Playing audio files

by Richard Skala · in Torque Game Builder · 12/11/2009 (5:25 pm) · 1 replies

How do you play sounds and audio files in TGB? Is there a tutorial somewhere? I haven't seen any documentation on playing sounds.

Thanks.

There are a few articles on TDN. Section 8 of the asteroids tutorial covers adding audio files to that example game. There's also a music tutorial in the archive section - it's archived mainly because the fish demo is no longer included as a pre-installed example in TGB 1.7.4. If you read through it though, it should give you an idea of how audio datablocks and the alxPlay function work.
