we just played some ctf training matches in baseoa and it happened several times that the announcer didnt tell that the enemy team got our flag. i dont know if this problem is caused by mumble, which i used at the same time, or if this is a bug in openarena. i also dont know if thats the only message the announcer doesnt tell from time to time. this is a _huge_ disadvantage, think of league matches..

I have noticed that playing online. I presume the announcer was looking the other way or having a drink of tea?

I often have the feeling I'm missing flag announcements. What I did notice is that sometimes the enemy takes the flag, then after ~1.5 seconds I hear the announcement. But it should be instantaneous, right? (s_useOpenAL "0", no pulse audio)

same here. When i died and run back to defend our flag, i notice its gone, then 2 secs later i hear "blue/red scores"(depends on what team im in ofcourse)! I often think it has to do with to many sounds goin on @ once, but then again when, i play on Xbattle server it always announces right. (yes yes i love xbattle, the server coming back up soon with 4 maps to start with) So it doesnt have anything to do with 2 many sounds @ once. I dont use mumble or any other teamspeak program, so thats not it either.
So sorry i cant help u to fix a settings problem for this. But your not the only one either

I didn't pay attention to these... When I have the flag, I check the bottom-right icons to see if my flag is in my base, regularly. I play often without sound or very lower sound too.

"Detailed" is nice, but if it gets in the way of clarity, it ceases being a nice addition and becomes a problem. - TVT Want to contribute? Read this.

No, the code will only play one announcement every 0.75 seconds, including things like "you have lost the lead". If many things happen at the same time, a flag announcement could be delayed for several seconds. However I didn't see any obvious bug which could cause a flag announcement to be dropped.

I remember of having this issue, I didn't experience it in OA 0.7.1, and so I'd say it appeared later, maybe when flag sounds were changed & announcement sounds redone.

Do you know any way to get rid of useless messages, or give priority to the flag messages? Do you know where is the code which does this?

seta cg_drawRewards "0" turns off the Excellent, Defense, Impressive and so on thingies, you don't get it displayed as a "medal" and you don't hear the sound, but I still notice the "Enemy has your flag" being dropped. Typically when I just return the flag and an enemy was waiting for that on the flagspot... Often means he slips by me, I realize it whe I hear the enemy-capture announce.

Well code/cgame/cg_event.c is where the EV_GLOBAL_TEAM_SOUND event is processed and the appropriate sound is added to the buffer. I dunno if the sound dropping problem occurs there, or earlier (perhaps in server code) or in the buffering system. Implementing a priority system would be a lot of work.

As PopeJo pointed out, the issue remains (or not ? I forgot and got used to it) file * flagcapture_opponent.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 22050 Hz flagcapture_yourteam.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 22050 Hz flagreturn_opponent.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 22050 Hz flagreturn_yourteam.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 22050 Hz flagtaken_opponent.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 44100 Hz flagtaken_yourteam.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 44100 Hz voc_base_attack.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 44100 Hz voc_blue_returned.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 44100 Hz voc_blue_scores.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 44100 Hz voc_enemy_1flag.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 44100 Hz voc_enemy_flag.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 44100 Hz voc_red_returned.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 44100 Hz voc_red_scores.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 44100 Hz voc_team_1flag.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 44100 Hz voc_team_flag.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 44100 Hz voc_you_flag.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 44100 Hz
Also, here are a few missing sounds, according to: http://openarena.ws/board/index.php?topic=3167.msg25528#msg25528------------------------------------------------------------------- \sound\teamplay\ ------------------------------------------------------------------- flagcap_blu flagcap_red flagret_blu flagret_red flagreturn_yourteam_02 flagtaken_opponent_01 flagtaken_yourteam_01 flagtaken_yourteam_02 flagtk_blu flagtk_red
If I have time I'll try to test this replacing a few sounds with an additionnal pk3 on unpure servers ..

I think:
It has nothing to do with missing soundfiles. It occurs also in Free For All deathmatch mode. But than the " tied for the lead" or "taken the lead" announcements. If you gain an excellent award (kill twice in 5 seconds) than the announcer only tells you excellent, but not "taken the lead"
It goes like this:
Excellent, Excellent,....... "you have lost the lead"
My guess therefore is that it is a mixer problem when 2 sounds start at the same moment.
