TextContent:=hotkey[i].activateSound;
 
-      if hotkey[i].value<>'' then
+      if hotkey[i].deactivateSound<>'' then
         hk.AppendChild(doc.CreateElement('DeactivateSound')).TextContent:=hotkey[i].deactivateSound;
 
     end;



You can try my build or wait for "third post release" CE installer.



I think this whole topic should be moved to "Cheat Engine Beta" subforum. Then create new topic after CE6.5.1.3 arrives.

Yeah...I saw that. I'll probably just wait for the fixed release since I'm not currently working on anything at the moment since I'm too busy with work-related stuff. I am excited to try out the new features, though. Very Happy

You can also add the sounds back with a text editor (just don't save again, like most cheat tables)
