I need help making a SourceMod plugin for when a player dies, a sound clip plays.

Every time I try to make one, I cannot code in everything to make the sound play.

Is there a way to make a sound play when a player dies?

1. I'm pretty sure this should be in the "Scripting" section, not the "General" section.
2. https://wiki.alliedmods.net/Team_For...s#player_death

When any player dies? Or just when a specific player dies?

The answer's yes, fortunately.
Is there a way to make a sound play when a player died in Team Fortress 2?

public OnPluginStart()
{
	AddFileToDownloadsTable("sound/deathsound/deathsound.mp3"); //Add custom sound to downloads table.
	PrecacheSound("*/deathsound/deathsound.mp3", true); //Precache it.
	PrefetchSound("*/deathsound/deathsound.mp3"); //Then finally prefetch it. Whatever that means.

	HookEvent("player_death", Event_PlayerDeath); //When you die, the plugin gets told and will do something when it finds out.
}

public Event_PlayerDeath(Handle:event, const String:name[], bool:dontBroadcast) //Do something when you die.
{
	int client = event.GetInt("userid"); //Get the client who died.
	ClientCommand( client, "play */deathsound/deathsound.mp3" ); //Play the sound via the "play" command to the victim.
	EmitSoundToClient(client, "*/deathsound/deathsound.mp3"); //Play the sound via EmitSoundToClient to the victim.
}

NOTE: This is untested, but this should be a good start.
NOTE 2:
I've had issues with the various EmitSounds before, ranging from not playing at all to not playing to everybody to playing to everybody.
It's kinda random, and I don't fully understand it.

Good list. Thank you for posting.

Do you want the sound to only play to the player that died and everyone near them? Or do you want every player to hear it?

This will play a gamesound to the player when he dies. I play the sound twice which makes the volume louder. I added a check to ensure that the sound is only played to human players, not bots.

PHP Code:

#include <tf2_stocks>

#pragma semicolon 1
#pragma newdecls required

#define DEATH    "/misc/taps_02.wav"

public Plugin myinfo =
{
    name = "[TF2] Play Sound on Death",
    author = "vladimirdog2021",
    description = "Play a sound when player dies",
    version = "1.0",
    url = ""
}

public void OnPluginStart()
{
    HookEvent("player_death", Event_Death);
}

public void OnMapStart()
{
    PrecacheSound(DEATH);
}

public void Event_Death(Handle hEvent, char[] name, bool dontBroadcast)
{
    int client = GetClientOfUserId(GetEventInt(hEvent, "userid"));
    
    if(!IsFakeClient(client))
    {
        EmitSoundToClient(client, DEATH);
        EmitSoundToClient(client, DEATH);
    }
}

That.

And the sound should only play when you or your teammates die in Team Fortress 2 and not the enemy players.

Does the plugin play the sound if it's enabled?
