trigger_cdaudio

Not to be confused with target_cdaudio.

Todo: The deprecated template {{Base brush}}, {{Brush ent}} or {{Tf2 brush}} (and similar) was used. Use {{Entity}} instead.

trigger_cdaudio is a brush entity available in all GoldSrc engine games.

Entity description

Plays a specified track either on the CD or in the media folder when the player walks through this entity.

Note:The MP3 files loaded, and what number they are used as in this entity are hard-coded into the game, except in . Therefore, the filenames of custom MP3s must be very specific.
