Comrades in Arms Discussion Board

i was thinking about something like:

i put [for example] 2 songs into a mission and i want one of them to start at the beginning of each gameplay like a kind of intro song. the main point is that i want the mission to randomly select which one to play, so maybe at the briefing screen players can have bettings whether we'll hear some DUMDUMDUMDUM or something by pavarotti ;D [that's not my goal to make gambling out of ofp of course], so random music.

any idea?

Check out the RandomSelect function at Daddl's site, demo mission included:

i had an idea this morning



i use the dummy's placement radius to either place him in the left or the right trigger, that starts different music. cheap idea but working  ;D

thanks anyway Lenin

Excellent. I see you unleashed your creativity there. I like it  ;D

The "official method" to select random from an array is like this:
_myArr select ((random count _myArr)-0.5)


So for example to play music:
playMusic (["Track1", "Track2", "Track3"] select ((random 3)-0.5))


Using a randomly placed unit is okay for MP though, because it will be synced automatically. No need to publicVariable it to have same song on each client.

Let me guess - You are going to put HEADUNTERZ there?  ;D

exactly

I read you like a book  - well actually it's not that hard to guess, the only thing you say when I ask you about music is: "HEADHUNTERZZZZZZ" 

that some new units in OFP?

I hope you dont really stole L4D's hunter in OFP, it would be painfully  ;D

Actually Overlod that is Ferenczi's favorite muisic group - Headhunterz - - here you go, "enjoy"

it's not a music group it's just one guy
