Audio3DScripts

From Civilization Modding Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search

The Audio3DScripts file defines attributes for sounds used by 3D sound script operations. These attributes define how and if sound is played at a distance from a source. Most notably, when you are zoomed into a resource (e.g. cows) on the map screen, they are louder the closer you are zoomed in and if they are centered on the screen.

All tags must be opened and closed; the first is the "open", the second the "close" tag. If nothing goes inside a "list tag", then it should just be the opening tag with a "/" before the closing bracket. The following tables contain all available tags, as well as their purpose and accepted values.

Integer

All of these tags have a numerical value. Though it sometimes can be negative, it usually is not.
