Title: SUGGESTION: Sound in animation preview
Post by: Janik on Wed 15/11/2006 06:22:34
The animation preview is really useful, I especially like how you can change things in the animation while the preview is running!

But, as the subject indicates, I was thinking that having sound play during the animation previews would be a really great addition. It would be very useful when trying to time footstep sounds, for example.

Also, I was wondering if there is a way to change the game speed used for the preview. It seems to be 40 frames per second by default, but if a game used a different value it would be handy to change it in the preview.

Thanks!

Well, since V2.72, the preview feature can play frame sounds if and only if they're in .WAV format. For more info. about previous discussions, see this thread (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/yabb/index.php?topic=18067.0).

The second suggestion sounds reasonable though (even when you can set the delay, true replay speed combining with certain set FPS would be good).

Ah, thanks for pointing that out; I had only tried MP3-format sound effects.
