Signature
native precache_sound(const name[]);
Description
Precaches a sound file.
Notes
- Can only be used inside of the plugin_precache() forward.
-
The filepath is always relative to the "sound" folder, and the file has
to be a wav file. Precaching a file with this will add it to the engine
sound table, making it available for usage in emit_sound() for example.
-
Precaching other filetypes (such as mp3 music), optionally in different
locations, has to be done with precache_generic()
Parameters
- name — Path to the sound file
Returns
Unique cache id of the sound
Errors
-
If called outside of the plugin_precache() forward, an error is
thrown.
