View Full Version : Sound Sets For Effect Spells Not Triggering

It's probably a simple fix, but I just purchased a Super Syrinscape subscription and also purchased the PHB sound link pack and I can't seem to get sounds to play for spells that do not have a dice roll component. For example, spells like Shield, Expeditious Retreat, Mage Armor, just to name a few. In FantasyGrounds each of these has a sound file that exists in sound sets (which when I press the play button plays just fine) but when I use the abilities by applying the effect (i.e. clicking the purple effect icon) it does not play the sound. Clicking the Use Power icon also does not work. I've also tried using the spell in both the legacy and 2024 PHB source, and neither work. I'm not sure what else to do.

Indeed. The problem is that the subtype set in the sound for the spells you mention are set to cast and since none of the spells have the cast button the correct subtype would need to be Chat. If you change the subtype to chat they should work.

Thank you, this worked great.
