Silent Sounds

Hi again guys, back working on my map after a logn absence.. still having a problem wiht sounds that i wasn't able to fix before.

im using ambient_generic to produce an engine sound beside a car, only thing is you can just about hear it when you have the volume up full blast - and even then its barely audible. the volume is set to 10 the sound is set to loop. i've even tried setting 3 identical entities down to produce the sound with very little effect.

First obvious question: Is it turned on? (look in the flags, is the flag: start silent checked? If so un check it!)

Second not so obvious question: Are you using a correct sound file? Some don't exactly work with ambient_generic.

mmh weird I've a kind of problem like that but in cs:s

If I test the map and go into spectators I hear the sound, but when I join a team the sound dissapears :sad:

Wasn't there some deal how ambient_generic's wouldn't work if the map
started with it on or something?...try activating it a second or two
after the map loads.
