Sounds in Algodoo

Postby uCriterion » Sat Jan 26, 2013 12:07 pm

Hello everyone, I wrote a program to play sounds in Algodoo.



Step 1
Download program with sounds samples and unzip to %USERPROFILE%/Documents/Algodoo

Step 2
Run snd.exe together with Algodoo.

Step 3
Put the sound files that you want to use in %USERPROFILE%/Documents/Algodoo/sounds (or subfolders).

Step 4
Use script
Code: Select all
System.WriteToFile("snd.file","<file location>/<file name>.<file extension> ");

For example, open the console with "~" and enter
Code: Select all
System.WriteToFile("snd.file","glass2.wav ");

or create a box and in the field onCollide= write
Code: Select all
(e)=>{System.WriteToFile("snd.file", "materials/wood.wav ")}

File location relative to the directory %USERPROFILE%/Documents/Algodoo/sounds

Note 1
After the file extension must be one or more spaces.

Note 2
Modifiers:
Play sound if not playing System.WriteToFile("snd.file","glass2.wav ")
Stop sound if playing System.WriteToFile("snd.file","-glass2.wav ")
Stop and play sound System.WriteToFile("snd.file","*glass2.wav ")
Stop all playing sounds System.WriteToFile("snd.file","stop ")

Note 3
It is better to create a separate folder in the sounds/ for audio files from each scene

Note 4
In console You can initialize function
Code: Select all
scene.my.PlaySound:=(name)=>{System.WriteToFile("snd.file","materials/"+name+" ")}
then to play sounds in "sounds/materials/" directory enough script
Code: Select all
Scene.my.PlaySound("glass1.wav");

Code: Select all
vel>7.90?{System.WriteToFile("snd.file", "materials/wood.wav ")}:{}

Completely. Script System.WriteToFile writes the title of sound to "snd.file", where it reads and plays my program. No more.
2. Yeap. You can use this script.
