sciAudio is here! Check out the "LockerGnome Quest Redux" demo game to see it in action! ------------------------------- Features ------------------------------- - Playback of WAV and MP3 files - Unlimited number of sounds playing simultaneously - Fade in/out, looping and volume control - Classification of sounds for playback management - Multiple commands may be issued simultaneously to the 'controller' file - Multiple controller files to avoid resource contention - Runs hidden in background & will terminate itself shortly upon game close - Calls to sciAudio are performed very similarly to the built-in SCI sound calls - Poor man's encryption (MP3's only) - simply rename your .MP3 to be .sciAudio - Log file for troubleshooting sound playback ('sciAudio.log' located in same directory as sciAudio.exe) ------------------------------- Limitations ------------------------------- Works only in Windows (requires .NET framework) ------------------------------- Setup ------------------------------- 1) Place the 2 nAudio DLLs & executable into a subfolder within your game named 'sciAudio' 2) Create subfolders within sciAudio for your playback files. Something like this 3) Include the sciAudio.sc script & 'use' it in any script you wish to have sciAudio playback in ------- Changes in 1.1 ------- - Fixed occassional crashing of sciAudio when multiple sounds are attempted to be played at the same time - Modified sciAudio to immediately close when game is closed - In-Game volume controls now supported, both volume change levels and on/off toggling - Decreased sciAudio script size from 3.07K to 1.18K --------------- Important Notes --------------- - There are several new files/updates necessary to allow sciAudio to function properly: - sciAudio.sh - contains constants referenced within sciAudio.sc - TEXT.100 (or whatever text res number you wish to use) - contains static strings that are written out to the COMMAND.CON file - menubar.sc - modified to include calls to sciAudio for the volume controls (including on/off functionality) |
