This thread shows how to use new interfaces and as example emitsound and some fx effects in a server plugin.

I hope to see funny results :)

too bad there are only like 8 effects :(

Does anyone know what the flags are for emitsound. I would ask over there but am too lazy to register for the forums :D.

What I'm trying to do is emit the sound at the location of the player but when they move away from that spot they move away from the sound too. Right now the sound follows the player wherever they go.

doh...maybe it would help to do a little research BEFORE asking. soundflags.h seems to define the flags :P

Didn't help me accomplish what I wanted though. :(

Welcome to last year.

It would still be nice to know how to use EmitSound. :D

I've been trying to learn how to use it, and even make some basic functions to make it easier, but it always crashes the server when I either use PrecacheSound, or EmitSound.


void EmitSound(int index, const char *soundfile)
{
MRecipientFilter mrf;
IEngineSound *esound = NULL;
mrf.AddPlayer(index);
bool play;
if (esound->IsSoundPrecached(soundfile) == true) {
play = true;
}
else {
play = esound->PrecacheSound(soundfile, true);
}
if (play == true) {
esound->EmitSound((IRecipientFilter &)mrf, index, CHAN_AUTO, soundfile, 0.7, ATTN_NORM, 0, 100);
}
}

And don't neglect DispatchEffect
