directsound

i want to play a sound wav effect but when i add directsound to layout theres nowhere

to put which file you want to play.

Use an external .wav file, and use the Autoplay file action. Or, add the file as a resource, and play it using the Autoplay Resource action.

Once you've inserted DirectSound, you have several options to play sound effects.

The simplest is to open up the Resource Bar (tabbed down on the right) and right click Binary Resources. Then add your sound effects. These can be played via the 'Autoplay resource' action under DirectSound.

If you don't want to use resources, play them as external files via the other actions.

i can't hear anything though

The files have to be PCM WAVs.

oops soz something wrong with sound not construct

Can I get sounds to play over several frames?

You should be able to, but global objects dont seem quite with it at the moment. I'll try have that sorted soon.
