Emit Sound at origin? - Page 2

No, client_cmd(id, "spk wav_file").

A distance check is very easy but the problem is the info, we don't know who this special user is, why does only he hear it? Is it some skill for a mod? Maby it's cuz he has some certain model.

If you tell me what's special about him, I can probably make it.
Though the origin part probably isn't possible...

It wouldn't be able to be scaled volume-wise based on distance, but you could do a distance check to make sure he's close enough and then speak the sound to him.

Yes, it's a skill for a mod I'm working on...

...but if the origin part isn't possible, you shouldn't waste your time to help me... I'll just have to think out another skill that reminds of the one that I had in mind... Maybe it'll be like the ESP skill in the Credits Mod or something like that.

Thanks anyways guys...

It's easily possible, but you won't be able to have the volume scale based on distance or be able to have the sound come from a specific direction if it's only able to be heard by specific users.

Get the origin of the player emitting the sound, then do a loop through all of the other players and use get_distance or get_distance_f to check to see if each player is close enough to hear the sound, and if they are, execute the sound as a speak in their console.

Actually, I was just thinking, and you could probably cheat and make it work by playing the sound where everyone can hear it, and immediately checking each player again to see if they are allowed to hear the sound or not. If they are not allowed to hear the sound, emit another sound on top of each player that is not allowed to hear it (using the same sound channel so it cancels the last one out) using practically no radius for the sound so it's prettymuch only able to be "heard" by the player not allowed to hear the main emit.

Sorry that I'm extremely horrible at explaining stuff, but I think that would work, and I hope you understand what I was trying to say.

That is smart

Actually, I just edited the post with something smarter and more practical.

I don't think your idea works. emit_sound is still global...

Is there a function to play a sound for a specific player wich you can also set volume and maby even pan?

Bad_Bud · 11-24-2007 , 03:59 Re: Emit Sound at origin?

Hmm I was thinking you could set the radius on it... so I guess I don't know what you would do then. What to the att flags do?

Well sorry for reviving this, but I came across this randomly and decided to post it. I think this has a feature that is requested here. https://gamebanana.com/gamefiles/4208
