[JASS] Play sound for player (player group)

[onix_noob]

StartSoundForPlayerBJ

function StartSoundForPlayerBJ takes player whichPlayer, sound soundHandle returns nothing
    if (whichPlayer == GetLocalPlayer()) then
        call StartSound(soundHandle)
    endif
endfunction

i don't know nothing about this stupid program and the program itself don't help me alot, but to play sound for a only 1 player or player within a group i need jass. So i end um with this trigger/script line/command or whatever are those things in jass. So can some one tell me how to fill up the gaps here and to tell me everything about how i can manage this command. I hope atleast one of you get my point (my point is to play a sound .mp3 format for 1 player or for palyer in player group) so can some one tell me what to DO

btw i have to insert this thing with costum script or what? becouse looks weird when i insert it with costum script and i have the feeling that i screw up

For one player you'd be using

• call StartSoundForPlayerBJ(Player(0), gg_snd_Hint)

 

[Dynasti]

For one player you'd be using

call StartSoundForPlayerBJ(Player(0), gg_snd_Hint)

no, BJ's are stupid.

Just copy the content of that BJ function into you're code.

Edit:

I made this nifty function for you to use

function StartSoundForPlayer takes player wichPlayer, string soundName returns nothing
    local sound soundHandle = CreateSound(soundName, false, false, true, 12700, 12700, "")
    
    if GetLocalPlayer() == wichPlayer then
        call StartSound(soundHandle)
    endif
    
    call KillSoundWhenDone(soundHandle)
endfunction

i end up having this

function StartSoundForPlayerBJ takes player (0), sound MeltWithYou <gen> returns nothing

if (0 == GetLocalPlayer(0)) then

call StartSound(call StartSound(MeltWithYou <gen>))

those are 3 costum scripts (separete) and it gives me error. As you guys maybe already get i am uber noob in JASS and this is my first script that i am trying to get it work. So what to type at sound menu player 1 is 0 right?
and why when i click at syntax cheker it says "Statement outside of function"


Edit1: i end up with having this

function StartSoundForPlayerBJ takes Player(0), sound  gg_snd_Melt_With_You  returns nothing
    if (whichPlayer(0) == GetLocalPlayer(0)) then
        call StartSound( gg_snd_Melt_With_You )
    endif
endfunction

and i put it when i conver trigger to costum text but still give me a error

the original code is

function StartSoundForPlayerBJ takes player whichPlayer, sound soundHandle returns nothing
    if (whichPlayer == GetLocalPlayer()) then
        call StartSound(soundHandle)
    endif
endfunction

• Custom Script - if GetLocalPlayer() == udg_YourPlayer then
• Custom Script - call StartSound(gg_snd_Melt_With_You)
• Custom Script - endif

That should do the trick.

This trigger keep giving me error at first line

if GetLocalPlayer(0) == udg_Player(0) then

if some one wonna help me send me the trigger that is set for player 1. As i say i am not good at crosswords and jass is exactly that a crosswords and becouse of that most ppls say it's hard to learn. For the next who wonna help me fill the text in the script where is missing other wise don't post i can always ask for help in the other 3 sites (ppls in this site can do only spells and sliding triggers in JASS). Peoples give you the script and say there u go in matter of fact jass also give me this script the problem is i don't know how to fill the gaps becouse i don't know JASS

 

[Element of Water]

not if GetLocalPlayer(0) == udg_Player(0) then, just if GetLocalPlayer() == udg_Player then. Don't have the 0's. And udg_Player is not a function, it is a variable.

 

[onix_noob]

udg_Player is variable for only 1 player or for player group?

 

[Element of Water]

Only 1 player. If you want to do it for a player group you can do:

if IsPlayerInForce(GetLocalPlayer(), udg_YourPlayerGroup) then
    //...
endif

 

[onix_noob]

ok it's working and one more think before i give you rep

if IsPlayerInForce(GetLocalPlayer(), udg_YourPlayerGroup) then

call StartSound(gg_snd_Melt_With_You)

i wonna if player is not i player group to stop the sound is that posible?

Edit: i found the code

call StopSound(soundHandle, false, fadeOut)

how to fill it up (i use the first line from the first script but players are in diferent group

 

[Element of Water]

if IsPlayerInForce(GetLocalPlayer(), udg_YourPlayerGroup) then
    //play sound
else
    //stop sound
endif

 

[onix_noob]

my question was how to fill the script for stop sound becouse when i place my sound still give me error. And this "else" will be the only 1 word in the costum script?

 

[Element of Water]

soundHandle is your sound, then just put false, then fadeOut is "true" if you want the sound to fade out, and "false" if you just want it to stop instantly.

 

[onix_noob]

JassCraft say

Undeclared variable: fadeOut

For this line

call StopSound(gg_snd_Melt_With_You, false, fadeOut)

World editor also give me error : Expected a name

Edit1: i make it like this

call StopSoundBJ( gg_snd_Melt_With_You, true )

(by converting to soctum text and copy the text)
i will test the map now and will tell if all is ok

Edit2: all is working trigger is MPI i like that. Tnx to you Element of Water i will begin learning now JASS it's not that hard but i will learn how to fill those crosswords +rep

 

[Element of Water]

It would be better if you didn't use the BJ and replaced where it says "fadeOut" with true if you want the sound to fade out, or replace it with "false" if you want the sound to just stop immediately.

 

[onix_noob]

If i use this

call StopSound(gg_snd_Melt_With_You, false)

world editor simply crash, and why to not use BJ (i am currenctly reading tutorial)

 

[Element of Water]

You don't get it do you? You need to put false (or true if you want it to fade out) again after another comma. The function takes a sound, and two booleans. You are only passing it one boolean.
And why not use BJs? Each time you make a function call, it takes time. When you use a BJ, it does 2 or more function calls (you call the BJ, the BJ calls the native - two calls) when you can do the same thing using just one native. This means your code takes longer than it could to execute, causing lag if you use too many of them within a small amount of time.

 

[onix_noob]

I was having problem with this

 boolean fadeOut

but now i get it bolleans are real or true and 10x again for this help now the line looks like that

call StopSound(gg_snd_Melt_With_You, false, true)

btw this is MPI as far as i can see it

yupiiiiiiii my very first JASS script
i will learn jass some day i can do it

 

[Element of Water]

I think it took me less than a week to get the hang of jass and vjass. But then I already knew C++ and Python, which basically follow the same principles.

 

[onix_noob]

next week i will try to make most of the triggers in one map in jass i will see what will happen so beware , and till then i will read some more tutorials
