PlaySound won't play custom sounds

[Legacy_ShardFenix]

                I can't solve this. I have a bunch of custom sounds that I put in a hakpack. They show up when I'm editing sound objects, and they play fine in the editor and in game.

Then I try using these custom sounds through the PlaySound script (I've used AssignCommand and ExecuteScript on the PC to play it on), and no matter how I set it up, custom sounds will not work.

I changed the script to run a sound that comes with the game, and it does work.

Does PlaySound just not play sounds from hakpacks?

               it does play sounds from hak packs.

In my experience, Play Sound will not play on an object with a busy action queue. I'd try playing the sound on a placeable, and see what happens.

Also, not all sounds are the same. These should be in MONO as far as I am aware. That means only one sound channel, no left and right etc....

               Henesua nailed it *BANG*. Any sound using the scripted PlaySound command must be saved in .WAV MONO format.

Stereo .WAV files will not play or just come out sounding all static.

FP!

               I also believe there is a max filesize/length limit
in addition, the filename of audio file must be less than 16 characters (I think)

I tried converting a whole mp3 music file (4 minutes) into a wav mono - and didnt have much success getting it to play as a Static sound in the area.
Played in toolset, just didnt play in game.
