Load3DSound:Int32 filename:String

Parameter	Mode	Type	Default	Description
filename	In	String	required

Returns: A sound handle, or 0 if the file could not be loaded.

Description

Loads a sound file for use with EmitSound, which plays it from an entity so that it gets quieter with distance and moves between the speakers. The file formats are the same as for LoadSound.

Differences

• See 3D Sound for what is simulated: volume falls off with the distance and the stereo position follows the angle to the listener, and the pitch is shifted when the sound or the listener moves (see CreateListener).

Examples

; MakeBeep writes beep.wav, see the LoadSound example for the code.
