Hello,

might someone know a Lua-script for GameGuru, that plays 5 or 10 different RANDOM Soundfiles?
Taking these soundfiles from a own, extra folder at the audiobank?

Might someone know help to this issue?

Hello,

to clearify for what a script I am looking:

I do mean, when the player enters a special Sound-Trigger-Zone, to that the script is attached, only one sound is played. This sound is randomly chosen out off 5-10 sounds at an own folder at the audiobank.

currently you will need to use character sound sets for this as you can only specify 1 or 2 sounds per object.

so you can't use a zone directly but you can tell the zone to play the sounds linked to a character with those sounds

inside audiobank is a character folder, you need to create a new one and copy the format from the others, place your sounds inside one of the folders (i recommend sticking to the ones that are used by the stock entities - such as onAggro or onHurt)
name your files 0.wav, 1.wav, 2.wav etc
now set a character which calls this folder in it's script's init(e)
SetCharacterSound(e,"name of folder inside character folder")

then place your zone and tell it to play the sound from the desired folder and character
PlayCharacterSound(*character entity number*, "name of folder inside your own folder - onHurt etc")

it will automatically pick one at random i believe

Hello smallg,

thank You for Your answer and help ))
I will go for this hint.

I've recently started playing with Omega Core from Magique Productions and if you are half reasonable with script you can generate any number of sfx and play them on demand without zone or entity (although using it within a zone would be relatively simple also.)

Be keen to see if this is developed further because the sound and input functions alone cover so many of my core needs with GG that it's my new goto atm.
