We used FMOD but we changed it to Audiere because FMOD was not thread safe,
we found some crashes related to it. Oh and we used CAutoGameSystem /
IGameListener2 to fetch events.

FMOD you too.  I am lost as to what exactly you are saying. How do I
start music playing when the map change occurs and a new map begins
loading?

Re: [hlcoders] Music during map loading

2007-08-12 Thread Ondřej Hošek

Threads.

Unless the Source engine has some system-agnostic thread interface (the
developers' wiki returns zero results... must suck doing server
threading for both POSIX (Unix) and Windows separately), just read this:

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms682516.aspx

The thread function should, while making sure the music is playing,
periodically check some sort of global variable and return when it
becomes non-zero. CreateThread right before you load; when loading is
done, set the global variable to 1 and do a WaitForSingleObject followed
by a CloseHandle. I don't think you need to CriticalSection the global
variable setting since only one thread will ever modify it (the one
responsible for the loading).

Oh, and should you ever wonder: what POSIX threads call mutex is a
critical section on Windows. A mutex is used for interprocess (and
not interthread like on POSIX) communications on Windows.

Dito. Didn't Insurgency do something like that? Hence, it's possible for
mods.

Yeah Insurgency plays music while loading maps.
Since I don't have Insurgency installed anymore,
I can't look into it (probably coded anyway).
