No Jailbreak Announcer

[ChaosJester]

I loaded up JB and downloaded the SoundsOnly announcer turned it on in the settings and noticed my announcer never spoke. Problem is, when I look back, it never spoke in the first place after install without the SoundsOnly Announcer so the newer file is not the issue. When I tried to hear the announcer in the test mode in settings, I could not hear it. The normal UT2004 announcer still works. What could be causing it? I used the UMOD version of the JB file.

I only have an older machine at my disposal so if it is the comp's problem I am outta luck.

Which announcer are you refering to? Theres 4 official voicepacks with real people voices, are none of those working? Is my unofficial SoundsOnly pack working properly? Check your ut2004\Sounds folder, you should have the following files in it;

JBVoiceFreak.uax
JBVoiceGrrrl.uax
JBVoicellama.uax

If you dont then you probably need to reinstall the mod

superchebs, none of the standard voices are working and neither is yours and I know yours is installed properly, and it didn't work prior to installing yours. I really have no idea why this happened. I mean I may have missed a file or two, but the UMOD seemed to work ok and I am sure that when I loaded the file, I saw it loading the uax files for the announcers.

When you try to change the Jailbreak voice pack -- does the "Test" button work?

 

[ChaosJester]

No the test button does not work. I can't hear the voices at all and I even restarted the game to see if it would work if I tried again and it still didn't work. I just checked the log- it does not show any faults or errors when I load a jailbreak game.

Edit: I just reinstalled Jailbreak using a non-UMOD zip archive. The announcer still does not work. I do have some other mods installed- strangelove arena 2k4, team radar 3.1, 1on1 Ultra Duel, the CPB2 plus a few others that use the mod menu. None of these were active at the time I was playing Jailbreak.

Under Audio do the following...

In the Announcer box look for Announcements. That tab should be set to All.

Now load up a JB map. When the map is loaded go into settings and then HUD.
Go to Configure Jailbreak and try to test the voices. Thats how I got mine to work.

Half Lunatic- Thanx you helped me big time, I can hear the voices now. I guess the bug if it is one is the Announcer has to be set on All for the Jailbreak announcers to work properly.
