1. Check your debug window for any warnings/errors. The command is:

/debugscript 3

2. Use outputChatBox or outputDebugString functions to display what playSound3D returned.

Completely crazy idea, I'm probably WAYYY off here, but maybe it's because you defined this resource as type="map" but it doesn't have a map or race file defined.

Try type="script".

Did you try my other point (no.2)?

[=RM=Mario]

no idea how to do that

Basically, you just debug your code. After you call playSound3D your local sound variable will hold a value/data of what playSound3D returned. If playSound3D failed the sound variable will hold false. So, to find out what that sound variable is you need to show that to yourself with outputDebugString or outputChatBox functions.

outputChatBox( tostring( sound ) ); -- you need to use tostring because playSound3D doesn't return string

sorry for the noob Question....but where do i type this?

outputChatBox( tostring( sound ) ); -- you need to use tostring because playSound3D doesn't return string

function onResourceStart()
local sound = playSound3D("xenon.mp3", 2484.0263671875, -1668.2800292969, 13.34375, true)
outputChatBox( tostring( sound ) )
end
addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()), onResourceStart)

local sound = playSound3D("xenon.mp3", 2484.0263671875, -1668.2800292969, 13.34375, true)
outputChatBox( tostring( sound ) )
end
addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", getResourceRootElement(getThisResource()), onResourceStart)

did this,nothing..

What do you mean nothing? Didn't you see anything in your chat box or sound did play? Besides, you don't have to use getThisResource in getResourceRootElement since getThisResource is default argument.

i dont see anything in chatbox,and music isnt playing

- Are you sure you started the script?

- Are you sure your script is updated?

- Make sure you don't edit the resource in "resourcecache" folder.

- Is this folder or zip resource? If it's zip resource, make sure you don't have a folder with the same name.

Your meta.xml:

<[color=#FF0000]/[/color]meta>
<info author="Mario" description="Music at Grove" version="1.0" type="map" />
   <script src="musicxeno.lua" type="client" />
   <file src="xenon.mp3" />
</meta>

I think this is right:

<meta>
<info author="Mario" description="Music at Grove" version="1.0" type="map" />
   <script src="musicxeno.lua" type="client" />
   <file src="xenon.mp3" />
