Is there a way to have an audio file play at the briefing screen in multiplayer mission?

[Honez]

I create a lot of great missions and I'm looking for a way to have the briefing automatically play an audio file when the player enters it. I can do it once we are in the plane but wanted to know if there is a trick that I didn't know about that would play the briefing text when the user enters the briefing screen at the beginning of the mission?

No, but you could have a very minimal briefing text and replace it completely with a set of images to show the briefing on a presentation style, with audio sounding at the same time ... however you would be seated at your aircraft, it looks like this:

First off let me say how much I have enjoyed his ME series. They have been instrumental in me learning how to build missions that really impress my homies. This was very helpful and I will use this picture feature with an audio clip playing behind it. I think I will also trigger it from the (F10) menu with the use of "Add Radio Button" feature so the client can play it at will or bring it up at will. Once again thanks for this tip!

+1 @SUNTSAG YT channel is the best one there is on the ME subject and I’ve learned a lot from his videos, for me his most valuable lesson was learning to use Static Templates
