You should be able to as long as its in the sound directory. What sound are you trying to make work?

Great job!
sm_time_between_sounds - the time is in minutes or seconds?

Hell Phoenix, you mentioned:

Todo: * Multiple sound files for trigger word * Optimise keyvalues usage * Save user settings

That reminds me, I modded your plugin since v1.3 to our needs. Now I just have modded your plugin v1.5 for our needs, too and maybe it helps you for your upcoming features, because some features I modded are these your planned to do.

Now I introduce the extra features that comes up with my mod.

• Multiple sound files for trigger word. 1 sound file will be played randomly if a trigger has more than 1 sound file.
• new CVAR sm_sound_disablelimit to disable sound limit. We don't need sound trigger to be limited by player. Just the anti Spam thing ist just fine.
• Admins can trigger sound without spamprotections. So admin can spam the sounds
• to enable force download of a sound it has to be specified in the saysounds config file. ("mustdownload" "1")
• sound triggers are triggered in a sentence

so you have to be careful about the config file

       "muhaha"
        {
                "file"  "spackenz/EVIL-LAF.wav"
                "admin" "0"
        }
        "haha"
        {
                "file" "spackenz/haahaa21.mp3"
                "file_2" "spackenz/haahaa22.mp3"
                "file_3" "spackenz/haahaa23.mp3"
                "file_4" "spackenz/haahaa3.mp3"
                "admin" "0"
                "count" "4"
        }
        "bad"
        {
                "file"  "spackenz/killingisbadong.wav"
                "admin" "0"
                "mustdownload"  "1"
        }

count means the amount of files linked to the chat trigger haha. Chat trigger muhaha must be placed in the config file before haha because of if not, the plugin will find haha first, because of haha contains in muhaha. for sounds that should be forced download automatical on connection mustdownload has to be specified and set to 1.

All thinks I modded are specified with // MOD BY LAMDACORE and the changed code
for entire blogs there are a begin comment: // BEGIN MOD BY LAMDACORE and a end comment: // END MOD BY LAMDACORE for better reading the changes.

Maybe you could add some or all features in your original plugin.
Here is the plugin for all that want to have this features, too.

EDIT: Just figured out I had a bug in the precache sound .. should now work.

Ahh, the sounds don't live in the sound folder. I found them originally in an Eventscript, with paths like 'vo/ravenholm/yard_greetings.wav'. They are, I think, in compressed files included with the game install. Putting this path in saysounds.cfg doesn't work, though it does work in the SM Quake sounds plugin (http://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=58548). Don't know the differences bettween how saysounds and quake are written, but anyway, its no biggy. Say sounds don't cut each other off now, which is good enough for me.

Cheers!

Time is in seconds of course.

Thanks for the file lamda...Ill see about adding some of it in.

I can look into using the game sounds at some point, it shouldnt be all that difficult.

@Hell Phoenix:
thanks for the nice plugin.

Just one thing. I had a problem with !soundlist command (it did not list anything) and looked at the code.

I've seen that for !soundlist to work properly it is required to have "ExitSound" entry in the sounds config file and it should be placed exactly before all the sounds one wants to have in !soundlist. I did not have ExistSound entry in my config file (I've deleted it previously).

Could you make List_Sounds skipping ExitSound and JoinSound, not requiring to have those in the config file at all?

Thanks.

[Hell Phoenix]

No, they are required entries. There is no reason not to have them as they can be turned off and not used.

That would be great

I forgot to mention, i didn't change the code for Insurgency specific things, so my extra features wouldn't work for Insurgency.

[steambob]

Well, then it would be good to mention in the description (better directly in config file) that the entries are required.

While editing the config file I just deleted them because I did not need the sounds. May be other users would also do the same.

Anyway, you decide if this is important.

Hoihoi,

I tested my mod yesterday and figured it out .. the flooding protection thing don't fit our needs. In v1.3 I modded this feature on my own but till v1.5 I thought this isn't necessary anymore because the plugin provide it from now on.

So I modded this feature to be global and not player specific. It means that if somebody triggers a sound, all player have to wait the given amount of time before they can trigger the next sound. This prevent sound flooding by different players. Admins aren't included by this rule so they still can spam sounds.

I just attached the saysounds file like the other time, too.
Hell Phoenix, mabe this is a good feature for your official plugin, too.
