I want a method to play a BGM from before battle, through battle to end battle without it restarting?

[B@yonett@ 0]

I made a post like this before but i cant use switches and the scripting messed my head up. I want to know how i can have a BGM play from start till after battle and though it without it restarting when battle starts and when it finishes?? :huh:

Can anyone help me??

And just to say if you say 'do this and make a switch of that and stuff' then it would be alien talk to me because out of the 6 years i have been using RPG Makers i have never used switches in my life as i have found easier routes for myself but i cannot find an alternate route for this problem. Im happy to go along with scripting as long as someone tells me in a more English way rather than far to much techincal talk. lol soz about this peeps its just i really want this intro level done with Bayonettas Fly me to the moon playing thru, before and after the battles without the music starting over when battles start and end. :yes: many thanks in adavcen to those who help me ^^ :D

but you should seriously learn switches man.

[B@yonett@ 0]

:( well i have a dissability ya know so dont make it out like im thick or lame. i find alot of things very hard to learn. hence why switches have never clicked to me because it made no sence and if it made no sence then obviously my minds not gonna rtake intrest in it

[Ragnyrok 3]

Valdred's response has nothing to do with Switches.

[Valdred 1]

just post the code into your game :biggrin_002:

[Polraudio 122]

Switches are not very hard to learn. If you can make a full game without using one switch or variable you would be the luckiest person alive.

You need to learn switched in order to make a game. Without them your game might as well be played preschoolers.

 

You wont be able to stop events when needed.

 

So i suggest you make a topic asking how to use switches or find a tutorial. It will only take 5min to learn.

 

EDIT: How long have you been using RPG Maker?

[Agckuu_Coceg 5]

Bayonetta, you think that we here all know the polls RPG Maker and all its possibilities?

 

Yes it is even the Enterbrain not know. All had once learned from the beginning.

Just train slightly, study the event functions ... And the easiest way - open a couple of open source projects and demos and see how others work. I've so far been RM studying, and I followed one and a half years passed.

 

And about your problem - I know a couple of scripts.

I lay out by their links to other requests, find them here.

 

This is Fmodex audio dll and BGM without restarting.

Can you please post threads in the right forums?
