[Scripting Question] Adding sound effects for potion use and leveling up

[Kadai]

I'm surprised these basic sounds aren't already implemented; where and how would I add the pbSEPlay("____") in the script to add the sound for these situations? I found the list of healing items in Pitem_itemEffects but was wondering if there's a way to affect them all at once, and I added a SE for leveling up via Rare Candy but I'm unsure where to add it for lvl ups in general. Any help is much appreciated.

Also, anyone know where to find the classic potion use SE? (gen 3 or later)

All healing items seem to call "pbHPItem", which in turn calls "pbItemRestoreHP", so you could try adding it to the top of the function "def pbItemRestoreHP(pkmn,restoreHP)" in script section PItem_Items. As for in-battle level ups, you have to find "def pbGainExpOne(idxParty,defeatedBattler,numPartic,expShare,expAll,showMessages=true)" in script section Battle_ExpAndMoveLearning and add your code just above this line:

pbDisplayPaused(_INTL("{1} grew to Lv. {2}!",pkmn.name,curLevel))

It's not surprising. You need to add them to the Animations that you use for those situations.

Great, this worked.

Do you know the cause of the scratchy reverb sound after so many sound effects (e.g. saving) in v18 and how to fix it? I don't recall this being in v16.

It's not a bug. It's the sfx-es themselves. You can replace then with your own.

Yeah I figured that was probably the case, but the sfx doesn't have the reverb when I listen to it outside the game, and neither lowering the audio file's volume and then saving it again nor replacing it with similar ones I've found online seems to help. Interestingly, it only happens in some map BGMs, typically new ones I've added, but lowering the volume on those doesn't fix things either.
