I have a black hawk helicopter on my map now I was wondering how do I give it the sound? I got the file and everything so yeah I hope someone can help me port it in?

something like

helicopter play_sound();

play_sound()
{
	waittime = 5; //length of sound
 
	while(1)
	{
		self playsound ("sound_name");
		wait waittime;
	}
}

So where do I put the sound file?

I mean like what goes where?

Or you can make it wait for the sound to finish automatically instead of struggling with wait lines to decide how long the sound lasts.

play_sound()
{
	while(1)
	{
		self playsound ("sound_name", "sound_done");
		self waittill("sound_done");
	}
}

Edit: This will work for any sound, so it waits for any sound to finish automatically.

Where do you copy and paste this stuff too?

how would you set it up so that its 3d, for the section of the heli path where the heli is not near the player?

To explain more about this: You need to add sound in raw/sounds, then make soundalias for the sound, check in raw/soundalias for them. Then specify in what folder the sound is in soundalias and "sound_name" in this script is the first part of text in the soundalias. You can add this in mapname.gsc but need to specify in what its played in, which I dont know how. Remember to call soundalias in mod.csv sound,soundalias,,all_sp or mp

thanks we got it now we new how to do all that, it was more linking to to a model so when the model is not near the layer the sound is not either, but thanks to BluntStuffy it works
