What's the script to stop all sounds?

[Denvish]

stopAllSounds();

Hm.. How about making the sound fade out with that script? Is that possible?

[Denvish]

Well. The way I do fades is like this. On the first frame, I have this:

_root.s = new Sound();
_root.s.attachSound("atb"); //I don't actually use linkage in the library, though
_root.s.setVolume(80);

Then, to raise or lower the volume

_root.s.setVolume(_root.s.getVolume()+10);
_root.s.setVolume(_root.s.getVolume()-10);

You can put these on buttons or add them to a loop if you want to fade out, eg

onClipEvent(enterFrame){
_root.s.setVolume(_root.s.getVolume()-1);
if(_root.s.getVolume()==0){_root.s.setVolume(0);}
}

Play around with that. Also have a look at AS: Sound

Thanks alot

Ok what I got was

Clip events are permitted only for movie clip instances

What's gone wrong here? I entered this into the button

onClipEvent(enterFrame){
_root.s.setVolume(_root.s.getVolume()-1);
if(_root.s.getVolume()==0){_root.s.setVolume(0);}
}

^there's your answer. The code I gave you won't work on buttons

OK, so you want to use a button to fade the music.
Create a new (empty) MC and add it to the stage along with your button(s)
Select it, and add these actions:

onClipEvent(load){_root.vchange=0;}

onClipEvent(enterFrame){
if(_root.vchange==1){_root.s.setVolume(_root.s.getVolume()-1);}
else if(_root.vchange==2){_root.s.setVolume(_root.s.getVolume()+1);}
if(_root.s.getVolume==0||_root.s.getVolume==100){_root.vchange=0;}
}

then add this to your fade out button:
on(press){_root.vchange=1;}
And on your fade in button
on(press){_root.vchange=2;}

all i wanna do is make the bgm volume lower at a certain point in the movie, so i put the first script in the frame the music started and the second where i wanted it to lower, and it didn't work. what am i doing wrong? the name of the sound is Death BGM, and this is my script.

_root.s = new Sound();
_root.s.attachSound("Death BGM");
_root.s.setVolume(80);

Firstly, make sure you're using the linkeage name, not the Instance Name or the soundfile name - right-click the sound in the Library and select 'linkeage' to check/change it.
Secondly, try removing the space from 'Death BGM', ie use 'DeathBGM' both in the linkeage name, and the code. I don't know if spaces in linkeage names can cause problem, but it's something obvious that is worth eliminating as a problem.

Type DeathBGM into the Indentifier box.
