PlaySound Improved

Description
This is an unofficial improved version of Draco_2k's PlaySound addon.
Credits goes to the original creator.

PlaySound enables you to play any sound and music in the game. If an admin of the server plays a sound/music, it will be heard in the whole server. But as a regular player, doing so would only play the sound/music clientside instead.

The lists are accessible in the Options tab of the spawnmenu.

Soundtrack lists included:
  • Half-Life 1 & Opposing Force
  • Half-Life 2 (with the Episodes & Combine Overwatch sounds)
  • Portal 1
  • Team Fortress 2
  • Left 4 Dead 1 & 2

Check out the custom lists that are currently available here.

FAQ
  • "Please add a loop function!!"
    No. It is simply not possible due to engine limitations.

    The only other way to make sounds loop is by using Wavosaur[www.wavosaur.com] and add loop points in your audio file, make sure it is a WAV file. Only WAV files support sound looping, MP3 and OGG files do not.


  • "Why do some of the music tracks don't play?"
    Some tracks come from games that require you to own and mount them, for example like Left 4 Dead 2.

    Or in other cases like if you're making your own PlaySound list, make sure the sample rate of your audio is at least 44100 kHz. It will not work if the value is higher than that.

add an option to make your own collections with audios you already have in gmod (something similar to the wiremod audio picker thing, i think its from gmod tho)

Will you add all the Half Life "Overwatch" announcements? From Half-Life 2 to Half Life Alyx? If so will you consider adding the announcements from city 24?

The difference are the reorganized lists, with proper names for each soundtrack

Other than that they've also been expanded so you can play almost every track from the games.
