Sound clip when Picking up a gun

[rummy00]

I am trying to have a soundclip play when I pickup a certain gun. For this example, I want to say my soundclip is named PickupSuperShotty

and I want the super shotty (the double barrel) gun to have the sound clip.

How can I do that?

It is an actor property like health, mass, speed, etc..., so it goes in an actor's definition:

Code: Select all

ACTOR MyGun : Weapon
{
  // Properties and flags

  Inventory.PickupSound "coolsound"

  // Other properties and flags

  States
  {
    // States are here
  }
}

}

so would this be were i'd insert it?

Code: Select all

ACTOR NewMarine : Doomplayer
{
  Inventory.PickupSound "coolsound"
    Player.StartItem "clip", 13
    Player.StartItem "colt45"
    Player.StartItem "Fist"
}

Yes, in an actor's definition and outside of the States block. But since you want the sound to play when picking up the weapon, you should put it in the weapon's code, not the player's.

You can put it anywhere as long as it is outside the States block:

Code: Select all

actor Colt45 : Weapon 5757
{
  Weapon.SelectionOrder 1900
  Weapon.AmmoUse 1
  Weapon.AmmoGive 20
  Weapon.AmmoType "Clip"
  AttackSound "Weapon/COLTFIRE"
  Weapon.SlotNumber 2
  Obituary "%o was Killed by %k's Kimber."
  +WEAPON.WIMPY_WEAPON
+Weapon.Ammo_Optional
  Inventory.Pickupmessage "Picked up a Kimber Warrior."
  Inventory.PickupSound "coolsound" // <----
  States
  {
  Ready:
    COLT A 1 A_WeaponReady
    Loop
  Deselect:
    COLT A 1 A_Lower
    Loop
  Select:
    COLT A 1 A_Raise
    Loop
  Fire:
    COLT A 0 A_JumpIfNoAmmo("Click")
   COLF A 1 A_FireBullets(5.2,1,1,7.5)
   COLF A 1 A_Light2
   COLF A 1 A_Light1
   COLT B 3 A_Light0
    COLT CDE 3
    COLT B 3 A_ReFire
    Goto Ready
  Flash:
    COLF A 3 Bright A_Light1
    COLF A 3 Bright A_Light0
    Goto LightDone
  Spawn:
    COLP A -1
    Stop
   Click:
COLT A 0 A_PlayWeaponSound("ammo/out")
