DOE: Sound Extension

[Qoff]

Is it possible to trigger the sound inside the fantasy grounds itself instead of a third party software?

Fantasy Grounds has no sound capability (other than the basic ding). So you need third party software for sounds.

Is the Sound Extension working with the current version of Fantasy Grounds in the Pathfinder ruleset? I've gotten this to work in the past so I'm familiar with the setup. I watched all the tutorials I could find, reinstalled the extensions, and disabled all other extensions and I still can't get it to play the links to Syrinscape. Help please!

DOE Sound is tested and supported with the Pathfinder ruleset, but not with the PF Playtest ruleset (though it may work). See; https://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/..._Compatibility


The first thing to check is do you have the sound option turned on in your campaign options?

[seoulgamer]

Yes I have Sound turned on. I'm lost, I've disabled all other extensions and reinstalled the base ext along with the soundset ext and it's still not working. I installed this and set up soundboards on my old computer so I have experience with the setup. Super frustrated. I don't know what I'm overlooking.

Yeah - occassionaly Syrinscape will release a version (it's happened once in the past, to my knowledge) that breaks the linkages between it and the DOE:Sound. Usually, between Benjamin and myself we get it fixed pretty quickly, but it still manages to bite someone in the back-side sooner or later

Unfortunately, the solution that Syrinscape came up with for their Master/Minion Web-based version is, at the moment, 100% incompatible with how FG and the DOE:Sound work. I've been investigating the solution for a couple of weeks now and, to get it to work, it is going to require either SmiteWorks radically changing the FG-Engine (something which in the past they have been super reluctant to do) or a complete architectural re-design of the Syrinscape M/M system. In either case, its out of my hands.

Wouldn't it be enought to have sort of a proxy that registers a fake protocol with windows, just like syrinscape desktop does? It could be installed as a deamon in windows and tunnel the requests from fg to the syrinscape web api. It would only need to be unidirectional in a fire and forget way. You'd only have to tell the DOE extension to call a different (fake-) protocol than for the desktop version of syrinscape.

EDIT:
So you'd basically need this https://archive.codeplex.com/?p=customurl and this https://curl.haxx.se/windows/ (didn't try it myself yet)

*NEVERMIND, I fixed it by just re-downloading the extension and reactivating it*

I can't seem to create Sounds anymore. The Sound window is totally blank and I do not have any buttons (drop down menu or edit).
Any idea?

First, restart your computer. Problem still there? Exit FG, start a new campaign, still there?
