Game Design / Super Sound Guide for YoSniper's Engine
« on: June 26, 2013, 06:12:49 PM »
Intro
This guide will assume that you are using the YoSniper's Newest Engine or that the engine you are using is similar. Super Sound uses OGG files, so make sure you convert them using Audacity, a free audio editing software.
YoSniper's Newest Engine
Audacity
Step 1. Installing
Download the Super Sound Extension here https://gmc.yoyogames.com/index.php?showtopic=462692
Make a Music Folder to put in your OGG music files and put the folder in the same location as your Game Maker project.
Open your Game Maker project and install the extension by going through the ?Resources? tab and clicking ?Select Extension Packages?.
Find and Install the Super Sound Extension Package.
You can also check the help file for more information on the functions you can use with the extension.
Step 2. World Object
Now we need to initialize Super Sound. Go to your ?world? object and go to the ?create event? script and add in the line.
SS_Init();
Initializing Super Sound means we also need to Unload it before the game is closed.
Change the ?Press F4 Event? script to this:
if keyboard_check(vk_alt) { SS_Unload(); game_end (); }
And for both the ?Press Esc Event? and ?Close Button Event? change the script to this:
SS_Unload(); game_end();
Also, disable 'Let <Esc> end the game' in the Global Game Setting menu.
Step 3. Music Script
In the Scripts Folder find musicFunction.
Then you?ll change each ?case?.
The startRoom case should look like this:
case startRoom:
if filePlaying != 1 { filePlaying = 1;
if SS_IsHandleValid(bgm) = 1 { SS_FreeSound(bgm); }
bgm = SS_LoadSound('Music/title.ogg',1); SS_PlaySound(bgm); }
break;
Default case should look like this:
default:
if filePlaying != 0 { filePlaying = 0;
if SS_IsHandleValid(bgm) = 1 { SS_FreeSound(bgm); } }
break;
You?ll want to copy paste those as you add more room so for example, your first area would look like this:
case stage1a:
if filePlaying != 3 { filePlaying = 3;
if SS_IsHandleValid(bgm) = 1 { SS_FreeSound(bgm); }
bgm = SS_LoadSound('Music/stage1a.ogg',1); SS_LoopSound(bgm); }
break;
To choose which music you are playing change ?Music/file.ogg? to something else. Make sure the ?filePlaying? is changed if you are switching to a new music. If you need to change music in the middle of a stage use the same code but make sure it is handled by the world object by doing this:
with(world){ if filePlaying != 5 { filePlaying = 5;
if SS_IsHandleValid(bgm) = 1 { SS_FreeSound(bgm); }
bgm = SS_LoadSound('Music/boss.ogg',1); SS_LoopSound(bgm); } }
I think that?s it, I really hope I didn?t forget anything and I hope this helps.

Programming Questions / Re: Making music not restart
« on: June 24, 2013, 08:57:13 AM »Hey guys, I was just wondering what I have to do to to make the music not resetting, because I can't really figure it out on my own.What engine are you using?
If you're using Yuutu go in the room editor and right click the music object and click creation code. Then enter something similar to this:
if !sound_isplaying(song) { sound_loop(song); }
Then in the scripts folder and find killPlayer
Find and remove this line of code: sound_stop_all();
And change the line sound_play(sndOnDeath); to sound_play(sndDeath);
In the "world" object find the "Press-R" event and remove the line sound_stop_all();
Hope this helps

This is pretty simple and probably almost everyone knows this but I was asked this question a few times so I made this quick tutorial on how to get rid of a color and make it 100% transparent.
Hope this helps.

Alright so twitch is back. If you want everything to work right change your password, log off your account, and log back in.
However some people are having problems with twitch asking them to constantly change their passwords, no idea what that's about.
Damnit twitch
