Hey guys, new here and joined because of my project im doing. Anyway....

Two words: tutorials

It's very simple, just

import it like you would a model (In the import manager)
go to the sound editor (looks like a music note, on the bar a the top of the main window)
select it
click use as music (Top left of the window)
Then make a trigger (in the trigger editor)
And make an action called

• Sound - Play Music

and set the Music to the one you imported

Adding music is easy, But the WE only supports the file types .mp3 and .wav. other then that its just a basic import.

 

[Smartman]

But, i can get any Mp3 files i have and import it to the map and it works?

Thanks for the list of instructions, will help me alot.

 

[Ardnived]

In answer to your question... yes, any .mp3 or .wav

 

[Smartman]

Ok, thanks mate.

 

[Ardnived]

no problem

 

[Smartman]

Er, uh, how do i make it so the song only happen's at the start of the game, then ends permantly?

Well, you have spent more time in this pointless thread than it would take to read a darn tutorial on music importing and using, Smartman.

emperor_d3st, ok, he/she's apparently totally new and really should go to the Tutorials section and find some tutorials, but don't be that harsh. Since he/she's asking, I will answer.

The trigger is simple.

• Music
  • Events
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 0.00 seconds
  • Actions
    • Sound - Play (your music)

Note that the action is "Sound - Play Music Theme", not "Sound - Play Music". This is the way the music is ordered to play once.

Well, not totally new, just trigger's arn't my thing. Thanks for the help.
