Why dose TGB refuse...

by Robert Carroll · in Torque Game Builder · 10/10/2009 (11:02 pm) · 1 replies

I got this BG music and I want to put it in my game. Since Im a n00b im just testing with my gun *Sound Works* so I put my gun to play my BG music try it it dosn't play. So I rename my BG music shoot so its as if its the "shoot" sound. I try again and this time it plays a random sound profile. So I delete that profile then try again. This time it plays a different random profile. Its like its refusing to play my BG music. Is it because its to long of a WAV dose it have to be .ogg?

If you just put "alxPlay(YourBackgroundSoundAudioProfile);" into the console, what happens?

Also, what does your AudioProfile look like?

Finally, even though TGB can play WAV files, I still recommend using OGGs simply because of the vast filesize difference.

P.S. One last tip while I've got you. You should always try to use a descriptive title on your forums posts. When I'm searching the forums for the answer to one of my questions, I'm forced to click on all bad forum titles because I don't know if they will answer my question or not. Thanks!
