1. I can't sync the sound in my game (Win)
Hi,
I'm making a slot machine game for Windows and I can't get the .wav sound
of the reels stopping to synchronize with the graphics. I tried modifying
Win32Lib (.45r) by changing the line
result = c_func( xPlaySound, {file_string, NULL, or_bits(SND_FILENAME,
SND_ASYNC)})
to
result = c_func( xPlaySound, {file_string, NULL, or_bits(SND_FILENAME,
SND_SYNC)})
and adding the constant
SND_SYNC = #00000000
and the .wavs went from playing all at once to playing with a slight delay
between them but it still isn't close to being syncronized. The sound
effects are set in the code to play after the reels stop. I even tried
using the time() function to get it to sync but that didn't go anywhere.
Can you help?
Thanks,
Jeramie

If you *just* want to stop a current .wav file from playing, try using this
directly.
atom junk
junk = c_func( xPlaySound, { NULL, NULL, NULL} )

Hi everybody,
I probably wasn't clear. I'm not trying to stop the .wav file from
playing, I'm trying to get the .wav file to play after each of the 9 reels
of the slot machine stops, but what it's doing now is playing the .wav file
9 times before the first reel stops. The stopping of the reels isn't
synchronized with the sound effect of a stopping-reel. Can anyone help?
Thanks for the idea anyway Wolf.
Sincerely,
Jeramie
