Creating an AI's Sound Profile

Creating an AI's Sound Profile

The Sounds Component holds a Sound Profile which holds all of an AI's sound data. This allows AI to share the same sound data with only needing to rely on a single Sound Profile. Any changes made to a Sound Profile will affect any AI using that Sound Profile. However, as many sound profiles can be created as needed.

The first time you are setting up an AI's Sounds Component, you will receive a warning message about an AI needing a Sound Profile.

You can fix this by pressing the "Create New Sound Profile" button. This will open up a window that allows you to choose a location for your Sound Profile to be saved to.

If you already have a Sound Profile you would like to use, you can apply it manually to the Sound Profile slot.

Note: After you have finished creating or applying a Sound Profile, you will still need to apply sounds to it. This can be done by simply opening the foldouts and applying sounds to the slots or lists you want sounds on. Keep in mind, that some sounds require Animation Events. A guide on how to do this can be found on the Sound Profile section of the Emerald AI Wiki.
