Probably the most vague thread I've ever read.

Are you asking how to MAKE sounds/music? Or how to implement it into the game?

The site has all the script commands for level scripts. I suggest you should just start trying them out and see what they do. If you don't know anything about how to make script to work just look for tutorials before posting thread.

Code: (Select All)

PlayGuiSound("sound.ogg", 1);
PlaySoundAtEntity("soundname", "sound.snt", "Player", 0, false);
PlayMusic("music.ogg", true, 1, 0, 1, false);

GuiSound - typically uses .ogg sound files and is not a 3D sound

SoundAtEntity - only uses a .snt sound file, meaning this is a 3D sound that can be played on any particular entity, fading at a certain distance. SoundName can be used later in the command StopSound("name", 0);

Music - uses .ogg sound files, the second parameter (true) allows it the loop, change to false if you do not want it to loop. The last "1" there determines priority; I would use 0 for background music. This is used in the actual game many times when you use music in an event and then it cuts into the background music again. The music in the event should be priority 1, allowing the music to play over the background, then cut back.
