and when i want to load a sound it gives a error

YOu mean the code of loading the sound, where the error takes place...
well simple

Sound.load("swordslash.wav")

[seanpaul223]

Just act like this:

System.oaenable()
Sound.load("yourStuff.wav")
--code
--code
System.oadisable()--when you have fisished playing sounds

I advise you to create only ONE thread where you'll post your questions instead of making new threads anytime.Seems to me you have many things to ask.

kay I will follow that adivise of you
btw thnx that fixed the problem but now there comes another problem
I went from LuaplayerHM2 too LuaplayerHM7 RC1 so there are things that causes errors...
The next error I get is:
Argument error: image:blit() takes 3,4,7 or 8 arguments and MUST be called with a colon

I tried screen:blit but it still shows the same error...

code is :
screen.blit(0,0-storyy,storyimg0)

[seanpaul223]

Basically Image:blit() function must be called this way:

image:blit(x, y, ImageSource, [sourcex, sourcey, width, height], [alpha = true])

X and Y are the coordinates where you want to blit your Image
ImageSource is The variable where you previously loaded the picture.
[sourcex , sourcey,width & height] are optional: they are the position in the source image, from where a rectangle of the size width/height is copied.
[alpha = true] is also optional.

Then what you have to check out is that:

• stroryy must be a number
• you must have loaded previously an picture into stroyimg0 variable.

Do not ask everytime answers to basic problems of code such like this, just find a way to solve'em yourself and if it seems really ambiguous, then ask.This is the only way you'll learn more.

And pay attention to this Link

Agree with sean, you need to figure more things out for yourself. Though that link is a bit outdated.

Thats true and I always use google before i start asking questions here..
But the problem is that i normally I use luaplayer v0.20 and those little functions
are different in each luaplayer.. I made my code with luaplayerHMV2 but i found out that The music play function in v2 is bugged so i wanted to translate my code to LUaplayerhm7 RC1 and searching all those little functions which I have to change is imposible...

I'm pretty sure that Homemister always releases any LPHM version with a Txt file which lists the main functions.You should have read it before.

Thats true but in the functions txt file you cannot find how to use every function.. Thats one thing another thing is that not all functions are written in this text file I couldn't find anything about image.bliting

I found the problem LuaplayerHM7 RC1 do not use image.blit() function
But you must enter screen.blit() i just forgot to replace . with : .

But back to the sound problem...
When i do my sound code like this

soundplay=soundplay+1
System.oaenable()
if soundplay == 400 then
Music.playFile("music/background/bgmusic1.mod", true)
sanviastoryvc=Sound.load("music/voices/sanviastory.wav")
local sound = sanviastoryvc
voice=sound:play()
end
System.oadisable()

it will freeze the game when soundplay==1

and when I use it like this

if soundplay == 400 then
System.oaenable()
Music.playFile("music/background/bgmusic1.mod", true)
sanviastoryvc=Sound.load("music/voices/sanviastory.wav")
local sound = sanviastoryvc
voice=sound:play()
System.oadisable()
end

it will just play the sound when soundplay==400 and thats just for one second....
Does someone know how to use it?

What are you trying to do?

local sound = sanviastoryvc
voice=sound:play()
end
System.oadisable()

This code will play music file and sound file when soundplay==400 so just for a second and then it stops the music and sound file

if soundplay == 400 then
System.oaenable()
Music.playFile("music/background/bgmusic1.mod", true)
sanviastoryvc=Sound.load("music/voices/sanviastory.wav")
local sound = sanviastoryvc
voice=sound:play()
System.oadisable()
end

This is the begin movie of the game and there is some guy telling a story
and the while that guy is talking I want to use background music..
the wav file is the voice of the guy thats talking and the .mod file is the backgroundmusic

[homemister91]

you should only call System.oaenable() once. If you call it multaple times then it can error out. So just call it at the beginning of the lua file

[Light_AleX]

Hey.

Just a tip, if you want help about LPHM, head over to LPHM forums.

[seanpaul223]

Use System.oaenable() just once.
Then set a time interval for the sound.
Just asserts values to its bounds.

local LeftBound,RoghtBound
if soundplay > LeftBound and soundplay < RightBound then...
--code
end

Thanks Guys that helped

Does someone know how to encrypt compile lua files from luaplayerhm ??? I tried luac.exe but it gives error:

luac: '}' expected;
last token read: '=' at line 284 in file 'script.lua'
