Sound Loops

[Dead_Ed]

Hi!
I just downloaded a sound loop, but I want to make it loop with no gaps in a new game I'm making.

Can anyone tell me how to ensure there's no click, or pause?

Thanks

depends how your playing it:

dynamically:

var mySound:Sound = new Sound();

mySound.attachSound("soundname");

mySound.start(0,999);

mySound.start(0 = when the sound starts 0 straight away anything else creates a delay.

mySound.start(0,999=the total number of loops to play(999);

hope this helps a little.

sorry, I have no idea how to use this script.

Do I reference the library name? I've imported the sound file to the library as "music_for_game". I just want it to play continuously without gaps.

Thanks.

right so its in the library?

right click the wav file then select the linkage from the drop down options
in this you will get a few options click the 'export for ActionScript' and in the two text feilds above (identifier and AS 2 Class) type in the name you want 'music_for_game', then press ok.(this is like giving it an instance name on a mc so the code above will find the right one.

right on the first frame simply put:

var mySound:Sound = new Sound();

mySound.attachSound("music_for_game");

mySound.start(0,999);// the 999 will loop it 999 times

if you then want to stop it put

mySound.stop();

hope this helps
