editing sound

Post by linflas »

my first sound is played when mouse triggers a wallitem. i want to play another sound a few seconds later, triggered by the wallitem.
i tried to put some relay between them but i can't assign a sound to a relay.
any idea ? (except using a unique sample for both sounds with a 5 seconds silence between them)

Been a while since I've used the editor -- can the relay trigger a sound object?

hmmm.. i know understand how localised sounds work : by default, sound isn't played. i was lost because there are no "active/inactive" checkboxes in the editor.

The sound objects aren't turn-on-and-offable; they are one-hit wonders.

When you activate one it will play its sound, activate it again and it will play it again...

You could have the wallitem set as a trigger and have it activate the first sound item and also a relay set on a delay that will activate the next sound item.

ok another problem. but i don't hink there's a solution with actual sound objects : i want to put a music when you choose your hero but i can't activate a wallitem ambient music if the party has no member...
it works in DM2-RTC because you start with Thoram.
