Description

G'day ladies and gents,

When trying to utilise certain cutscene animations in missions, the associated footstep sounds fail to play, and the .RPT fills up with LOTS of variations on the following:

Cannot load sound 'a3\sounds_f\characters\cutscenes\dirt_acts_welcomeonhub01_playerwalk.wss'
Cannot load sound 'a3\sounds_f\characters\cutscenes\dirt_acts_welcomeonhub01_playerwalk_1.wss'
Cannot load sound 'a3\sounds_f\characters\cutscenes\dirt_acts_welcomeonhub01_playerwalk_2.wss'
Cannot load sound 'a3\sounds_f\characters\cutscenes\dirt_acts_welcomeonhub01_playerwalk_3.wss'
Cannot load sound 'a3\sounds_f\characters\cutscenes\dirt_acts_welcomeonhub01_playerwalk_4.wss'
Cannot load sound 'a3\sounds_f\characters\cutscenes\dirt_acts_welcomeonhub01_playerwalk_5.wss'
Cannot load sound 'a3\sounds_f\characters\cutscenes\dirt_acts_welcomeonhub01_playerwalk_6.wss'
Cannot load sound 'a3\sounds_f\characters\cutscenes\dirt_acts_welcomeonhub02_playerwalk.wss'
Cannot load sound 'a3\sounds_f\characters\cutscenes\dirt_acts_welcomeonhub02_playerwalk_2.wss'
Cannot load sound 'a3\sounds_f\characters\cutscenes\grass_acts_welcomeonhub02_playerwalk_3.wss'
Cannot load sound 'a3\sounds_f\characters\cutscenes\dirt_acts_welcomeonhub02_playerwalk_3.wss'

Take a look at the attached .RPT to see what I mean re: LOTS of spam.

The offending animation in my circumstance is "Acts_welcomeOnHUB01_PlayerWalk_1". {F23904}

Hello,

thank you for submitting the ticket. Would it be possible to upload a simple editor-made mission displaying the problem? It would help us a lot.

Thank you very much.

Sure can, mate.

Mission uploaded. Use radio alpha to get the animation to play, and then witness them silent footsteps.

I suspect this issue is affecting >1 cutscene animation, as I also noticed this line appearing in a different mission:

Cannot load sound 'a3\sounds_f\characters\cutscenes\dirt_acts_standingspeakingunarmed.wss'

Thank you for the repro mission, the problem is clear from it. It has been assigned to responsible department.
