I'd like some sounds to play only within a specific range, not across the whole map, so I think in this case I need to use 3D sound flag.
Can I make a sound to be played at a very low volume if the camera of the player is very far away from the source, and at the highest volume if the camera of the player is very near the source?
i may be wrong (long ago since i used sounds in one of my maps ^^) but as far as I remember you can also play not 3D sounds attached to units, these sounds will only be hear able for players who see the actual unit.
correct me if i am wrong pls.
Yeah, and that's where Min Distance, Max Distance and Distance Cutoff come in, I believe. If somebody knows what these actually mean, I would appreaciate it. I've wasted enough time already playing with these sound properties, and I couldn't make any sense from it.
Well Max distance, I suppose, is the maximum distance from the source you can be and still hear the sound.
I am not 100% sure what Distance Cutoff does.
I always set my Minimum range to 600 on 3d sounds, otherwise it might sometimes appear like the sound isnt playing at all, when in relality it is just played at a very low volume.
Don't bother too much with these values, they are often fine left to default.
Since you are in the sound editor anyway, you can look at the different sounds that are already in the game, and how the values are there, and how they seem to affect ingame sound playback (that was how I found out why I couldn't hear my 3D sounds for example )
Distance Cutoff is how far away the camera can scroll away from the sound source before it can no longer be heard, I believe. That way it seems to be getting softer and softer as you get closer and closer to this distance away from the source.
I will be AFK for a couple of days you guys hold down the fort while I am gone. I will be checking in on my phone but that will severly limit me. Be back saturday!
I just got to watch the video because even though I was there I was trying to work out tech problems with the chat since I was the social media guy so I was distracted but check it out guys the video is super fucking great!
Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.
They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled
