DOE: Sound Extension

[DoubleDanGaming]

Hi,

I am having some problems trying to get the extension to work, Fantasy Grounds won't trigger the sound playback on Syrinscape. There are no red X's or anything, the base and sound extensions are loaded.
I checked that the "sound" configuration is on but when I click the sound link nothing happens, no errors or anything, with or without Syrinscape running.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

If you're using it on a Mac, give up. The sound extension doesn't seem to work properly on any flavor of macOS or OS X. You'll need to try it under bootcamp or a VM.

No I'm running Windows 10.

The sounds have to be triggered from a player. Are you running two instances of FG? One as DM and one as client? If so, then triggers generated from the client should work.

I'm trying to play ambient sounds from the mini board for now, without chat triggers.

I generate sounds as GM all the time. Soundlinks work fine for me.

Have you turned Sounds "On" in the FG Options?

[Zen Master]

Yes, that was one of the first things that I checked. The strange thing is that I'm not getting any errors, just nothing happens.

Where is the Sound String in the Soundlink Record coming from? Are you using a self-created Soundlink Record or one from a Library/Extension?

[Zen Master]

I tried with both, creating my own from Syrinscape third party app integration, and also with another one from the DOM Soundlink Library.
Neither work, same thing happens with both.

OK, try these (in this order):

1. Choose an existing sound from Syrinscape and confirm that it plays by clicking on its button in Sysrinscape.
2. Create a new Soundlink Record using the 3rd Party Integration for the sound in step 1. Don't forget to click on the green "+" button so that the purple Soundlink icon is created/appears.
3. Re-confirm that Sounds are turned "On" in the FG Options.
4. Test the new Soundlink.
5. If its still not working, post a screen shot of the Soundlink record.
