How having xonotic server to make client download custom characters' sounds? - gabolander - 01-24-2015
Hi there,
I successfully changed some sounds on various players in default .pk3 data file (xonotic-20150113-data.pk3 in my case), and I changed files such as, eg., death1.ogg, death2.ogg,pain100.ogg, ecc. sounds in /player/soldier/player/ for example.
Then I repacked using the same name xonotic-20150113-data.pk3 in my case.
Now, when I locally run xonotic (0.8.0), I can hear the sounds I changed, but if I raise up a server, how can I have client to download my updated, custom sounds?
Have I to change/set some options in my server.cfg?
I'd really appreciate any suggestion.
Thanks in advance?

to ship different models/sounds/textures by server you have to pack them into a pk3 file and transfer it like maps by using:
Code:
sv_curl_defaulturl "your_http_ftp_server"
sv_curl_serverpackages "your_package"GreetZ Su

Hi first of all thank you very much for your reply.
To be honest, I'm just a little bit confused....
I tried to set sv_curl_defaulturl "http://<my_publicIP>/" and in sv_curl_serverpackeges "zzzmetalgabo.pk3" (that is my package with custom sounds).
I figure out, my webserver (apache2) should be up and running to make my pk3 available on port 80 and I put my pk3 under web server's document root.
When I raise up server, I don't find any information about my zzzmetalgabo.pk3 in the server log, and when a client connects to my server, it runs with default sounds with its characters.
I also tried to copy zzzmetalgabo.pk3 in root's ~/.xonotic/data (since I run server with root), but with no luck.
Any other things I can check? I tried to google around, but didn't find any useful information to custom sounds to client of already present characters.
Thank you in advance for your help.

BTW, another weird thing... I set an 'hostname' variable in server.cfg to name my server (say, "Server Gabo 1234"). If I locally run client in my local network, I can see my server name in the multiplayer server list, but when a friend try to search/filter it from internet, doesn't. If I tell him my public-ip:port (es. "78.100.200.300:26000"), he can succesfully connect and play into my server, though.
I can I my server listed in the public server list?
Thanks in advance for your help.

first of all - make sure your map/webserver is working
sec - insert a file zzzmetalgabo.txt into pk3 file
zzzmetalgabo.txt only contains something like
Code:
File used for package ID in sv_curl_serverpackages.edit your server-config too:
sv_curl_serverpackages "zzzmetalgabo.pk3 zzzmetalgabo.txt"
restart server
should be working (at leas it does 4 me)

Wow, thank you very much, we are achieveing a result!!
Now, locally it works, zzzmetalgabo.pk3 is correctly loaded, but when a public users connects, it is displayed for a while "downloading dlcache/zzzmetalgabo.pk3 0/??? K " and it fails, and he plays with standard sounds. When it looks into his ~/.xonotic/data/dlcache, he can see a 0 length file zzzmetalgabo.pk3, so something didn't work with webserver. Webserver is up and running (apache), and if I target "http://myaddress/zzzmetalgabo.pk3" it a "wget" command, for example, I can normally download the file...
Thanks for any further suggestions.
Any idea for make my server appear in multiplayer server list??
Thanks again.

Hi mate, there's an update!
Now clients can succesfully download my .pk3.
It is stored in their ~/.xonotic/data/dlcache dir.The weird thing now, is that the clients can hear announcers' custom sounds, but not players' custom sounds (e.g. soldier,marine,robot etc.).
My pk3 structure is like following:
Code:

------------------- ----- ------------ ------------ ------------------------For having even the custom player/characters sounds working, the clients should have to manually move the downloaded zzz-metalgabo.pk3 from $HOME/.xonotic/data/dlcache to ${XONOTIC_GAME_DIR}/data dir.
Where am I still wrong in your opinion?
Tnx in advance

Yes, it's there, but didn't help.
Thanks anyway.
