Hi. I've been making maps in like some time now, and what i started to do was moving my files to the portal 2/portal2/maps folder so i could work with the maps in hammer.
I've made a lot of maps with the only sound: Metal_SeafloorCar.BulletImpact. It is normally used for the faith plate. But i've seen a lot of videos if people making maps, and when they choose sounds they have a lot of different sounds. So my questions are:

What could have went wrong?

How do i fix it?

I hope you will answer me.

Sounds like you have something typed into your filter, when selecting sound files. Get rid of it, and all the sound files will show up again.

What do you mean "typed into my filter"? :smile: Could you send me a picture of a solution?
I'm not sure which filter you are talking about.
When i select sounds it looks like this:

See where it says filter at the bottom? (If yours isn't in English, it's still in the same place.) If you have anything in that box, it will limit the selections you see in the browser window. If there is anything there, remove it.

Also, I don't have the hacking skills to see the images on your C drive, so you'd have to upload the picture someplace for anyone to see it. :smile:

Edit: You updated it just before I replied. :biggrin:

BTW: Dialog doesn't play in Hammer. If you go to the "theportalwiki.com", you can look up the dialog and file name for to use in Hammer.
