I decided to offer the ability to change the music (OGG files) in the Registered version of my game. This is what I am using. I post it here because of a concern and a question.
My concern is memory usage... will this load both sounds? The OGG files aren't large (about 230k and they loop) but???
The question is: Is there a better way to do this?
If KeyHit(2)=True Then
If soundflag >1
StopChannel play_annoy
play_annoy=PlaySound(annoy1)
ResumeChannel play_annoy
soundflag=1
EndIf
EndIf
If KeyHit(3)=True Then
If soundflag <2 Or soundflag >2
StopChannel play_annoy
play_annoy=PlaySound(annoy2)
ResumeChannel play_annoy
soundflag=2
EndIf
EndIf
If KeyHit(4)=True Then
If soundflag <3 Or soundflag >3
StopChannel play_annoy
play_annoy=PlaySound(annoy3)
ResumeChannel play_annoy
soundflag=3
EndIf
EndIf
A little while later I got this to control volume...
If musicflag=1 Then ChannelVolume play_annoy,0.4 Else ChannelVolume play_annoy,0
Obviously I have a soundflag and a musicflag SOUNDflag tracks which OGG file is playing and MUSICflag says *TURN SOUND ON OR OFF* by pressing M. I didn't show that because anyone reading this should be able to figure out how to check for M being pressed and modify musicflag.
Any ideas out there? Is this the simplest way?
