Add ADS sound with a displayaddEH

[Robustcolor 30]

Is it possible to add a ADS sound from initPlayerLocal? I've been trying to solve it with the code below but it wont play any sound.

initPlayerLocal.sqf

(findDisplay 46) displayAddEventHandler ["MouseButtonClick", {
params ["_control", "_button"];
if (_button == 1) then {
if (cameraView == "GUNNER") then {
playSound [ironsightsout, true];
}else{
playSound [ironsightsin, true];
};
};
}];

are you passing string as the soundName to playSound?

class CfgSounds
{
	class ironsightsin
	{
		name = "ironsightsin";
		sound[] = {"\ironsights_in.ogg", 1, 1};
		titles[]={0,""};
	};
	class ironsightsout
	{
		name = "ironsightsout";
		sound[] = {"\ironsights_out.ogg", 1, 1};
		titles[]={0,""};
	};
};

yeah you should definitely add quotation marks:

 

playSound ["ironsightsout", true];

Make sure display 46 is available before adding the event. InitPlayerLocal.sqf runs before it is available.

//initPlayerLocal.sqf

h = [] spawn {
	disableSerialization;

	_display = findDisplay 46; //Immediately get display 46

	waitUntil{ !isNull ( findDisplay 46 ) }; //Wait until display is available

	hint format[ "D: %1", _display ]; //Show initial = No Display

	_display = findDisplay 46; //Get display gain
  
	sleep 1; //Quick pause just to make sure we see systemchat
  
	systemChat format[ "D: %1", _display ]; //Show after = Display 46
};

Thanks @gc8 and @Larrow it works now.

 

Needed this for it to work.

waituntil {!isnull (finddisplay 46)};

Any suggestion how i can disable the playSound if a player only zooms and not aiming down sights? I'm using !(weaponlowered) and !(Visiblemap) so it don't execute the code in those conditions.

 

If a player has the weapon raised and zooms it executes the playSound, how can i prevent it from executing when doing this? If the weapon is lowered and the player zooms it don't execute as wanted.

waituntil {!isnull (finddisplay 46)};
(findDisplay 46) displayAddEventHandler ["MouseButtonDown", {
params ["_control", "_button"];

if ((_button == 1) && ((!(weaponLowered player) && !(visibleMap))
then {
if (cameraView isEqualTo "GUNNER") then {
playSound ["ironsightsout", true];
};
if (cameraView isEqualTo "INTERNAL" || {cameraView isEqualTo "EXTERNAL"}) then {
playSound ["ironsightsin", true];
};};
}];
