I dont know how to add a sound , for exemple, when a quest is accepted. There is posible?
Let's say that i have a general sound in background. When the actor accept the quest i want to play a quest sound. Something like that!
Note: if there is topics with this subject, i really want the link.

this is a coding thing, I don't know what mode you're using (and if it's RPG, I don't know RPG scripting), but here's some pseudocode based on fps cubescript:
Code: Select all
level_trigger_1 = [showgui person]
newgui person [
guitext "hi, what's up?"
guibar
guibutton "not much" [showgui person2]
guibutton "(say nothing)" [cleargui]
]
newgui person2 [
guitext "I need you to go on a quest."
guibar
guibutton "yes." [sound code plays; showgui person3]
guibutton "no" [cleargui]
like said, I don't know the specific code to play the sound, but I believe you can have the sound play if you have it activated after selecting a guioption that way.

Hi,
I looked in the rpgscript.cpp file and found this reference.
Code: Select all
ICOMMAND(r_sound, "ss", (const char *p, const char *r),
if(*r)
{
getreference(r, ent, ent->getent(entidx), , r_sound)
playsoundname(p, &ent->getent(entidx)->o);
}
else
playsoundname(p);
)
So maybe there is a r_sound() function you can call in the script and pass it the sound file?
I could not find any tutorials or references as to how to get this to work so you will have to play with it and
see if it works.

It works but not as expected. Here is what I coded up.
Code: Select all
// Lou NPC script
include scripts/1
//start conversation
r_script_node "main" [result "[Move along and stay out of trouble.]"] [
r_response "Will do." normal //goes to dialogue normal
r_sound "/aard/bang"
r_response "Goodbye" "" //closes the dialogue
]
//normal path
r_script_node "normal" [result "[Have a nice day.]" ] [
r_response "Goodbye" ""
]
The issues are that the file needs to be a wave type and also the sound plays as soon as the the text branch is entered regardless
of how you respond. So it is firing at a higher level than the conversation code it running. Maybe it would be better to set a variable
when you enter the correct text path and then let that trigger the sound to play. It is just a thought.
Regards,
Lou

Actually not. PAS supports mp3 and ogg, too. 2.8 does add FLAC support.

Then put the command into the respond
