Attaching sound to a player

How to attach a sound element to a player?

I found this: https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/AttachElements, but this doesn't work for a sound element (i'm thinking that works few times ago).

Example

function attachsoundtoplayer()    
sound = playSound3D("test.mp3",0,0,0)              
attachElements(sound,getLocalPlayer(),0,0,0)                  
end  
    
setTimer(attachsoundtoplayer,100,1)

But in my first post i write that function "attachElements" doesn't works for a sound element .

create the sound for the local player, then use the clientside event onClientRender

this event is triggered every single frame, so inside the handler function get the local player's position and setElementPosition(sound, x,y,z) afterwards

the beauty of this is that the sound follows you everytime you move (every frame)

BinSlayer1 - yes, I know this functions, but i was thinking that is any other way to do this.

Thanks.

Better use setTimer on 50 ms for update position.

I suppose you are right, assuming you run Pentium II.
