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

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

Note.pngNote:The MP3 files loaded, and what number they are used as in this entity are hard-coded into the game, except in Condition Zero Deleted Scenes. Therefore, the filenames of custom MP3s must be very specific.
Note.pngNote:In early retail (WON) versions of the game, only CD Audio support was support. Later WON versions added undocumented MP3 playback which was used in the Steam release.
