Questions about music and sound

dondan89

Hello,

I had add music and sound, when the music is playing on the game, why when the sound comes the music stops?

How can I make it so the music won't stop when it plays the sound?

thank you

I am not really sure. But I think its as simple as this.

Have an actor playing a music. In the actor say:

When boolean attribue game.Music=true
Play Music

I think now The music always will play when the game.Music is true.

Try no just making a sound with your character or whatever and see if this works

Hope I'm not being too obvious but just in case I'm not, here's something:

You can only run one piece of music at a time, whereas you can run multiple sounds at once.
So make sure your music is imported as music and your sounds are imported as sounds.
Music should be m4a and sounds OGG or CAF. Otherwise if you have another file format it will ask you which type of audio you want it to be. The downside with that is it could bloat your file size as you have no control over compression.

If you knew that already then forgive me.

Hope that helps

Sweet!
Things like this make me wish there were a Gamesalad Starter Guide. A simple online manual (downloadable PDF?) that gives us the 101 version of all the basics. It struck me that there's nothing like this. Sure, it could hyperlink to the Cookbook questions and videos. Even just how to get the viewer correctly installed using Xcode seems to be a trial sometimes.
Perhaps when Gamesalad 1.0 is released huh?......
Good luck with it anyway!
