How to add looping music with mapadd?

[SgtPotato]

Hello, i would like to know how to add looping music with mapadd.
I thought yesterday that music would add some good ambience into my map.

Thanks in advance.

(Pardon me for my not-so-good thread making )

Code: Select all

	Add
	{
		// This plays the sound. DO NOT TRIGGER THIS ENTITY.
		"ambient_generic"
		{
			"health" "10"
			"message" "path/to/sound.file"
			"pitch" "100"
			"pitchstart" "100"
			"radius" "1250"
			"spawnflags" "49"
			"targetname" "snd_1"
			"origin" "-872 -1376 530"
		}
		// This is the trigger for the sequence. ONLY TRIGGER THIS ENTITY TO START, DO NOT TRIGGER THE OTHERS INDIVIDUALLY!
		"logic_relay"
		{
			"spawnflags" "0"
			"targetname" "rly_snd1"
			"origin" "-848 -1376 530"
			"OnTrigger" "snd_1,PlaySound,,0,-1"
			"OnTrigger" "tim_snd1_looper,Enable,,0,-1"
			"OnTrigger" "rly_snd1_fadetrigger,Enable,,0,-1"
		}
		// This is the timer to loop the sound. DO NOT TRIGGER THIS ENTITY.
		"logic_timer"
		{
			// Change this vvv to match the time the sound ends (time is in seconds)
			"RefireTime" "240"
			"spawnflags" "0"
			"StartDisabled" "1"
			"targetname" "tim_snd1_looper"
			"origin" "-824 -1376 530"
			"OnTimer" "snd_1,PlaySound,,0,-1"
		}
		// This is the trigger to stop the sound (with a 1.5 second fade). ONLY TRIGGER THIS ENTITY TO STOP, DO NOT TRIGGER THE OTHERS INDIVIDUALLY!
		"logic_relay"
		{
			"spawnflags" "0"
			"StartDisabled" "1"
			"targetname" "rly_snd1_fadetrigger"
			"origin" "-800 -1376 530"
			"OnTrigger" "snd_1,FadeOut,1.5,0,-1"
			"OnTrigger" "tim_snd1_looper,Disable,,0,-1"
			"OnTrigger" "!self,Disable,,0,-1"
		}
	}

Alright, thanks for help

You'll have to change the origin's to a location in the map you're mapadding for otherwise you could throw ents out of the map.

Well, afaik placing logical entities outside the map after the map (e.g. with a MapAdd) is compiled is perfectly fine, because it's impossible for a map to leak post-compile. Just don't place props or other visible entities outside the map.

Sorry didn't get back here, you could be right. I'm not sure.
