NEON APIResource-owned vehicle audio

Available in Neon, not standard MTA

Stops the calling resource's custom vehicle audio, restores GTA audio, and releases the global lease.

Syntax

Copy signature

bool engineUnloadVehicleAudioConfig()

Returns

true when the calling resource owned and unloaded the configuration; false otherwise.

Ownership and lifecycle

One client resource owns the global vehicle-audio lease. Reloading replaces its definitions and restarts the lazy bank state; unloading, resource shutdown, or client teardown stops active audio, restores GTA's vehicle sound, and releases the lease.

Important behavior

• Resource shutdown and client teardown run the same cleanup automatically. Commit fd9045ae added teardown guards for this path.

engineLoadVehicleAudioConfig Acquires the client-wide vehicle-audio lease and loads Soundize-compatible model definitions from the calling resource. engineReloadVehicleAudioConfig Reparses the current owner's definitions and schedules a clean lazy restart of the vehicle-audio banks. enginePlayVehicleAudioBackfire Plays a normal or high custom backfire on a vehicle already active in the owned audio system.
