ME: Radio Transmission Issue


SpecterDC13

Recommended Posts

So I was creating a mission and was setting up a trigger for a radio transmission to be played and when I selected "open" to select an audio file I clicked on the wrong one which was not an .ogg file and did not realize it until I tried to press play to preview it. When I tried to click "open" again to select a new file it will not open the file menu.

 

I already tried closing DCS and reopening it and even tried repairing it.

 

Does anyone else have this problem and if so do you have a fix? Or do I just wait for the next update?

Did you try deleting the trigger and recreating it?

 

Yes I have tried that multiple times. The mission editor allows me to click "open" and pulls up the file selector for .lua files, but as far as Radio Transmissions or Sounds it will not let me open the file selector for .ogg files for some strange reason.

 

 

I have tried creating new missions with all new triggers and the same thing still happens.

Make backup copies of your key mappings, custom missions, etc. then delete your DCS folder over C:\Users\UserName\Saved Games\DCS

 

Also, you can try repairing your DCS installation using cmd:

 

Gamedir\bin>DCS_updater.exe repair

 

See if that does the trick.

 

Alright I will give it a try and let you know if that works.

You could try to open the .miz file with a compress software (I use WinRar), locate the wrong sound file within it and delete it from there. Make a backup of the .miz first, just in case.

So I tried everything and ended up deleting it all together and redownloading DCS it worked at first but then I ran into the same issue this time with an actual .ogg file. Soooooooo yeah I am at a lost now.

So using notepad++ I found the line that had the bad mp3 audio and deleted and it fixed it now I can open up the file selector again and choose the correct file.
