Hi all,

Trying to use Game.PlaySoundEvent("sound", "event"); in a window script. It works fine in a scene, but in a window, the sound plays but the event never executes. Although if I replace the "event" with a this.some-method, the method executes but then the sound doesn't play

Any ideas how I get the event to execute? Should it work or should I be using an entity instead?

Thanks

Code: [Select]

on "George"
  {
  s = "scenes\07_Pub_Reception\JuliaGeorge.ogg";
  this.DoIt();
  }

method DoIt()
  {
  this.Disable();
  this.PlaySoundEvent(s, "Enable");
  }

method Disable()
  {
  Game.Interactive = false;
  Game.Msg("Disabling prompts");
  a = this.GetControl("Fire");
  a.Disabled = true;
  a.Visible = false;
  a = this.GetControl("George");
  a.Disabled = true;
  a.Visible = false;
  }

on "Enable"
  {
  Game.Msg("Prompts enabled");
  a = this.GetControl("Fire");
  a.Disabled = false;
  a.Visible = true;
  a = this.GetControl("George");
  a.Disabled = false;
  a.Visible = true;
  Game.Interactive = true;
  }

I don't know, it looks like it should work. I can't test it right now.
If you used an entity, you would be able to use the Talk() method, which pauses the script execution until the talking is over (I suppose that's what you're trying to achieve).

I'll give the 'Talk' a try. First time we've used speaking characters as such. Yet more of the built-in brilliance of this engine.

Cheers
