Sound Flags


Sound Flags are used to control the different types of sounds that can be played in JK. They are: Thing, Class, Position, Local, and Global sounds. Here's a description of each: Not all Sound Flags apply to all types of sounds. If a Sound Flag only works with a few sound types, then it will list them in its description. But if the description does not list any sound types, then it is meant to work with all sounds.

There is no way with Cog to access a sound's flags ingame, but doubtless the engine can. So perhaps some of the unknown flags are used by the engine alone for the purpose of playing the sound. Also, some of the unknown Sound Flags (such as 0x2) may affect the CD music. But JK does have problems changing the music's volume on some systems, so it is possible that some of the unknown flags will work only on some systems.
