Making a sound in a model play locally?

Asked 247 views2 answers

I would like OpenSound1 to play locally (currently it is playing globally all over the map). I have been trying to figure this out myself but I just keep breaking it :( Line 37 is when the sound plays. I appreciate the help so much! Thank you in advance! 

print("Advanced SpecialDoor Script loaded")



permission = { "Fire Dorm" }
Door = script.Parent.Parent.PersonDoor
DoorMesh = script.Parent.Parent.PersonDoor.Mesh
Sensor = script.Parent

function checkOkToLetIn(name)
	for i = 1,#permission do
		
		if (string.upper(name) == string.upper(permission[i])) then return true end
	end
	return false
end

function onTouched(hit)
		print("Sensor Hit")
		local human = hit.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
		if (human ~= nil ) then
			-- 
			print("Human touched door")
			
			if (checkOkToLetIn(human.Parent.Name)) then
				print("Human passed test")
				Wait(0.001)
                                script.Parent.Parent.Dot1.Transparency = 0

Place the sound inside the player. For instance the PlayerGui. Everything inside the player is local.

I think he meant, for example, you here the sound if you are this close. As you get farther away, it grows quieter. You know, like real life

There is actually a really simple fix to your problem.

To play a sound locally, you need to have the sound somewhere in the Player (I will be using your script a bit in this.)




print("Advanced SpecialDoor Script loaded")



permission = { "Fire Dorm" }
Door = script.Parent.Parent.PersonDoor
DoorMesh = script.Parent.Parent.PersonDoor.Mesh
Sensor = script.Parent

function checkOkToLetIn(name)
    for i = 1,#permission do

        if (string.upper(name) == string.upper(permission[i])) then return true end
    end
    return false
end

function onTouched(hit)
        print("Sensor Hit")
        local human = hit.Parent:findFirstChild("Humanoid")
        if (human ~= nil ) then
            -- 
            print("Human touched door")
plr=game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)

            if (checkOkToLetIn(human.Parent.Name)) then
                print("Human passed test")
                Wait(0.001)
                                script.Parent.Parent.Dot1.Transparency = 0

Thank you for your response! I believe I am missing something very crucial here that may just change my life.. I am only able to access PlayerGui when I am in test mode (and it does not save changes when I perform actions in this mode). What is the actual way to access this? Thank you so much for your help!

What do you mean you cannot access it? Have you tried cloning the sound and placing it directly into the player's playergui?

Well, I am trying to access it by going through Players > Player1 > PlayerGui is this the right path? This only shows up when I am in "test" mode of studio. When I am in edit mode, I can see the "Players" folder, but does not have a drop down list for players because there are not players in editing mode.. I have tried going into "test" mode pasting it into the PlayerGui, but things you do in edit

but things you do in edit mode do not save. I am guessing there may be a 3rd way of editing it, with your player in the game and it actually save changes? Because that is the only way I can access this folder, but it does not save in test mode...

I think I may have managed to make it stick, no idea how, but what would I change Player1 to to make it play for everyone (not just Player1)? Example: I have game.Players.Player1.PlayerGui.OpenSound1:Play() , thanks again for your help!

I really appreciate you trying to help, I had tried the script and messed with it a bit but unfortunately no luck. Thank you so much again for trying to help me. I will give you the accepted answer.

Hey i'm glad to help. Once you learn how to do the small stuff, you can start learning the bigger stuff, which is where i'm at.

To make a sound play locally, you put the sound inside a player. For this, we can use PlayerGui. To access PlayerGui, we do this: 

game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(p)
	local sound = game.Soundscape.Sound
	local clone = sound:Clone()
	clone.Parent = p.PlayerGui
	clone.Playing = true
end)
