A million dollar question, lets suppose i wanna multiple sounds for my weapons, 4 example one shot sound is for outdoor with an echo effect and the second one is 4 indoor without echo


What i would need to get it?Is there some gunspec or FPE functions to edit or is a script needed?
If yes, there would be a zone in the entrance into a building needed i guess that triggers the sound switch 4 the weapon right?

I imagine in other engines this is achieved using audio post processing effects, a bit like how ReShade adds filters to the entire image, these audio effects process all the sounds in the sound FX "layer" i.e. everything not designated UI sounds or music. AFAIK, GG doesn't support this, although I recall AmenMoses doing some experiments using LUA to generate echos based on distance from an object. It would be cool it we could implement this tech, GG's audio system is currently even more primitive than its lightmapping.

Agree, The quality of PBR materials in compare with other engines looks outdated, not sure if its the textures resolution problem or not but i think its the lightmapping.

Entity based 3D sounds don't move in GG, i.e. at the point you say PlaySound( e, slot ) the sound will come from the point the entity is at.

Global sounds and non3D sounds follow the player.

Was something I planned to fix before my Visual Studio screwed up.
