Unsolved [CREATIVE] New sirens (audio)

[Daniėl]

The siren sound is so annoying, in my view, it is a useless addition & mostly, it will be used incorrectly by trainees.

[bas260]

@Daniėl My original suggestion was only giving it to PC and SAI.

[Daniėl]

@bas260 You reassured me, but it is still an annoying addition.

[Darude]

Bullhorn for SAFD would be cool

I totally agree, but don't give it away to everyone, it should be locked to PC, official policing groups and official squads (all of the squads or some certain squads for example those that have a level higher than 4). That way it wouldn't be spammed/abused by random players and it gives players an impression to join squads or groups.

It wasn't my idea to restrict it to certain groups, but it's not that i don't mind it. let's see what others have to say.

It's a small feature, but small features are probably the only things keeping certain groups alive, so in my opinion it's a definite yes that this should be restricted, -at the very least- from police trainees.

I'm on the edge on if this restriction should involve squads or not, so it might need more future discussions.

It's not up to me who's able to use the sounds, but I agree they can get annoying over time especially with audio range increased. I'm not aware of the difficulties involved, but adding an option to play default siren sound instead might be ideal. Devs should be able to add them with ease so players can opt out to default sounds if they so prefer.

If the suggestion passes I'll see with devs if we can add sounds for fire services. A Q2B siren would be quite nice as well, provided someone knows how to program audio

@Tut-Greco late to the party but, I like the sound and the horn, but would it be possible to have the 'sped up siren' on horn when the siren is enabled and use the horn-sound when it's not?

[Latinoo]

And what happened with this? will be this added?

There are many changes that are of higher priority than cosmetic/audio related changes like these.

[Ronseal]

Make it happen.

[bas260]

You heard Ronseal who's making it happen?

[Khal1kulov]

@Tut-Greco Yesss do it ++++++++++++++

[Filex]

this is a lovely bump from the best tunisian in the server enjoy guys. (recorded by @Tut-Greco )

[General]

Add them! They are not annoying lmao

[Shadro]

YES, PLEASE

[Tut]

I'm looking for better sirens, preferably studio recordings, so if you know any source please let me know

[Matheus]

@Tut-Greco , there's a few siren packs over at LSPDFR's forums. Personally, the one I used when I played was Code 3 Mastercom B from this pack. There are plenty others that sound good as well, like Federal Signal Unitrol Touchmaster Delta.

Would also be cool if you added more than one siren audio into the script and let the player choose between which one he or she would like to use.

[Tut]

Thanks. The current ideas for siren variation is squads, PD's, cars/trucks, SAFD and whether the vehicle is deployed from county/urban area etc., but we haven't thought of letting players choose their own siren type.

[Matheus]

Sounds good, too. Even better, actually. Just thought that it would be a single tone for the whole server, and it would probably get old really fast...

[Tut]

Yep that'd be its fate. Filex is creating a custom audio system anyway, so why not customize it further than just one tone
