Script

[AlphaMark]

Hello guys. For some reason my script wont work.

10: Bad argument @ 'createExplosion'

11: Bad argument @ 'createExplosion'

12: Bad argument @ 'createExplosion'

function createExplosionForPlayer(thePlayer,command) 
    local x,y,z = getElementPosition(thePlayer) 
    timer = setTimer (createJihadForPlayer, 2500, 1) 
    triggerClientEvent("playTheSound", getRootElement()) 
end 
addCommandHandler("Jihad", createExplosionForPlayer) 
addCommandHandler("jihad", createExplosionForPlayer) 
  
function createJihadForPlayer(thePlayer,command) 
    local createdExplosion = createExplosion(x,y,z,2) 
    local createdExplosion = createExplosion(x,y,z,9) 
    local createdExplosion = createExplosion(x,y,z,10) 
        if (createdExplosion == true) then 
            outputChatBox(getPlayerName(thePlayer).." comitted a Jihad!") 
   end 
end

Try this:

function createExplosionForPlayer(thePlayer,command) 
    local x,y,z = getElementPosition(thePlayer) 
    timer = setTimer (createJihadForPlayer, 2500, 1, thePlayer, x, y, z) 
    triggerClientEvent("playTheSound", getRootElement()) 
end 
addCommandHandler("Jihad", createExplosionForPlayer) 
addCommandHandler("jihad", createExplosionForPlayer) 
  
function createJihadForPlayer(thePlayer, x, y, z) 
    local createdExplosion = createExplosion(x,y,z,2) 
    local createdExplosion = createExplosion(x,y,z,9) 
    local createdExplosion = createExplosion(x,y,z,10) 
    if (createdExplosion == true) then 
        outputChatBox(getPlayerName(thePlayer).." comitted a Jihad!") 
    end 
end

I found an other problem. It wont start the Client script.

function playTheSound() 
    sound = playSound("Jihad.mp3", false) 
    setSoundVolume(sound, 2) 
end 
addEvent("playTheSound", true) 
addEventHandler("playTheSound", getRootElement(), playTheSound)

The sound volume must be between 0 and 1. Mabye this is causing your problem.

[AlphaMark]

No, I still cant hear the sound

[csiguusz]

What is the new value? Any error messages in debugscript?

[AlphaMark]

Im getting no errors.

function playTheSound() 
    sound = playSound("Jihad.mp3", false) 
    setSoundVolume(sound, 1) 
    outputChatBox("Jihad start") 
end 
addEvent("playTheSound", true) 
addEventHandler("playTheSound", getRootElement(), playTheSound) 

Also i added outputChatBox("Jihad start") to check. It says: Jihad start. But i recieve no sounds

[csiguusz]

Weird. It seems to be fine. Aren't your sounds disabled/set to low in the settings? Is it a correct sound file? ( I mean if you play it outside of mta, you can hear it. )

You can check if the sound element was succesfully created by adding

outputChatBox ( tostring ( sound ) )  
-- this shouldn't say false 

[AlphaMark]

If i add ( tostring ( sound ) ) it just says False

And i hear it outside MTA

Then it couldn't find or play the sound. Is the path to the sound file correct? Is it added to the meta.xml?

[AlphaMark]

Yes i forgot to add it in the meta XML

Thanks

Ah... Okay, then it' solved.

You are welcome.
