[Help] Play Music Serverside

Hello,

how the subject already tell, i want to play the music serverside.

Why?

I wanna make a Harlem Shake Map and the Music should be 100% sincron with the moving objects, which are also serverside.

The sound should start whan map start, like moving objects.

I already scriped something, but i want to now if it could work:

  
-- define the onGamemodeMapStart handler function 
function onGamemodeMapStart() 
    -- play sound 
    callClientFunction(source, "sound = playSound", "harlem.mp3) 
end 
-- add the event handler 
addEventHandler("onGamemodeMapStart", root, onGamemodeMapStart) 
  
  
 

you can't play the sound server side you can only trigger a client event to play the sound client side

you didn't make a client side , did you? that's why its not working , you gotta create a client side file then put this function in

function callClientFunction(funcname, ...) 
    local arg = { ... } 
    if (arg[1]) then 
        for key, value in next, arg do arg[key] = tonumber(value) or value end 
    end 
    loadstring("return "..funcname)()(unpack(arg)) 
end 
addEvent("onServerCallsClientFunction", true) 
addEventHandler("onServerCallsClientFunction", resourceRoot, callClientFunction) 

also in your serverside you gotta put this function

function callClientFunction(client, funcname, ...) 
    local arg = { ... } 
    if (arg[1]) then 
        for key, value in next, arg do 
            if (type(value) == "number") then arg[key] = tostring(value) end 
        end 
    end 
    -- If the clientside event handler is not in the same resource, replace 'resourceRoot' with the appropriate element 
    triggerClientEvent(client, "onServerCallsClientFunction", resourceRoot, funcname, unpack(arg or {})) 
end 

also you've forgot to close the string

-- define the onGamemodeMapStart handler function 
function onGamemodeMapStart() 
    -- play sound 
    callClientFunction(source, "sound = playSound", "harlem.mp3") 
end 
-- add the event handler 
addEventHandler("onGamemodeMapStart", root, onGamemodeMapStart) 
  
  

That sounds very complicated

It not simple for to ask you, but can you please make me the script?

you wasn't really have to use call client function because you can do it with trigger event i just post it cause you said yours not working , anyways you can make it simply like this :

-- server side ( server.lua ) 
addEventHandler("onPlayerSpawn",root,function () -- links the event onPlayerSpawn with a function 
triggerClientEvent(source,"PlaySound",source) -- triggers the client side event "PlaySound" which plays the sound just for the source player 
end) 
  
-- client side (client.lua)  
addEvent("PlaySound",true) -- creates a custom event 
addEventHandler("PlaySound",root,function () -- links the custom event with a function 
sound = playSound("harlem.mp3") -- defines and plays the sound file harlem.mp3 
end) 
  

Thank you very much

and if i use onGamemodeMapStart instead of onPlayerSpawn?
