[Question] How do you get PlaySound3D to follow

[Crook4Money]

I made a script that I had to restart from scratch due to not backing it up and completely breaking it. When the script was in a better state I could get the sound to follow the vehicle I was driving, but I can't seem to get that to happen again. 

function startMySound(thePlayer)
		if ( isPedInVehicle ( thePlayer ) ) then 
		local vehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle(thePlayer)
		local x,y,z = getElementPosition( vehicle )
		playSound3D( "sound1.mp3", x, y, z, true )
		end
		end
addEventHandler( "onClientVehicleEnter", root, startMySound )

From what I tried to remember from the last script setting the x,y,z to the vehicle was allowing the sound to follow the vehicle using the local coordinates, but the sound now just starts at the car and stays where the sound started playing. How do I get it to track your position? 

Edit: Come to think of it I couldn't get PlaySound3D to work at all with the original script for whatever reason and instead used PlaySound which would follow the player by default. So I guess I never had this working to begin with.

Try use attachElements

function startMySound(player)
	if isPedInVehicle(player) then
		local vehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle(player)
		local x,y,z = getElementPosition(player)
		local sound = playSound3D("sound1.mp3",x,y,z,true)
		attachElements(sound,vehicle) -- It attach the sound to the vehicle
	end
end
addEventHandler("onClientVehicleEnter",getRootElement(),startMySound)

addEventHandler("onClientPlayerVehicleEnter",root,
function()
  local vehicle = getPedOccupiedVehicle(source)
  local x,y,z = getElementPosition(vehicle)
  sound = playSound3D("sound1.mp3",x,y,z,true)
  attachElements(sound,vehicle)
end
)

try this
