Hi guys, I was trying to add my new gun, with also a new sound, but I can't seem to find a way to understand what is with the index numbers. From the xml editor I don't see my .ogg file that I created. I also added my sound name in the sounds xml files at the end of the list. But when creating the gun and checking the sounds name from other weapons, they seem to have a index number, but on the sounds file there are no index numbers. Can anyone help?

Open Data-1.13\TableData\Items\Weapons.xml, find your weapon entry, set the following tags:
<sSound>XXX</sSound>
<SilencedSound>XXX</SilencedSound>
<sBurstSound>XXX</sBurstSound>
<sSilencedBurstSound>XXX</sSilencedBurstSound>
You can also define additional sound effects here:
<sReloadSound>XXX</sReloadSound>
<sLocknLoadSound>XXX</sLocknLoadSound>
Where XXX is the id of the sound in TableData\Sounds\Sounds.xml for single shot sounds or additional sounds, and in BurstSounds.xml for burst sounds where %d is substituted with burst length.
Id is simple number of XML line in that file.

Hey Sevenfm, well I did tried it, I made it that way the first time but it wouldn't work. I also added my file that is named "SOUNDS\WEAPONS\556\5,56 SIG M400 ELITE SINGLE SHOT.ogg" on both tabledata\sounds.xml files, the one on Data-1.13 and the normal Data folder. On the Sounds.xml file from "Data-13" the line number is 503, but when I shoot with the weapon I can't hear anything (I am using a rifle so only single shot, no burst or auto fire). On the "Data" folder I have the line with number 488, but it's not the same sound that I have. Any idea why?

You don't need to put anything into Data xml folder unless you want to play in vanilla mode.
It's not exact line number in text file but number of XML entry, which also may be starting from 0 (I don't remember exactly), so you need to try it or check any other weapon (look at line number in Sounds.xml file, compare with XML entry in Weapons.xml for that weapon and you will know the offset between text line and xml entry number).

Yeah, you were right, I am using notepad++, apparently there is a 2 line difference between the sounds line and the actual sound (or something like that.)

Thank you very much!
