Play sound for player

[Gutrot The Legend]

Is it possible to play a sound for 1 individual player because I have a sound which I use to tell someone they are dead, but I only want the dead player to hear it.

• Tr
• Events
  • Unit - A unit dies
• Conditions
• Actions
  • Set Sound1 = No sound
  • Custom script: if GetLocalPlayer() == GetOwningPlayer(GetTriggerUnit()) then
  • Set Sound1 = Death Sound <gen>
  • Custom script: endif
  • Sound - Play Sound1

I can also give you a Jass alternative, if you want, which is using a bit of a different method.

Thanks, But I'm no good with variables, can you:
1. I'll upload the map with this post and you can do it.
OR
2. Explain how to use it.

Note: I cannot make any progress on the map until something is done.
I need to make any hero unit killed by 'Eveneroc' that does not belong to red or blue's players hear the variable 'andthatconcludesourdemo'.

Thanks in advance.

Pharaoh, why do you set Sound to No Sound before the trigger has played the sound?

Edit: The trigger you posted in this thread is slightly different. I think you made a mistake in his map, but I'm not sure.

Yeah, it's not wrong, it's just that when the sound is played for the first time, it should go from null to a specific value, not the other way around (cause it will simply not play). The map works fine, so :]

Quote from PurgeandFire111's tutorial:

Congratulations, you made it correctly! HOWEVER, if this string is used for the first time (as in, have you never used that string before [which means it isn't in the string table]) can cause the string table to become unsynchronized (it enters the string table for only one person), which can also lead to some desyncs:

function Test takes nothing returns nothing
    //this is the proper method
    local string s = "war3mapImported\\FX.mdl"

    if GetLocalPlayer() != Player(0) then
        set s = ""
    endif
    call DestroyEffect(AddSpecialEffect(s,0.,0.))
endfunction

That is the proper method for creating effects locally.
