Revision as of 20:35, 6 November 2005
You say on the GCFScape FAQ that it's possible to override a file within a GCF by placing it in a certain directory. I'm trying to do this (see Help Desk#Custom voice for why) but haven't had any success yet. The GCF is source engine.gcf and the file is scripts/game_sounds_manifest.txt. So it belongs in Steam\SteamApps\username\source engine\hl2\scripts\game_sounds_manifest.txt? Or Steam\SteamApps\username\source engine.gcf\hl2\scripts\game_sounds_manifest.txt? I've even tried Steam\SteamApps\source engine\hl2\scripts\game_sounds_manifest.txt, but none of these has worked. I'd appreciate any help you might be able to give. —Maven (talk) 11:12, 5 Nov 2005 (PST)
Steam\SteamApps\account\Half-Life 2\hl2\scripts\game_sounds_manifest.txt. It's a relative path. --TomEdwards 11:51, 5 Nov 2005 (PST)
- Already tried that. It doesn't work. Sodabus and I think that the manifest in the GFC is overriding the one there. That's why I'm trying to do it this way. (Assuming, of course, that it is a different way.) —Maven (talk) 12:41, 5 Nov 2005 (PST)
- Presumably TomEdwards is correct, certainly if you look in the
binfolder for that paticular GCF file, the files that are automatically copied go to theSteam\SteamApps\account\Half-Life 2\bin\folder. I have, however, heard of other people having problems overwriting files in this particular GCF file (skill.cfg comes to mind), and I don't recall anyone ever solving the issue. Perhaps you should ask yourself how thecounter-strike source shared.gcffile knows to map to theSteam\SteamApps\account\sounter-strike source\folder? I have no answer to that question.--Nem 19:35, 6 Nov 2005 (PST)
