Chat, votes, adverts, sounds not visible/audible to other players
« on: September 12, 2012, 12:19:19 AM »
Hello,

I recently started up a dedicated TTT server with ULX installed. I believe I've configured the server correctly in terms of permissions and general settings, but I've noticed that other players on my server are unable to see any chat message, advertisement, vote, or hear any sound I send/play, even when I have forceddownload enabled for those sounds. I can hear and see all of it correctly, but they say they can't. I'm hoping one of you guys can help me out with this.

Thanks,

Octopi

Try this FAQ, maybe it will help.

If not, then please, look for startup errors. Or errors in server console when an adv runs.
TBH, I'm not sure what would prevent other players from seeing advertisements.
Messages from server wouldn't be blocked by the variable, or by any ULX code.

May be a TTT issue.

Thanks for the quick response!

I wish it would be as easy as sv_alltalk 1, but I don't want to enable that because it would break the gameplay of TTT.
I'll check the console when an advert is displayed and look for any errors. I might also switch to Sandbox and see if the error still occurs, to possibly identify what the problem causer is.

When you say chat, you mean regular chat? ULX wouldn't be doing anything to change that behavior.

Adverts are another story. I'd try it on sandbox, though. If the problem persists on sandbox, try making yourself a regular user and see if you can see adverts.

Huh, well what do you know! It just started working again, and I'm not quite sure why. Clearing up the cache? I guess my players are just blind.

Thank you very much for the help :)
