Talk:PlaySound

Dragoon Wraith TALK 21:59, 28 July 2006 (EDT): OK, I want to play a sound so long as X is true, how do I set that up? How long does a sound play for? Is there anyway to stop it?
- As long as you've set up your sound to loop, it will play indefinitely. There's no stopSound function like Morrowind had, which is annoying. However, displaying a message or messageBox will stop the sound. So will starting a new sound. If you create a silent wav file, you can call playSound <silentSoundID> to stop the currently playing sound. Scruggs 22:18, 28 July 2006 (EDT)
- Dragoon Wraith TALK 01:29, 29 July 2006 (EDT): Ah, good call! Thanks as always, scruggs!
- At the moment I have it set to not loop, and I just call it every 3 seconds (the file is 3 seconds long) while it's supposed to be playing. I noticed it wasn't very consistent - is there any reason why this might not work as intended?
