What is EmitSoundAny

So, what's the point of this?

Well, it's to provide a simple include that plugins can use to have CS:GO and DOTA2 compatible sound playing. If you have read the CS:GO Quirks page, you know that CS:GO doesn't work with PrecacheSound and EmitSound without having to go through some tricks.

So... I wrote this include, which neatly wraps the game detection and precaches/emits appropriately.

The wrappers it includes are:

stock bool:PrecacheSoundAny(const String:szPath[], bool:preload=false)

stock EmitSoundAny(const clients[], 
                 numClients, 
                 const String:sample[], 
                 entity = SOUND_FROM_PLAYER, 
                 channel = SNDCHAN_AUTO, 
                 level = SNDLEVEL_NORMAL, 
                 flags = SND_NOFLAGS, 
                 Float:volume = SNDVOL_NORMAL, 
                 pitch = SNDPITCH_NORMAL, 
                 speakerentity = -1, 
                 const Float:origin[3] = NULL_VECTOR, 
                 const Float:dir[3] = NULL_VECTOR, 
                 bool:updatePos = true, 
                 Float:soundtime = 0.0)

stock EmitSoundToClientAny(client,
                 const String:sample[],
                 entity = SOUND_FROM_PLAYER,
                 channel = SNDCHAN_AUTO,
                 level = SNDLEVEL_NORMAL,
                 flags = SND_NOFLAGS,
                 Float:volume = SNDVOL_NORMAL,
                 pitch = SNDPITCH_NORMAL,
                 speakerentity = -1,
                 const Float:origin[3] = NULL_VECTOR,
                 const Float:dir[3] = NULL_VECTOR,
                 bool:updatePos = true,
                 Float:soundtime = 0.0)

stock EmitSoundToAllAny(const String:sample[], 
                 entity = SOUND_FROM_PLAYER, 
                 channel = SNDCHAN_AUTO, 
                 level = SNDLEVEL_NORMAL, 
                 flags = SND_NOFLAGS, 
                 Float:volume = SNDVOL_NORMAL, 
                 pitch = SNDPITCH_NORMAL, 
                 speakerentity = -1, 
                 const Float:origin[3] = NULL_VECTOR, 
                 const Float:dir[3] = NULL_VECTOR, 
                 bool:updatePos = true, 
                 Float:soundtime = 0.0)

stock EmitAmbientSoundAny(const String:sample[],
                        const Float:pos[3],
                        entity = SOUND_FROM_WORLD,
                        level = SNDLEVEL_NORMAL,
                        flags = SND_NOFLAGS,
                        Float:vol = SNDVOL_NORMAL,
                        pitch = SNDPITCH_NORMAL,
                        Float:delay = 0.0)

stock StopSoundAny(entity, channel, const String:name[])

(Note that EmitSoundAny is missing its any:.. because SourcePawn doesn't have any way to process those outside of VFormat, which is inappropriate for this)

Usage of this is the same as playing sounds in most game using SourceMod:

PHP Code:

public OnMapStart()
{
    AddFileToDownloadsTable("sound/sourcemod/mymod/bacon.mp3");
    PrecacheSoundAny("sourcemod/mymod/bacon.mp3");
}

// In response to something
    EmitSoundToAllAny("sourcemod/mymod/bacon.mp3"); 


Edit: Minor update to make the variables static.

Edit 2: Edit to make g_bCheckedEngine actually save its value to stop GetEngineVersion from being called every time.
