I am trying to re-edit a Crysis mod, and my old FMod fedited file still plays in game, but when I update it and rebuild it, it does not play in game.

I am noticing it might have something to do with the green S icon versus the red C icons I am seeing when I build or open my edited .fsb

What does the green S mean ?

edited. I just figured it out, the S is for single shot…  
the C is Continuous ?

either way its not my issue, perhaps bit rate of my sounds ?  
I see them in the sandbox 2 editor, but they dont play…

so my edits are being seen, just not played…

S is for Simple and C is for Complex. It just describes the type of sound event. Your issue would be related to something else.

Yes, Crysis 1 was using designer version 1.7, when trying to create sound events with newer versions, they just don’t work in the game, I’ve been puzzling over this for a long time
