Hello!

I'm quite new to Wintermute and is currently working on a small project. I have unfortunately run into a problem:

I have a background music playing in channel 0. When the player interacts with objects I want to crossfade channel 0 to channel 1. So, my background music fades into another song.
After a while I want the music to fade back - so that my original background music is the one playing. My problem is that I want the original music to continue from where it stopped and not start over from the beginning.
Basically, what I want is:

Channel 0 - Play
Channel 1 - Fade in and Channel 0 - Fade Out.
Channel 1 - Play
Channel 0 - Fade in and resume from where it stopped (or continue to play it at volume zero) and channel 1 fade out.

The important thing is the fade - I don't want to stop the music suddenly and that my background piece continues.
Help is very much appreciated =)

Hi there.

Crossfading is no problem, see here :

For the position of the music, you can look here :

http://docs.dead-code.org/wme/generated/scripting_ref_game.html#GetMusicChannelPosition


So it's all possible without problems

Thanks for the help!

In SetMusicChannelPosition - is it possible to use a variable as the milliseconds?
I don't want the background music to fade in at the exact same position - instead I want it to fade in where it was stopped.
Perhapss with GetMusicPosition stored as a var?

Edit: Yes, it worked! I used GetMusicChannelPosition to store the position to a variable and then I put that var instead of milliseconds.
Thanks again for the links!
