[Solved] Play music from path?

[Darklycan51]

well since i'm importing music to the warcraft mpq.
i would like to get a trigger were you can play music from path like:
Sound\Music\mp3Music\Rise Against - Help Is On The Way.mp3

and also a trigger to make it repeat every X seconds.

(it's like the ones used in gui).

• Custom script: call PlayMusic ("Sound\\Music\\mp3Music\\Rise Against - Help Is On The Way.mp3")

But still, you can use the GUI Sound - Play music action.

oh thanks a lot, though you know how to play it again every x seconds?

and play music action makes you select a music you got in the editor and you can't
select something that isn't in the editor because i haven't edited the slk files.
i may do but for now i need a trigger for that

You can use a timer, Countdown Timer - Start MusicTimer as a repeating timer that will expire in (Length of (Last played music)) seconds and another trigger with the event Time - MusicTimer expires, and the action of PlayMusic call.

It wouldn't work because each song is more than likely a different length,

with 2 variables
song array
songtime array

music1 is 40 seconds
music2 is 70 seconds
music3 is 120 seconds


set song[1] = Muisc1
set songtime[1] = 40
set song[2] = Music2
set songtime[2] = 70
set song[3] = Music3
set songtime[3] = 120

When songtimer expires
set tempint = random number between 1 and 3
play song[tempint]
set songtimer = songtime[tempint]

You could put in a way it won't repeat the exact same song that ended as well.
