stopping music[SOLVED] New problem: how to make cores talk

Page 1 of 2Next

I am making my first map. I have gotten it pretty good so far. there is one problem I havent been able to fix yet. I have a music room. a few sets of buttons for a few different musics from the game. I click the "Start" button and the music starts. but when I click the "Stop" button it doesnt stop playing. how can I fix this?

Controlling Ambient_generics can be pretty buggy sometimes. There were threads on this a while back. mapping-help/ambient-generic-t3661.html
For music (since it loops) make sure the "is NOT looped" flag is unchecked, and that "start silent" is checked. If it doesn't work, I think you can send it a volume input of zero instead, but that's a bit messy.

Picture that. In your dreams.

Thanks. once I unchecked that "is not looped" flag the stop button worked perfectly.

also while we are on the subject of music do you know what the sound file of the turret serenade is?

"laser vs turret" maybe?

Crazy is as crazy does.

found it. that file is the turret wife serenade (thats what I call it)
i must've been a bit vague. i mean the final turret song cara mia addio. but this song will go good in the map too.

The turret opera at the end of the game is part of a video file, so not in the game's audio library. You could use the version released in "Songs to Test By" volume 3, however. You'll have to add it as a custom sound and pack it into the map file.

There is no "N" in "Turret."

He is refereing to this actually:

oh so I can just use that one and out it into the map file? i was thinking of using the one from that but how would I get to it from the editor? would I have to specify the location myself or would it simply be added to the list if I put it in the map?

and yea that is the "turret wife serenade" but like i said that is a good one to use too for my map.

Editor? I think you will have to use hammer for this. And just make an ambient_generic and set it as the serenade. Its called something else so just go through the music list until you find it.

I am using hammer i am trying to get cara mia addio (the turret opera) as a sound in the map. I do have an mp3 of it from the songs to test albums. how can I put it into the game so I can put it in an ambience_generic
