Chat Sounds

MistaGee · **Plugin Info:**

I've coded a li'l plugin that will play a sound file upon user chat. See this example:

A server administrator puts a lot of sounds onto the server and gives all users a link where they can download the sound package. Now we need a mechanism to make the clients play these sounds. That's what my plugin is for.
The Plugin basically looks into the specified SERVER directory and tries to find a file whose name fits to the text the user said. If such a file is found, it is played to all players. If not, nothing happens. If a client doesn't have this specific sound file, he will be the only one to not hear anything.

There are two CVars to be set:
amx_csnd_dir: determines the directory where to look for the sounds. Default is "misc".
amx_csnd_hide: hides the said alias if a sound file was found. defaults to 0.

the player only has to give the name of the wav file. For Example, if you want to play "sound/misc/test.wav", you will have to "say /test". The rest is done by the script if amx_csnd_dir was set correctly. If you "say test", nothing will happen. This is to prevent unwanted sound playing during normal chat.

BTW: I do not owe credits to anybody because I had the idea today in school and coding for this one hasn't been too hard actually, so I didn't need to look anywhere.

so do I but obviously mods who can approve don't... I know there's as many of such plugins out there as sand at the beach, but mine is the simplest of 'em all...

but one questions, what if nobody has the sound, then what? sounds kinda booty if nobody can download it

just a thought :/

MistaGee · 10-27-2005 , 07:10

use the above plugin to make users download the sounds, and mine to actually play them.

sirdrinkalot · 03-16-2006 , 09:46 Any chance

That the sounds can be turned on and off?

Spamming's driving me nuts.

MistaGee · 03-16-2006 , 10:44

the only way to do that is to pause the plugin; there's no cvar or something to do it.
