Thanks, appreciate it.

I am, yes. Preferably you could make your own "add-on" mod with this as a requirement but I consider my code open source.
Mr. Designer ♥♥♥♥ Feb 13, 2022 @ 10:37am 
Just to confirm, are you fine with me re-uploading this source code with credit and a link to this mod?

I wouldn't seay "easy" but you can view my source code here if you want to take a shot at making your own: https://github.com/ZluskeN/ZSN_Whistle .

Is there an easy way to add sounds to the Bugle? I'd like to add some more tunes specific to my Milsim unit.

Thank you, very much!

Found it! The new ACE3 CBA integration broke the item, it should work now.
ZluskeN  [author] Nov 21, 2017 @ 11:09am 
Yes, can confirm the mod is broken atm, probably some change in the latest arma update broke it. I'm trying to figure out what. If anyone knows what is wrong and how to fix, please let me know.

Unfortunately it doesn't work for me, I can't give it to my unit, neither with the Virtual Arsenal.
ZluskeN  [author] Sep 26, 2017 @ 9:57am 
Thank you very much for the helpful bug report :) It should be fixed now, can't believe nobody noticed that before.

Just so you know there is a bug where you can only hear the whistle 100m away.
The fix it to replace:
[_unit,_sounds select floor random count _sounds] remoteExec ["say3d"];

With:
[_unit,[_sounds select floor random count _sounds,1600,1]] remoteExec ["say3d"];

As say 3d has a default range of 100 unless otherwise specified.

New version uploaded. I've added two keybinds for shorter dot and dash signals (shift-o and ctrl-o), rebindable of course. Let me know if you have ideas for better keybinds or suggestions for exactly how long the signals should be.

Sounds awesome, thank you so much! If anything if doing some sort of kind bind isnt possible, then simply just doing a system like you did with this through ace should be perfectly fine!
ZluskeN  [author] Jun 6, 2017 @ 1:46am 
You mean morse code right? I think I'd have to do it with two separate keybinds
(one for dot and one for dash). I could probably extract them from the "burst" sound file.
I haven't experimented with custom keybinds before but I'm gonna give it a shot.

Ive been looking tirelessly for a whistle that can do short and long bursts by either user key press (Like a binded key or mouse click, holding down for longer, simply clicking for short) or two options like you have setup for communcation to nearby teams instead of using radios (For ww2/ww1 stuff, ect) the top most option you currently have setup is perfect for a long burst, but the secondary one actually labeled "burst" or something along those lines has a audio file that just has it bursting over and over again for a few seconds which makes it impossible to use for the "dots and dashes" system. If your open to the idea of creating a system like that, id be more than happy to throw some money your way as thanks, I also have a full document more properly identifying the kind of communication im talking about, so if your kinda confused by my bullshit feel free to add me and I can send you a google doc with flow charts and ect.
ZluskeN  [author] Jun 3, 2017 @ 12:06am 
Sure, request away and we'll see if I like it :)
