DOE: Sound Extension

[dulux-oz]

OK, I need some help off my fellow Community Devs - I can't get the Drag-n-Drop part of the Categories Tags working for the Sound Board part of this Extension. It works for the Sound Entry and Autosound Lists, and I can Drag-n-Drop a Sound Link from somewhere else to the new Categories list, and if the new Category is "active" on the Sound Board a new Sound Link created from a Sound Entry is placed in the new Category, but the "standard" moving a link from one category to another won't work.

I'll provide the relevant code to those who ask (via a PM or an email).

Thanks

Stupid question, but I haven't seen it addressed yet. So here goes...

Is there a way to use your own sound effects (.mp3, .wav) outside of Syrinscape? The sounds that Syrinscape provides are nice, but I have gobs of sound effects/background music, etc. that I would like to use in my campaigns.

Thanks for any replies

Yep. Basically, as long as the "sound string" you provide will work within your internet browser then you can potentially start anything. If you're pointing to a file, the type (file extension) of that file must be set to auto start a relevant application.

For example, if I have a file: D:\Temp\preview.mp3 and .mp3 files auto-run in Windows Media Player (or whatever player you use) then just adding D:\Temp\preview.mp3 as the "sound string" in the sounds extension will open your media player and play the file D:\Temp\preview.mp3 when you click the sound link. If you've setup your media player to output to the music channel you have on TS then you'll be golden.

A good test is to try the sound string in your Internet browser first and see if it works before you add it to FG.

And, of course, you can point to online musical resources. An example from soundcloud.com:

https://soundcloud.com/rpg-maker/sets/emotional-music-pack

Just use the above as your "sound string" and FG will open your registered browser and start playing.

Thanks Trenloe, ,
That's awesome, I'll give that a try when I get back to the server.

Thanks again

Actually, that functionality is a bug which has been removed from the (soon(tm) to be released) new version - although I am working on something else that will allow the type of thing that Trenloe describes

I am having a lot of fun with that bug! I keep trying to see what I can do with it.

Awesome! It looks like we are going to see a battle between two Champion Immortals. Who's taking the wagers? :P
