Added new code user "Celena Luna" gave me to loop the audio,but still cant get it to work.
Right now the code is set up like this:

Tried the following:

:public ambience_loop()
:public ambience_loop(i)
:public ambience_loop(id)
:changing task duration to more than 50sec, audio files are exactly 50 sec long now.

Still cant find where im wrong,ill like to learn to solve it with reasoning to where im mistaken

thanks to everyone

If thats the plugin then why not post in that plugins thread.

[chuttenjr]

Already did on 09-15-18:

Nobody replied,so i continued by asking in suggestions,then someone pointed me out to ask for it on scripting help...a few users have given me some clues about how it should be written,but no one seems to give me a final fix for the code.

Also,both original creators haven´t been active for many years

I know that you all have your own interests on your own work and i respect that,but as i told earlier im not just asking for someone to help my a.. out,i want to learn how the missing part of the code that activates the loop function works on the script with the rest of the plugin so in later projects i have learned a bit more about coding.

Thanks all

Cheers!!

If you want to loop sound for rain, there's already support for that in gamedll. This code is working.

public plugin_precache()
{
	precache_sound("ambience/rain.wav");
	
	new Entity = create_entity("ambient_generic");
	Set_KVD(Entity, "message", "ambience/rain.wav", "ambient_generic");
	Set_KVD(Entity, "spawnflags", "1", "ambient_generic");
	Set_KVD(Entity, "health", "10", "ambient_generic");
	Set_KVD(Entity, "pitch", "100", "ambient_generic");
	Set_KVD(Entity, "pitchstart", "100", "ambient_generic");
	Set_KVD(Entity, "volstart", "10", "ambient_generic");
	Set_KVD(Entity, "angles", "0 0 0", "ambient_generic");
	DispatchSpawn(Entity);
}

stock Set_KVD(EntityID, const K[], const V[], const C[])
{
	set_kvd(0, KV_ClassName, C);
	set_kvd(0, KV_KeyName, K);
	set_kvd(0, KV_Value, V);
	set_kvd(0, KV_fHandled, 0);
	
	dllfunc(DLLFunc_KeyValue, EntityID, 0);
}

would that loop "rain.wav" sound only when event "weather_type", "1" from plugin is working or all the time even if rain is not present on map??

It will sound all time, but you can remove entity to stop the sound.

[chuttenjr]

is it impossible to loop sounds "rain.wav" and "rainroof.wav" already precached on plugin??

tried adding this but did not do anything:

PHP Code:

public ambience_loop()   
{  
  
    set_task(50.0, "ambience_loop") // Lasts 50s then loop after 50s 

    //Go through all players 
    new players[32], iNum 
    get_players(players, iNum) 

    for(new i; i<iNum;i++) 
    { 
         client_cmd(i, "speak ambience/rain.wav")  
         client_cmd(i, "speak ambience/rainroof.wav")  
    } 


[HamletEagle]

client_cmd(players[i], ...)

[chuttenjr]

public ambience_loop ()
{

set_task(50.0, "ambience_loop") // Lasts 50s then loop after 50s

//Go through all players
new players[32], iNum
get_players(players, iNum)

for(new i; i<iNum;i++)
{
client_cmd(players[i], "speak ambience/rain.wav")
client_cmd(players[i], "speak ambience/rainroof.wav")

still not working...i dont know what i am doing wrong-....

[chuttenjr]

anybody??
