Hi,
I want to play a sound from a given location, so I use emit_sound, but I also want this sound to be different for each player on server.
Is it possible?

[lexzor]

yes: https://www.amxmodx.org/api/amxmodx/emit_sound

[Dexon]

I already tried to check the syntax for any further information, but i didnt succed. Can you give me an example? Because i still dont see the solution.
To be clear: I want to emit sound Peter.wav from client 1. If client 2 set his personal setting to not Peter .wav, but Alise.wav then client 1 should hear the Peter.wav and client 2 the Alise.wav from the same emit.

i hope this will help you. i don't know if that plugin works or is what you need, but in emit_sound syntax at sample parameter you must put the song path that you want to emit. in the above code i was trying to show you how it should look.

and there already is a plugin that is doing a great job and get s updates when it needs: https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?p=2117299

In this sma, (if im not mistaken) if someone emits sound from menu, or via cmd it will play the sound the player chose.
Here:

PHP Code:

emit_sound(id, CHAN_AUTO, szParsedSongPath, VOL_NORM, ATTN_NORM, 0, PITCH_NORM); //LET'S EMIT THE SELECTED SONG 


And here:

PHP Code:

emit_sound(id, CHAN_AUTO, g_szSongs[iSongID][szPath], VOL_NORM, ATTN_NORM, 0, PITCH_NORM); //LET'S EMIT THE PLAYER SONG USING THAT GLOBAL VARIABLE WHERE WE HAVE PLAYLIST 


They both emit the given sound what the given player chose. But I dont see any reference to my question. They emit a sound, but it doesnt show anywhere that the emitted sound would be different for each player on the server. I dont even see looping through all players or calling all players to check what they chose and use that sound. So the sound won't be different for each player, it will be the same sound as the player who typed the cmd chose, and not what each of them chose. Hope I wasnt confusing.
If im wrong, please enlight me.

in variable

PHP Code:

g_iUserSongID[id] 


we store what song player is choosing after select it in the menu
so, if player select second song in menu, song id will be 1.

PHP Code:

static iSongID;
    iSongID = g_iUserSongID[id] //LET'S GET PLAYER SONG ID IN A STATIC VARIABLE ASSUMING THAT FUNCTION IS USED FREQUENTLY 


here we create a new static var to not do something like this

PHP Code:

emit_sound(id, CHAN_AUTO, g_szSongs[g_iUserSongID[id]][szPath], VOL_NORM, ATTN_NORM, 0, PITCH_NORM); //LET'S EMIT THE PLAYER SONG USING THAT GLOBAL VARIABLE WHERE WE HAVE PLAYLIST 


so this

PHP Code:

static iSongID;
    iSongID = g_iUserSongID[id] //LET'S GET PLAYER SONG ID IN A STATIC VARIABLE ASSUMING THAT FUNCTION IS USED FREQUENTLY

emit_sound(id, CHAN_AUTO, g_szSongs[iSongID][szPath], VOL_NORM, ATTN_NORM, 0, PITCH_NORM); //LET'S EMIT THE PLAYER SONG USING THAT GLOBAL VARIABLE WHERE WE HAVE PLAYLIST 


will emit g_szSongs[iSongID][szPath]. assuming that iSongID is 1 (that means the second song from menu),

g_szSongs[iSongID][szPatth] is sounds/misc/song2.wav

[lexzor]

so, let's say you want a command that will emit a sound for all connected players that selected a sound

you can do something like this

PHP Code:

public emit_for_all_players(id)
{
    new iPlayers[MAX_PLAYERS], iNum;
    get_players(iPlayers, iNum, "ch");

    for(new i, iPlayer, iSongID; i < iNum; i++)
    {
        iPlayer = iPlayers[i];

        if(is_user_connected(iPlayer))
        {
            iSongID = g_iUserSongID[iPlayer];

            if(iSongID != NOT_SELECTED_SONG)
            {
                emit_sound(iPlayer, CHAN_AUTO, g_szSongs[iSongID][szPath], VOL_NORM, ATTN_NORM, 0, PITCH_NORM); 
            }
        }
    }

    client_print(0, print_chat, "[SONGS] Admin emit your selected sound");

    return PLUGIN_HANDLED;
} 


in that loop we get song id from every player, check if user is connected and he has selected a song then we emit the song he selected

[Dexon]

Thank you for taking time, but Im not quite sure that you understand my question.
What function you just wrote is emitting sound from all players, but I want to emit a sound from ONLY 1 player, and every client should hear that sound BUT that sound what each of them chosen already.
1 emit, different sounds for different players.
Lets say, there are 16 players on the server. One of them emits a sound, but the other 15 players hear a different sound what they chose from lets say a menu.

[lexzor]

that's exactly what the above code is doing. we store player selected song id in a variable then we use that variable to emit the song he selected.

my explanations are really bad maybe that s why you don't understand what i did

[Dexon]

Maybe I dont understand yea, but the code u sent is emitting sound from all players online and selected a sound, so if 16 players online + selected sound it will be played 16 times, 16 different places. its not exactly what I want, because I want to emit from 1 place, but 16 different sound for each player.
The exact thing i want to do:
I want to replace shooting sounds. I already did it, but I also want for example if someone shoots with ak, then each player should hear different sounds that they chose from a menu, when the player with ak shoots.
