Description

This automates the SimpleAudio process outlined in this repo from @ChatDisabled, which also includes a sample resource with usage. In addition, the script also prepares the radio station and track data to be used with Chat's Custom Native Radio Stations resource.

Basics

• Converts MP3s, WAVs, and OGG files to properly formatted WAVs for OpenIV conversion
• Prepares the necessary XMLs for OpenIV conversion

Usage

1. Run npm install
2. In the terminal npm run makeWavs with the following parameters
   • --file - comma separated list of files, with the extension that will be processed. The script only uses MP3s.
   • --folder - If you dont want to specify a list of files, you can specify folder in the root of the project, that holds the files that will be processed. The script only uses MP3s.
   • --samplerate - The sample rate of the outputted files.
   • --trackid - The starting trackid that will be used for the processed tracks, used specifically for radio type.
   • --soundset - This is the soundset dict name used for playing sounds, used specifically for simple type.
   • --audiobank - This is the audiobank name/folder, used specifically for simple sound type. If not specified, it will default to custom_sounds.
   • --gun - This is the name of the weapon you're generating the audio data for, used specifically for weapon type. NOTE: sns is the only working example right now. I will add more in the future.
   • --type - This can be simple, radio, or weapon, each outputting their respective audio data files.
