Is it possible to play more than one sound with it? I'm making a plugin where I want the player to land on a planet, be forced off, and have three sounds played in order. Seemingly, the Pxxx operator only plays the last sound encountered in the queue. I have tried using separate missions (via the Sxxx operator), and it still only plays the last one. Does anybody have any ideas short of remixing them together (which I really don't want to do)?

Mixing shouldn't be that hard. Theoretically, you could just copy/paste them in order into a snd resource. Right?

I have no program to do this. I was just using three sounds from the nova scenario, and I don't have any clue how to mix them, which is why I was asking about playing them in order.
There are plenty of free programs out there that can splice sounds together. I think the problem you are having is that it is trying to play them all at once, and the engine can only handle one triggered sound at a time.
When you use the Sxxx operator, it starts the next mission right away. That means that it will try to play the sounds all at once.

Is there any way to delay it like a sec so that they are delayed slightly? If not, I suppose I just won't worry about the sound thing. It's not too important anyways...
Unfortunatly, there is no way to do a real time delay, only delays in game-days, which isn't really helpful.
Ah, okay, thanks.

Ugh, I see what you mean. Bleh, I guess I'll just mix it... :frown: Anybody know of a good program to do this?

If you are using ResEdit, that was what I was talking about. Copy/paste the binary code into a sound resource in order. Would this work?
Anyhow, I use a program called "SoundEffects." I don't remember where I got it, but I used it to make the "Flight of the Parrots" song from Swoop and it worked great. I now have it in mp3 format, thanks to iTunes.
I doubt that would work, unless ResEdit has a built-in sound management library. Like pretty much anything else, you need header information to define sound data, such as sample rate, bit depth, number of bytes of data, and so on. A simple concatenation of <header1><data1><header2><data2> would certainly not work.

Oh yeah...

If you are on the mac, just do a search on versiontracker.com for audio.
