global sound object

Archive: 10 posts


This is something I would like. A global sound object.

What is it?
The global sound object would control how high the volume is for specific things. For instance, if you only want to hear music in your level and NOTHING else, you could adjust it like that. Or just silence, for a space level maybe?
From here you could also turn off the background sounds from the backgrounds. Some of those do not fit into a level even if the background fits.

How does it work?
It would work just like the global lightning and water objects. You could also have all these settings at the end of the tools bag so you can have them on from the beginning of the level.
From there you could have volume controls just like with the music. But this time they would be for music, sound effects, background sounds and collision sounds (those that you hear when sackboy walks on something or two materials collide)

Why?
Well, some levels could work with only sound effects and music, no need for background noises or collision sounds. It would make music levels better since you could only hear the music. Space levels could be quiet for real, maybe some music in the background but nothing else.
Being able to remove the background noises has been a wish of many people here and this could do just that.

What does it look like?
Umm I dunno, that's up to Mm to decide. I could imagine something like a highlighted speaker. Maybe something like this:

Sorry I'm not the greatest artist, but you get the point...

So what do you think?

lol at the icon! This sounds like a great idea. An option for sounds as well that goes beyond player range. Emanating throughout the entire level. This way custom music could be made more easily.2010-04-06 23:14:00

So with this I could manupilate all the sounds that are not just speakers? Awesome! I agree!2010-04-07 15:07:00

very nice. It'd be great for levels where certain sounds dont fit.
should have these options:
Background noise (On/Off)
Sackboy sounds (On/Off)
Collision sounds (On/Off)
Hazard sounds (On/Off)
Music/Audio objects (On/Off)

I was thinking of volume control on all them, then you can have collision sounds but really quiet ones if you like...
But that would be for Mm to decide what they do if they ever decide to implement this awesome idea

MM neeeeedd to add this. Seriously it would be so good. Sound plays a huge roll in animation and games. I think these would be perfect for adding that much customization to your creations soundtrack. With the sliders to adjust volumes you could end up with something fairly unique sounding. I think I'd prefer audio objects to have a volume option within each one instead of a global volume for all of them.2010-04-11 18:59:00

This would be very handy for level introductions, I hate that jumping sound!

*swoosh* *swoosh*

STFU AND STOP JUMPING!

Or thanks to your suggestion, we can eliminate the jumping sounds for a peaceful introduction!

Make it happen MM!
This would be seriously useful for most levels! It sounds really cool. And those background noises can be so annoying... Eg. the plane and dog in the Garden background. Can be very annoying if you want to have a calm peaceful environment..

EDIT: Ohhhh.. There should be a 'Hazard Sound' option. That gas sound is >.<
