Description
- Description:
- Plays positional sound with given filename on every computer on network.
- Groups:
- Sounds
Syntax
- Syntax:
- playSound3D [filename, soundSource, isInside, soundPosition, volume, soundPitch, distance, offset, local]
- Parameters:
- filename: String - See Arma 3: Sound Files for available file names or Example 3 to use mission files
- soundSource: Object - The object emitting the sound. If "sound position" is specified this parameter is ignored
- isInside: Boolean - (Optional, default false) - true to simulate a sound played inside a building or similar
- soundPosition: PositionASL - (Optional, default [0,0,0]) Position for sound emitter. Will override "soundSource" position.
- volume: Number - (Optional, default 1) Sound volume. A value greater than 5 gets capped
- soundPitch: Number - (Optional, default 1)
- 1.0 → normal
- 0.5 → Darth Vader
- 2.0 → Chipmunks
- distance: Number - (Optional, default 0) How far the sound is audible, in meters.
0
means no maximum distance - since 2.00
- offset: Number - (Optional, default 0) Offset in seconds. Same as with playMusic
- since 2.06
- local: Boolean - (Optional, default false) If true the sound will not be broadcast over network
- Return Value:
- Nothing
Examples
- Example 1:
playSound3D ["A3\Sounds_F\sfx\blip1.wav", player]
- Example 2:
playSound3D ["A3\Sounds_F\sfx\blip1.wav", player, false, getPosASL player, 1, 1, 0]
- Example 3:
playSound3D [getMissionPath "mySound.ogg", player]; // to play a mission directory sound
- Example 4:
- Sound file extension must be specified even if a config entry has none:
playSound3D ["A3\Sounds_F\sfx\alarm_independent", player]; // no sound playSound3D ["A3\Sounds_F\sfx\alarm_independent.wss", player]; // alarm

- Currently, playSound3D is not JIP compatible, so joining players will not hear the sound if is started before and is still playing when player joins.

-
When object is supplied but not a position, the position is taken from object, otherwise the position is taken from supplied position. That doesn't mean that when position is taken from object it is going to follow object when it changes position. The sound is generated at object position and it stays there.
One other important note: If soundSource param is objNull then this command develops the same bug with first person view as createSoundSource and say3D. If soundSource is player then the bug is inverted. It seems that passing vehicle player as soundSource param is the only way to make it behave correctly when vehicles involved. - Posted on October 7, 2020 - 12:24 (UTC)

- The sound will be distorted according to the Doppler effect when passing by the sound source quickly.
