Tanoy Sounds

[bigpickle 0]

Hey all,

I've added Loudspeakers_EP1 to my mission and had created a sound file to play from its location.

I defined the sound file in my CfgSounds :

class US_Tanoy

{

name = "US_Tanoy";

sound[] = {"Sound\US_Tanoy.ogg", 12,1,110};

titles[] = {};

};

And in the editor named my loudspeakers Loundspeakers_EP1 in the field name, and put a global execute into the objects init line so all human players can hear it.

This is from my mission.sqm file and shows the loudspeakers:

class Item255

{

position[]={1750.2195,47.719398,8786.7441};

azimut=345;

id=306;

side="EMPTY";

vehicle="Loudspeakers_EP1";

skill=0.60000002;

text="Loudspeakers_EP1";

init="[-1, {Loudspeakers_EP1 say ""US_Tanoy""; }] call cba_fnc_globalExecute;";

};

I tested and it works in the editor but when i export the mission, with Eliteness (or any other method) and run it through a dedicated host on my pc, it wont work, plus i have checked the dedi is running CBA which it is so i'm a bit stumped.

If anyone could help me I'd appreciate it.

Thanks

What about triggers? In condition: true, In activate: Loudspeakers_EP1 say "US_Tanoy";

Triggers will work yeah but there is no way (i think) of making the Tanoy sound file distance based like i can using the above method.

I'll go test then edit this post with the results.

# EDIT - It appears to work on the dedicated host so far using your method #

#EDIT CONFIRMED - Thank you DAP had no idea triggers could be used that way#
