Swim Tutorial Request

I'd like to request a Swim Region tutorial.

My old swim region exported fine, exept no swimming sound.

Added swimming sound and now I do a stack dump everytime my avatar jumps in the pool.

Not cool bubba.

I have not tried the new method for making swimregions. Let me give it a shot in the upcoming days though and I'll write the accompanying tutorial. Sounds like a cool tutorial to do.

"Swim sounds" are completely separate from swim regions and surfaces. They're really just watery footstep sounds. You'll want to refer to the footstep sounds tutorial. (does that exist on the new wiki? :? ) Unfortunately, some footstep sounds may unexpectedly and inconsistently crash uru. If you crash when entering a footstep region, try changing the sound for that region to something else.

Er.......okay, I've never had a footstep area cause Uru to crash. Until now.

And, sure I could change it to a different sound I guess.

But wouldn't it be kind of funny to hear hardwood floor footsteps while swimming?? :?

Well, I use the "water" surface because one of the others crashed uru. :P
