why can't I have more than one sound_volume going at once?
i want a sound for city, then as you move out it fades to wind and no city sound but game maker can't seem to do more than one sound_volume code at once

we require a programming/game making subforum
i think game making would be better than the programming board we used to have because it also encompasses game theory and level design and such.

but i would have to say in this regard GM is very limited with sound
however if you're using gm 8 you might be able to use some sort of DLL. I haven't ever used one but I know the old spelunky(made in GM 8) used something called supersound.dll.

are you trying to alter the volume of multiple instances of the same sound? you can't use the name of the original sound file otherwise it'll apply the effect to all of those sound instances.
You could try something like this.
sound[1]=sou_resource
play_sound(sound[1])
sound_volume(sound[1],1)
baring in mind this is from memory and i don't know if i'm right.

Yes I gave each sound it's own variable but won't work.
wind=sound_loop(windloop)
city=sound_loop(cityloop)
sound_volume(city,0.5)
sound_volume(wind,1)
no work. can't do more than one sound_volume

i did a test and it works for me in GM 8.0 pro heres the gmk: skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=47B428C6778B5925%21152arrow keys to move left and right the only reason I could see why it wouldnt work is if you used some other file type that is not WAV MP3 files wont work, for sure... in fact you can't play 2 mp3 sounds at the same time in GM 8 |

I think it's the way you did it. Maybe it's that the sounds can't all be controlled by one object? Thanks orange! and.. your code certainly looks a lot more professional than what I do...

oh tnhanks but ill bet sounds can be controlled by one object... Yes I gave each sound it's own variable but won't work. wind=sound_loop(windloop) city=sound_loop(cityloop) sound_volume(city,0.5) sound_volume(wind,1) no work. can't do more than one sound_volume i've never done it that way, maybe you could just try it the simple way: sound_loop(windloop) sound_loop(cityloop) sound_volume(cityloop,0.5) sound_volume(windloop,1) if that doesn't work idk what will |

eh i use supersound for sound stuff, it supports .ogg files and has it's own volume function that seems to work nicely. SS_SetSoundVolume or something i forget
