uhhh can anyone help me with this its getting verry frustrating.

[editline]21st May 2011[/editline]

help???

[s0beit]

Sure this shouldn't be
[lua]
SWEP.Primary.Sound = Sound( "weapons/DC-15A/fire_DC_15.wav" );
-- play
self.Weapon:EmitSound(self.Primary.Sound);
[/lua]

[Feihc]

EmitSound takes a string path as an argument, not a Sound object.

[lua]
SWEP.Primary.Sound = "your/path/here.wav"
self.Weapon:EmitSound(self.Primary.Sound)[/lua]

[jangofett890]

i got it to work thanks alot i had to add resource.AddFile( "sound/weapons/fire_DC_15.wav" )
admin please lock this thred :)

[QUOTE=Feihc;29981599]EmitSound takes a string path as an argument, not a Sound object.

[lua]
SWEP.Primary.Sound = "your/path/here.wav"
self.Weapon:EmitSound(self.Primary.Sound)[/lua][/QUOTE]

Sound returns the path to the file (Sound also caches it, as mentioned below)

[lua]
SWEP.Primary.Sound =
{
Sound( "weapons/pistol_beretta92fs/m9_fire1.wav" ),
Sound( "weapons/pistol_beretta92fs/m9_fire2.wav" ),
Sound( "weapons/pistol_beretta92fs/m9_fire3.wav" ),
Sound( "weapons/pistol_beretta92fs/m9_fire4.wav" ),
Sound( "weapons/pistol_beretta92fs/m9_fire5.wav" )
};

-- MEANWHILE

function SWEP:EmitRandomFireSound()
if( type( self.Primary.Sound ) == "table" ) then
self.Weapon:EmitSound( table.Random( self.Primary.Sound ) )
else
self.Weapon:EmitSound( self.Primary.Sound );
end
end
[/lua]

Sound object?
Wrong.
You are not toying with Sound objects,you are just using sound strings.
Sound(String sound) just precaches the sound and returns the input string.
Calling Sound(String sound) in there is correct,as it precaches the sound when the swep is getting registered in Lua.
