Hi, mod here! Quick question, how do you play sound in the program? I got something like this sndMusicLoop=LoadSound("____________.wav") ; Set the sound loop LoopSound sndMusicLoop PlaySound sndMusicLoop Only question is, what do you put here: ____________? Thanks

Only you can answer that question as only you know the name of the file you are trying to play: sndMusicLoop=LoadSound("whatever_the_name_of_the_file_is.wav")

okay... sorry, just realized someone answered this... but how will the program know to find it?

You need to know the path to the file. If the sound file is in same directory as your source or executable ithe filensme alone should be fine.

when the file is in the same directory as the .bb or .exe file is : "File.wav" when the file is in a directory child to the directory where the .bb or .exe file is : "Directory/File.wav"
