GetVehicleModelAudioSettings

ADDED/UPDATED IN VERSION 1.6.0 r23140:

This function retrieves audio properties for a specific vehicle model. It allows inspection of various vehicle sound settings such as engine sounds, horn characteristics, door sounds, and radio settings.

Syntax

table getVehicleModelAudioSettings ( int modelID )

Required Arguments

• modelID: The vehicle model ID to retrieve audio settings for

Returns

Returns a table containing audio settings if successful, false otherwise. The returned table contains the following properties:

• sound-type - Sound effect type
• engine-on-soundbank-id - Engine startup sound bank ID (0-410)
• engine-off-soundbank-id - Engine shutdown sound bank ID (0-410)
• bass-setting - Bass settings
• bass-eq - Bass equalizer
• field-c - Field C parameter
• horn-ton - Horn tone
• horn-high - Horn high frequency
• engine-upgrade - Engine upgrade sound effect
• door-sound - Door sound effects
• radio-num - Radio number
• radio-type - Radio type
• vehicle-type-for-audio - Audio vehicle type
• horn-volume-delta - Horn volume delta

[[{{{image}}}|link=|]]	Note: This function only works with standard vehicle models. For custom models, it will return the audio settings of the parent model.

Examples

Example 1: Basic Audio Settings Retrieval

-- Get audio settings for Infernus (model 411)
local audioSettings = getVehicleModelAudioSettings(411)
if audioSettings then
    outputChatBox("Infernus engine on sound bank: " .. audioSettings["engine-on-soundbank-id"])
    outputChatBox("Infernus engine off sound bank: " .. audioSettings["engine-off-soundbank-id"])
    outputChatBox("Infernus horn tone: " .. audioSettings["horn-ton"])
else
    outputChatBox("Failed to retrieve audio settings for Infernus")
end

Example 2: Compare Audio Settings Between Models

-- Compare audio settings between different vehicle models
local models = {411, 506, 451, 602} -- Infernus, Super GT, Turismo, Alpha
local modelNames = {"Infernus", "Super GT", "Turismo", "Alpha"}

outputChatBox("=== Vehicle Audio Comparison ===")
for i, modelID in ipairs(models) do
    local audioSettings = getVehicleModelAudioSettings(modelID)
    if audioSettings then
        outputChatBox(modelNames[i] .. ":")
        outputChatBox("  Engine On Bank: " .. audioSettings["engine-on-soundbank-id"])
        outputChatBox("  Engine Off Bank: " .. audioSettings["engine-off-soundbank-id"])
        outputChatBox("  Horn Volume Delta: " .. audioSettings["horn-volume-delta"])
        outputChatBox("  Radio Type: " .. audioSettings["radio-type"])
        outputChatBox("---")
    end
end

Example 3: Audio Settings Inspector

-- Function to display all audio properties of a vehicle model
function inspectVehicleAudio(modelID)
    local audioSettings = getVehicleModelAudioSettings(modelID)
    if not audioSettings then
        outputChatBox("Invalid model ID or failed to retrieve audio settings")
        return false
    end
    
    outputChatBox("=== Audio Settings for Model " .. modelID .. " ===")
    for property, value in pairs(audioSettings) do
        outputChatBox(property .. ": " .. tostring(value))
    end
    
    return true
end

-- Example usage
inspectVehicleAudio(411) -- Inspect Infernus audio settings

Example 4: Audio Profile Backup System

-- Function to backup audio settings for multiple models
function backupAudioSettings(models)
    local backup = {}
    
    for _, modelID in ipairs(models) do
        local audioSettings = getVehicleModelAudioSettings(modelID)
        if audioSettings then
            backup[modelID] = audioSettings
            outputChatBox("Backed up audio settings for model " .. modelID)
        else
            outputChatBox("Failed to backup audio settings for model " .. modelID)
        end
    end
    
    return backup
end

-- Function to display backup information
function displayBackupInfo(backup)
    outputChatBox("=== Audio Settings Backup ===")
    for modelID, settings in pairs(backup) do
        outputChatBox("Model " .. modelID .. " has " .. table.size(settings) .. " audio properties")
    end
end

-- Example usage
local sportsCars = {411, 506, 451, 602}
local audioBackup = backupAudioSettings(sportsCars)
displayBackupInfo(audioBackup)

Example 5: Audio Settings Validation

-- Function to validate audio settings and check for potential issues
function validateAudioSettings(modelID)
    local audioSettings = getVehicleModelAudioSettings(modelID)
    if not audioSettings then
        outputChatBox("Model " .. modelID .. ": Invalid model or failed to retrieve settings")
        return false
    end
    
    local issues = {}
    
    -- Check engine sound bank IDs
    if audioSettings["engine-on-soundbank-id"] > 410 then
        table.insert(issues, "Engine-on sound bank ID exceeds safe limit (410)")
    end
    
    if audioSettings["engine-off-soundbank-id"] > 410 then
        table.insert(issues, "Engine-off sound bank ID exceeds safe limit (410)")
    end
    
    -- Check for unusual values
    if audioSettings["horn-volume-delta"] < 0 then
        table.insert(issues, "Horn volume delta is negative")
    end
    
    if #issues > 0 then
        outputChatBox("Model " .. modelID .. " audio issues found:")
        for _, issue in ipairs(issues) do
            outputChatBox("  - " .. issue)
        end
        return false
    else
        outputChatBox("Model " .. modelID .. " audio settings are valid")
        return true
    end
end

-- Validate audio settings for multiple models
local modelsToCheck = {411, 560, 562, 451}
for _, modelID in ipairs(modelsToCheck) do
    validateAudioSettings(modelID)
end
