i have a sound clip (.wav) playing. its about 30sec long. problem is i dont know how to stop it. i tried bgmusic:stop() (bgmusic is the var for the file) then it says something to the effect of loop in gettable. i forget exactly what it said. can anyone help me out?

Load your sound file into a variable like this: (use false if you don't want it to loop)

mySound = Sound.load("sound.wav",true)

Then later you can stop it by using:

mySound:stop()

thats basically what i have. and it gives me this error message "loop in gettable"

Yeah i dont like .wav sounds. you can only have like 45 seconds of it. but im too lazy to do it in a different format. and when you do a 3mb mp3, it goes to a 64mb .wav file. it pretty much sux so you have to put it on a really really bad quality. Mine works fine though. only i have this

thanks that works. now i have another sound question. i would like music to play during a race. problem is i have sounds for the engine constantly playing. the music plays for about half a second before it is drowned out by the engine. is the problem that the music isnt load enough or that the constant engine sounds override the music?
heres the code i have for the engine. if i take it out the music plays fine. but i still want to have the other sounds. is there anyway to keep them both?

you need to load music and not all .wav files. make your engine noise .wav and your music .it(best choice i dont know). then do this:

does anyone know where some good converters are? ive looked a few times but never found any good ones.

[youresam]

You found a CONVERTER? But it wasnt good??

Look, the MOD format is like MIDI, all composed of beats. .it, .mod, .xm, .s3m, ect are different MOD formats. Search for Modplug Tracker. Thats what I believe to be the best MOD mixer.[/u]

sorry. like i said i only used .wav files. but here are the "music" types supported if you dont know

UNI, IT, XM, S3M, MOD, MTM, STM, DSM, MED, FAR, ULT or 669

but looking around what does this do?

[wekilledbambi03]

im not sure about the volume thing but i do believe that the sound is mono. also has anyone noticed that if you write in a new font the sound gets really slow?

if it was stereo you could make a robot! you see here are my master plans. you take psp apart. rewire the cross button, and others for sensors. then the only out put is sound so connect your speaker wires to a headphone amplifier to pump up the signal. then write some code so if one of the sensors get bumbed, play a diffrent sound or no sound.

record a sound so the balance is all on the right for left turns, record a sound so the balance is all on the left for right turns then make a sound so the balance is equal for straight forward driving. then you make a kill switch sensor so if it goes off of stairs or something no sound would be played and your robot would stop moving.

the robot would have to be 2 wheels because there are only two speakers and you would void your warranty. but it sounds practical but you would have to really make the sound signal strong.

...Or just buy a LEGO Mindstorms set for less than the cost of a PSP and build all the robots you want.

whats the fun in that?
