I'm in the middle of updating.

I copied audext.exe and audext.dpr to LC > audio.

I double-clicked audext.exe. A black box appeared with a cursor for awhile then disappeared.

The read me says "run SFX.exe...."

I don't see it anywhere--where is it?

Which version of LC are you trying to install? Because I just checked and the readme for the latest v7test package doesn't say that. The instructions for installing the SFX for the latest package look like this:

QUOTE (v7test Readme)

As with the GTA3 audio, the SFX in this case is an optional add-on - to install it, do the following: Download it Create a folder in your LC\audio\ directory called "SFX" Move SFX.RAW and SFX.SDT from the audio folder to this new SFX folder Extract Nullpointer's Tool.rar to the SFX folder Run audext.exe and wait until the window that pops up disappears Extract SFX.rar to the SFX folder, and then extract the Extract Me Here!.rar file straight into the SFX folder Run Blanks.bat (it should be in the SFX folder) and wait for it to finish Run audimp.exe and wait until the window that pops up disappears Move SFX.RAW and SFX.SDT back to the audio folder Delete the SFX folder and all of its contents

I see now--I'm updating v.6 to v.7 and was looking at the text readme for v.6 instead of the html file for v.7.

I can proceed with the hml file instruction. I closed what I'd done before (see above) so I wouldn't ruin anything. Should I do something to change what I've done back to what it was before? I don't have a backup.

[Ben]

Not sure exactly what you're asking. If you're worried that you've messed something up, simply remove the LC folder you've created, copy your VC folder and start again.

If you mean that you installed straight over your VC folder, then you're just going to have to reinstall VC before you can begin reinstalling LC. If you've lost the LC "installer" package, you'll have to re-download it.

I hope something I said there related to what you wanted! Good luck .

Thanks! I got it, the GTA "III" sounds are there around Misty's apartment biuilding, etc., and the 'cycles are looking real good, too.

Hello guys.I have a problem.I've just instaled LC.It works fine but I don't have any missions.So i've downloaded main.scm from this forum but my game crashes when I start a new game.I've also downloaded LC beta 2.6(or something like that) but it has the same problem.Can somebody help me.

[Ben]

Did you try ANYTHING I mentioned in either of the two PM's I sent you? They came complete with links, so you didn't have to go searching for anything.

Also, some more information (and specific information at that) would be really handy. I've already directed you to the readme included with the 2.7test download (which I linked you to) - did you try any of the solutions mentioned in it? Did you install LC properly? etc.

The more you help us, the more we can help you .

EDIT - Actually, if you continue to try and post new topics, I'll make a point of not helping you. Especially when I've already told you where to post questions. How bout you go back and re-read the first PM I sent you, and then read the rules/directory topic before posting again?

But, so that you don't ask here - if you want information on Ghost-town (or any other gameplay aspects), the GTA3 area is the place to go.

I've tryed everything you have written to me in the PM.But no result...And if you want more informations,here they are:
I've downloaded LC v2.7.I've installed it.I enter inthe game.I click ,,Start New Game,,.After that I click on ,,New Game,,.For a second a blue loading line appears, but after that the game closes.Are this informations enough??

[Ben]

All I suggested was to read the readme (especially the bit marked IMPORTANT, directly above the common problems table). So if you've tried deleting vc_weather.asi and vc_weather.cfg, then I don't have any idea what your problem is. Sorry.

[nameless_hero]

And I have anoother thing that I think that is a problem.I don't have the audio for LC .Should this be a problem<?>

[Ben]

Again, the readme addresses this. Read it, m'kay?

[nameless_hero]

Dude, I've readed it.The problem is not that I can't hear sounds in the game.The problem is that I don't have the ,,audio,, folder, got it?Is this a problem??

[Ben]

Yes! Why? Because the readme states that you have to copy your VC folder as the first part of the installation process. That implies that everything in your VC folder is copied over too .

And if you're VC folder doesn't have an audio folder, then you shouldn't even be asking for help because that would mean you're using a warezed copy (not sure how it works without the audio folder, but it's definitely not an official version) - the rules of GTAF state that asking for assistance with anything warez related isn't allowed (because it's illegal to even have warez). So, if this is the case, go and buy a proper copy of VC.

No need to shout - I can hear you just fine. That's a round-about way of saying don't use caps .

I'm assuming you have v7test (which is the latest version of LC - available from the pinned Updates for LC topic) - if you don't have it, then get it. And then to fix your sound bugs, grab the SFX update in that topic as well.

As for installation - read the Readme included as it covers everything you need to know .

Good luck .

In future, as r.t.p said, please use the search function - you'll find that others have had this problem before as well .

All converted sound files are taken directly from GTA3 (those that weren't taken directly, such as the crusher, are a combination of wavs that were taken from the GTA3 SFX archive) - what I'm trying to say is that there's nothing wrong with the pitch. If you don't like it, you'll have to edit it for your own version (meaning it would be something unofficial for LC) - the only way I can think of to do that is to edit the actual SFX wavs yourself with an audio editor. If you need help with the audio editing, then you'll have to look elsewhere because you're not going to find any in the LC forum - I can tell you how to get the SFX wavs though - check out my guide in the forum, and look in the third post (LC\Audio\) .

As for your other question - no, I can't send you my SFX archive. Why? Purely because of size (it's around 300MB), not to mention that if you have installed the SFX update, your archive will be the same as mine anyway.



EDIT - I'll lock this up on Thursday (along with the FAQ) and start a new combined help and questions topic. I've had a "scaffold" of a new topic sitting on my PC for some time - considering the size of this topic, I think now is a good time to start a-new.

EDIT 2 - Oki doke, the new topic can be found here.

Locked.
