Play the same custom sound at multiple entities? - Rapsis - 08-10-2013

Hey people, I'm using:

Code:
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "raining.snt", "rainsound", 1, true);    

PlaySoundAtEntity("", "raining.snt", "rainsound_1", 1, true);    

PlaySoundAtEntity("", "raining.snt", "rainsound_2", 1, true);    

PlaySoundAtEntity("", "raining.snt", "rainsound_3", 1, true);    

PlaySoundAtEntity("", "raining.snt", "rainsound_4", 1, true);

But it only plays the sound at the first entity that way. I'm horrible at variables. How can I make them all play at the same time?

Then call them from different functions.

It must be a problem with the name of the entity that you are trying to play the sound at. Also, what entities are you trying to play the sounds at exactly?

I'm using scriptareas. Names are all correct.

Nevermind, I forgot to remove the .cache file.
