Calls. |

Well, if it's never been called it's not doing any harm. Might as well keep it there

Good tutorial Robin Only thing is, not everyone is up to date with the Windows Media Player control. If I remember right (I had implemented this once), there are two different versions of the control with the same name, but the syntax for using them was different. Sorry if I'm wrong, just thought you should know.

Cool. Does it work with old WMP versions, also does WMP (and other programs that use this control) still work while the music in the game is playing? |

Sorry if I'm wrong, just thought you should know.I'm pretty sure it will work no matter how old windows media player is, because all we are doing is using the very, very basic funtions (play mp3, mid, wav etc.) and stop them. I'm also pretty sure I used the correct version. I looked around and that was the reference people used when working with it. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Dave wrote: Cool.

It does for me. You can have sound coming out of both the game and Windows Media Player at the same time, but make sure you give people to option to turn off sound
As for older WMP versions, I'm 99% sure it does. |

I been wandering about a like built-in music player where plays music based off 'watever folder name' and can be anything xD. Like having ur own playlist :p. So u don't have to have like Musicmatch/Windows Media/Jukebox, etc... open xD. |

I had that for one of the Nr versions. I stole a code which searched through the PC for music files, and then allowed users to add these into playlists (or load existing WMP playlists) and play them accordingly. Don't have the source anymore though

Yay for laziness! Anyway I could get a playing song to loop? |
|

Hmm, I know ShockWave has an .Loop command, but idk if you can use that for Sound :\ But I would thing it should loop on its own unless you got an stop midi or w-e... |

This is for *.mp3 and *.wav files. Not midi. Windows media player has a loop (repeat) function. There has to be a way to call this using this method. I'm sure. |

Nope, it's for .mid as well. |
|
| Author: | Matt [ Wed May 09, 2007 4:48 pm ] |
| Post subject: | |
I meant that it's being used so *.mp3 and *.wav can be used instead of midi. |

Well, I've been searching, but in vain. Has anyone else attempted a search? |

For what? |

For anyone who hasn't found it out yet and wants to know, here's how to make the song loop. add this sub to modSound and call it during gameloop. Code: Public Sub MidiLoop()
If MusicPlayer.PlayState = mpStopped Then MusicPlayer.Play End If End Sub |
