Hi,

I started working on a custom dungeon and added a custom sound to it.

To do so I added my wav file in the sounds folder, and edited the sounds.lua file in the "mod_assets\scripts" folder and added :

Code: Select all

defineSound{
name = "evil",
filename = "mod_assets/sounds/evil.wav",
loop = false,
volume = 1,
minDistance = 30,
maxDistance = 32,
}

Then I added a lua script entity to my dungeon triggered by a pressure plate :

Code: Select all

function evil()
	playSound("evil")
end

At this point I had to restart the dungeon editor to make the whole thing work and hear my sound in the preview mode.
I don't know if this is normal or not... Anyway I managed to hear my sound in preview mode.

But, after exporting my dungeon I tried it in the game and got that message :

Here is the error log :

Is it a bug or am I wrong somewhere?

I second this! Game is crashing with custom sounds, while they are played without problems in dungeon editor preview.

Your strings look good and all, you may try removing the indent from "playSound" line, and also try it without the min/max distance lines just to narrow down the variables. also try converting the wav file thru

http://media.io

and see if perhaps youre having a compatability issue.

I've made a few test and game is crashing when sound is in stereo (though it works without problems in editor).
