Play sound to radio frequency

[McVittees]

Probably should go in the wish list but just in case someone around here already knows how it can be done, is it possible to play a sound to a particular freqency rather than to a side/coalition/everyone?

 

I remember in Black Shark there was a radio Mayop (I don't remember the station's name exactly) where you could play music over a particular frequency. Did this feature come across to DCS A10C?

Well, there are several triggers relating to cockpit parameters, but no one that I know of really knows what they relate to. There is probably some way you could detect the cockpit parameter that is the radio frequency and only play a sound if it is on the correct "parameter" value. This would only work in single player.

 

Now there are ways to do it through lua... TARS is a mod that allows TS3 to detect what radio frequency you are on. I think it uses Export.lua.

 

So anyway, there are at least two ways to do it. One, I think only ED knows how to do (which cockpit parameter the radio is, no one in the community knows to my knowledge). The other way requires knowledge of lua programming, and knowledge of how to detect radio frequency. I have the first, lua knowledge, but I don't know how you detect radio frequency. Not that it couldn't be figured out, but it's somthing I've lost interest in because without a second, external app running that receives commands from DCS, and/or some kind of DCS mod installed on all clients, it wouldn't work in multiplayer. Most likely you would need both.

Try somewhere in the DCS A-10C\Scripts\Aircrafts\A-10C\Cockpit folder.

 

Maybe the Command_Defs.lua file?
