Hi all

I know this is probably an very easy question but how do I add a custom startup sound to a server? Something that plays when a player joins.
What format some the sound need to be in as well please?

you may try LogoSplashV3 mutator, it acts as server actor and must be shared in ServerPackages
check this config in your UnrealTournament.ini file

[Engine.GameEngine]
...
ServerActors=LogoSplashV3.SplashLogoSA
...
ServerPackages=LogoSplashV3
ServerPackages=soundpackage
...



[LogoSplashV3.SplashLogoSA]
LogoTexture=package.texturename
LogoDrawDelay=1.0
LogoFadeInTime=3.0
LogoDrawTime=8.0
LogoFadeOutTime=3.0
CaptionLineOne=
CaptionLineTwo=
CaptionLineThree=
CaptionLineFour=
IntroSound=soundpackage.soundname
CustomRedFlag=
CustomBlueFlag=
bLogoTranslucent=True
Position=left:50px,top:50px
Size=byself:1



I don't know if there's a specific mutator for playing sounds when players join a server.
If you use 11Khz/8bit/mono sounds you should avoid any problems.


cheers,

Thank you.

I have MapvoteLA13 which has the option to show a splash logo, don't think it does sound.
I will look into LogoSplashV3 you mention, thanks :tu:

SplashLog from Mapvote is a texture shown between columns and not a common HUD LOGO. I'm using a default symbol texture there, it is being open with Voting Menu not at player-login.

Maybe I need to start another thread but does anyone have a list of nice startup sounds when joining a server?

On one MH server there is a "you are all going to die down here" voice as you join :lol:
