Installation

1. Install the resource

1. Drop the betterxSound files into a resource folder named xsound (replace your existing xSound folder if you have one).
2. Add it to your server.cfg, or rely on a bracketed folder such as [standalone]:

ensure xsound

If you are migrating from stock xSound, that is the whole process — see Migration.

2. Optional configuration

Everything works out of the box. To tune it, open config.lua:

• config.idleDuiRecycleSec — seconds of silence before the audio browser is recycled.
• config.youtubePoolMax — max simultaneous YouTube players (pooled and reused).
• config.security — anti-abuse limits for the sound trigger events.

See Configuration for details.

3. Verify

Start the server and play a sound from any resource that uses xSound (for example a music boombox or a phone). No code changes are needed in those resources.
