SoundManager

SoundManager is a lightweight module for playing and replicating one-shot sounds.

Usage

For usage and installation instructions, please take a look at the documentation.

Why

Sounds are an important part of every game, and I felt that the process of cloning sounds on the server to play them was under-performant and tedious. This module uses buffers and an UnreliableRemoteEvent to deliver the best performance possible when replicating sounds.

Seems to be private for some odd reason, mind checking its distribution settings?

This looks so promising and would save me some time, although when I tried it I ran into an issue… It won’t work, I tried putting print statements into the module, nothing happens…

This is my code

local replicatedStorage = game:GetService('ReplicatedStorage')
local soundModule = require(replicatedStorage.Modules.Utils.SoundManager)
soundModule.Play(replicatedStorage.Sounds.Pop, {player})

You need to require it on the client and server for the replication to work. If you are, maybe I didn’t publish the latest version right.

Ohhhh, that makes sense, atm it’s just required on the server. Not sure if you have a disclaimer for that anywhere (If not, you should add one for the slow ones like me <3)
I’ll try it out!
