Looping a sound on an entity? - tonitoni1998 - 02-26-2013

i tried this:
Code:
void OnEnter()
{
SoundPlay();
}

void SoundPlay()
{
void PlaySound2(string &in timer_name)
{
    SetEntityActive("sound_1", true);
    SetEntityActive("sound_2", false);
    AddTimer("", 2, "PlaySound3");
}

void PlaySound3(string &in timer_name)
{
    SetEntityActive("sound_2", true);
    SetEntityActive("sound_1", false);
    AddTimer("", 2, "PlaySound2");
}
}

but it doesn´t work :/ is there another way to loop a sound on an entity? or do you know why this doesnt work?

thanks ^^

read my post before you complain. i want to loop a sound. PlaySoundAtEntity just plays it once. if there is a way to loop that, tell me.

Open the .snt file in notepad++ or w/e program you use. Then change loop from false, to true.

When you edit this file, it won't loop in other CSs unless you include it in the final release
