Title: ...and the crowd goes wild! But why? Post by: jennydeenyc on 2008 June 22, 03:41:11 So I've been playing with my new EPs & SPs installed for a few days now, and of all the new stuff, there's one thing I can't figure out. Occasionally, I'll hear the sound of a crowd cheering, but when I look around at what all my sims are up to, nothing seems to warrant that type of sound effect. I guess it's something from either Pets, BV or FT, but I have no idea why this noise crops up in the random manner it does.
And yes, I did google this, but I phailed :-( Title: Re: ...and the crowd goes wild! But why? Post by: J. M. Pescado on 2008 June 22, 03:42:12 It's a zone-effect.
Title: Re: ...and the crowd goes wild! But why? Post by: jennydeenyc on 2008 June 22, 03:45:44 See, I thought that might be what it was, but I installed the hack that eliminates the zone sound (supposedly) but leaves the glow before ever running the game with FT installed for the first time. Guess it isn't working in my game - though HCDU doesn't see anything that conflicts with it. Weird. I also didn't notice anyone on my lot glowing when the sound occurs, but they have glowed when in the zone at other times, without the noise, which is probably why I didn't make the connection.
Ah well, thanks for the info! Title: Re: ...and the crowd goes wild! But why? Post by: J. M. Pescado on 2008 June 22, 03:47:37 It's a nonstandard zone effect, so Jfade probably missed it since the noise doesn't occur from the same place.

Title: Re: ...and the crowd goes wild! But why? Post by: Simsbaby on 2008 June 22, 07:43:18 Then it should totally happen after sims WooHoo. That would probably be the icing on the cake after all the "Honk honk!" noises.

Yeah, I've been meaning to add this to my hack for a while now but I haven't gotten around to it yet since I've been working on two other projects. Soon though. :PTitle: Re: ...and the crowd goes wild! But why? Post by: J. M. Pescado on 2008 June 23, 21:07:15 Are they sucky projects?
Title: Re: ...and the crowd goes wild! But why? Post by: jfade on 2008 June 23, 22:24:53 Are they sucky projects? By your definitions, one definitely is (hack type thing), the other might not be but it's in Jawa, so I suspect you'll shout "USE A REAL LANGUAGE!"Title: Re: ...and the crowd goes wild! But why?

You can tell it is likely to happen when a sim autonomously switches to Formal just to play. It also happens when you click over to a zoned sim who's in the middle of their performance. |
