precache_sound

Syntax

native precache_sound(const name[]);

Description

Precaches a sound file.

Parameters

Note

Can only be used inside of the plugin_precache() forward.

Note

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.

Note

Precaching other filetypes (such as mp3 music), optionally in different
locations, has to be done with precache_generic()

Return

Unique cache id of the sound

Error

If called outside of the plugin_precache() forward, an error is
thrown.
