ModuleManager Experts i need your help! :O

[bullettMAGNETT]

Hello everyone, thanks for reading.

Im the creator of the Audio Replacement Project Mod ( A.R.P ) in Version 1.0 i used a simple method to change the sounds for the rockets. Then i started working on a way to used ModuleManager to implement the new way audio works.

It was working in a way, sound was being played BUT! a new problem Arrived

Since the release of Nazari's HOT ROCKETS, i noticed my sound stopped working with that mod. check the cfg and found that it overrides the default ksp sounds, and it overrides my cfg for ModuleManager.

i got no ideas on how to make it work.

I have a simple request, i need help to fix my mod. Ive got no programming experience to make a plugin.

Here is an example of how my sound CFG looks like for the lv-909

//----------------------------------------------------------

//--LV909

//----------------------------------------------------------

@PART[liquidEngine3] // lv-909

{

EFFECTS

{

engage

{

AUDIO

{

channel = Ship

clip = BARP/Sounds/sound_eng_bullettarp_v0100

!clip = sound_vent_medium

volume = 1.0

pitch = 1.0

}

}

running

{

AUDIO

{

channel = Ship

clip = BARP/Sounds/sound_lv909_bullettarp_v0100

!clip = sound_rocket_hard

volume = 0.0 0.0

volume = 1.0 1.0

pitch = 0.0 0.5

pitch = 1.0 1.0

loop = true

}

}

disengage

{

AUDIO

{

channel = Ship

clip = BARP/Sounds/sound_dis_bullettarp_v0100

!clip = sound_sound_vent_soft

volume = 1.0

pitch = 1.0

}

}

flameout

{

AUDIO

{

channel = Ship

clip = BARP/Sounds/sound_flo_bullettarp_v0100

!clip = sound_explosion_low

volume = 1.0

pitch = 1.0

}

}

}

}

And this is Hot Rockets part for the same Engine (notice it's addressing the ksp sounds too, and will override my configuration )

IN NEED OF HELP!

TO MAKE A.R.P COMPATIBLE WITH HOT ROCKETS.

AS HOT ROCKETS FILES OVERRIDES MY MODULE MANAGER CONFIGURATION > (btw no screaming CAPS

[bullettMAGNETT]

no replies? not one single person has a light to shed on the issue? ???????????????

From the module manager thread:

2. @PART[myPart]:Final {...} is for "tweakers", who want to release a set of reconfigurations of other peoples' parts that changes gameplay, or personal patch. The change with :Final are applied after all others are done.

Try just putting :Final at the end of your part MM declerations, to make sure they're loaded last.

Hey Technogeeky!

Thanks for the tip, i'll be trying it ASAP! i was starting to get frustrated :/

Also, the new version of module manager has "per mod passes": you can do stuff like:

@PART
[*]:AFTER[HotRockets]
{
}

But there are some conditions for this, you better check the MM thread.

[sarbian]

Just using AFTER as ippo said should work

Sarbian has mentioned me by name oh god OH GOD this is the best day EVAH *_*

Seriously though: I really want to thank you for Module Manager, it's such an awesome tool for this game and community. Thank you!
