ADD_CONTINUOUS_SOUND

---

Description

Adds a continuous looping sound effect at the location

Syntax

018D: [var] = create_sound [int] at [flt1] [flt2] [flt3]

Parameter

[flt1]

X-coordinate

[flt2]

Y-coordinate

[flt3]

Z-coordinate

[int]

Sound index (see below)

[var]

Variable to store the handle of the sound

This opcode adds a continuous looping sound effect at the coordinates point. The sound index does not match the SFX table; it is based on a list hardcoded within the game. GTA III has a wide variety of different behaviors depending on the sound index, including but not limited to playing more than one sounds separately and intermittently. Vice City, however, is limited to only playing sounds continuously. Sounds can be stopped by calling opcode 018E.

Sounds

The following tables list all continuous sounds available in both games, including silent and unused ones. The value in the "SFX" column corresponds to an SFX entry. The value in the "Range" column is how far the player can be in units before the sound diminishes. The association between the sound index and its behavior is hardcoded. For III v1.0 the array containing this data starts at 0x60938C, and for VC v1.0 at 0x6B2AEC.

GTA III

Many of GTA III's continuous sounds have soft and loud versions, and a lot of sounds were never used by the game. Any enumerator names not from the source code script (viewable at GTAModding.ru) are based on a pattern or from the source code classes.
