[System] SoundTools

[Cokemonkey11]

Yes, suggestion: Use T&S Section

 

[pred1980]

but the "SoundTools Snippet Thread" is here and i think that's the best place because here's the creater of the code. Or not?

 

[Magtheridon96]

The creator of the code is no longer capable of maintaining the resource.

He moved on.

 

[pred1980]

Why not? You created the code... why can't you try to fix it? I uploaded a simple testversion where you can try to test and fix it? No time to do it?

 

[Magtheridon96]

I think the entire API is flawed.

You can't run a sound on a unit for a player for example.

SoundTools 4.0.0.0 would need to be written with a new API.

 

[pred1980]

I think the entire API is flawed.

LOL?

ok. i'll change to cokemonkey's script.

Reg.

If you run a sound file for only one or a group of players, the sound volume will be set to 0
and never reset for this sound handle.
Either when getting or pushing the handle from/into the stack you have to set the volume
back to default.

 

[BPower]

Reset the volume to the default volume, when popping a sound file from the stack.
Otherwise the handle may be muted for x players.

method release could required extra safety, so you don't push a sound handle to the stack,
which is already part of the stack.

I really like SoundTools, we should brainstorm a bit to improve it.

bae don't lie you can't leave. we always come back eventually

 

[Ruke]

bae don't lie you can't leave. we always come back eventually

so true that hurts

 

[Magtheridon96]

I'm not lying, look at how I responded to your post approximately a month later.
I only come here to reply to private messages asking me about resources.
I tell people to message someone else.

 

[Bribe]

You burned yourself out and are sick of it, huh? Too much efficiency and optimizations

 

[BPower]

I had the idea to use the force native in the entire API.
Everything we need is already available in the blizzad.j

    force              bj_FORCE_ALL_PLAYERS        = null
    force array        bj_FORCE_PLAYER

by default a sound volume within the stack is 0.
If a player is in passed in force "audience", the volume gets adjusted.
This adds a small overhead in contrast to SoundTools 3.x, but solves all API problems
i.e. playing a sound on a unit for a player, etc...
in method this.run(audience)

            if IsPlayerInForce(GetLocalPlayer(), audience) then
                call SetSoundVolume(media[this], DEFAULT_SOUND_VOLUME)
            endif

Something like this:
