[Tutorial] MAPINFO + Custom Music

[Russel]

Yes, you can change a sound or music or do basically anything to audio using Audacity.

[PotatoStrike]

But I've done it and when I want to play the music, it mute it!

[Russel]

do you get any sort of error...?

Actually, let's move this to PMs, this getting a bit ludicrous.

[BookofDobson]

"Script error, "Wep. wad: MAPINFO line 1
TOM01: Unknown top level key word"

FFFF what?

NVM got it However anytime I play the map it crashes my pc in such a way Zand won't close and I have to restart my pc

[TheRealRoyale]

how do i make the "boss music"?

¿Script for 1 vs 1 on LMS? Well, not 1 vs 1, I mean, when there remain 2 players on LMS

[Russel]

A lot of custom map packs use some variation on this script for non objective-focused maps:

(click to show/hide)

// This entire paste file is plug-and-go. Just copy everything below these comments
// replace BOSSMUS and VICMUS with the song file names of your choice.
 
str BOSSSONG = "BOSSMUS";
str VICSONG = "VICMUS";
int bossMusic = 0;
 
script 25 DEATH
{
Delay(1);
int musiccheck = ACS_ExecuteWithResult(972);
if(bossmusic!=musiccheck)
    {
    bossmusic=musiccheck;
    if(bossmusic==1)
        {
        SetMusic(BOSSSONG);
        }
    if(bossmusic==2)
        {
        SetMusic(VICSONG);
        }
    }
}
 
script 26 (int who) DISCONNECT
{
ACS_Execute(25, 0);
}

Just copy-paste that into the scripts of your map, change the song titles, make sure there's a line that says #include "zcommon.acs" and compile.

I replaced the Bossmus with "MM7FBOS" but sends me an error
"mm7fbos: identifier has not been declared."  | SCRIPTS (line 27)

(click to show/hide)

#include "zcommon.acs"

Script 1 Enter
{
if(GetCvar("duel")==1){terminate;}
if(PlayerFrags() == GetCVar("fraglimit") - 5){
SetMusic("MM7FBOS",0);
terminate;
}
Delay(1);
restart;
}

str BOSSSONG = "MM7FBOS";
str VICSONG = "VICMUS";
int bossMusic = 0;
 
script 2 DEATH
{
Delay(1);
int musiccheck = ACS_ExecuteWithResult(972);
if(bossmusic!=musiccheck)
    {
    bossmusic=musiccheck;
    if(bossmusic==1)
        {
        SetMusic(MM7FBOS);
        }
    if(bossmusic==2)
        {
        SetMusic(VICSONG);
        }
    }
}
 
script 3 (int who) DISCONNECT
{
ACS_Execute(25, 0);
}

[Russel]

First, remove script 1
Second, BOSSSONG and VICSONG were supposed to stay as those two names.

Third, the script numbers were set up to be plug and play. There was no need to change them. Script 3 should be calling ACS_Execute(2, 0) if you're going to use those numbers.


The resulting scripts should look like:
The script should look like:

(click to show/hide)

#include "zcommon.acs"

str BOSSSONG = "MM7FBOS";
str VICSONG = "MM4VIC"; // This should be some existing song
int bossMusic = 0;
 
script 2 DEATH
{
Delay(1);
int musiccheck = ACS_ExecuteWithResult(972);
if(bossmusic!=musiccheck)
    {
    bossmusic=musiccheck;
    if(bossmusic==1)
        {
        SetMusic(BOSSSONG); // This should stay as BOSSSONG
        }
    if(bossmusic==2)
        {
        SetMusic(VICSONG);
        }
    }
}
 
script 3 (int who) DISCONNECT
{
ACS_Execute(2, 0);
}

[MarioHead]

Thank you! Now the map it works as it should

(click to show/hide)

#include "zcommon.acs"

str BOSSSONG = "MM7FBOS";
str VICSONG = "MM4VIC";
int bossMusic = 0;
 
script 1 DEATH
{
Delay(1);
int musiccheck = ACS_ExecuteWithResult(972);
if(bossmusic!=musiccheck)
    {
    bossmusic=musiccheck;
    if(bossmusic==1)
        {
        SetMusic(BOSSSONG);
        }
    if(bossmusic==2)
        {
        SetMusic(VICSONG);
        }
    }
}
 
script 2 (int who) DISCONNECT
{
ACS_Execute(1, 0);
}

Script 3 Enter
{
if(GetCvar("duel")==1){terminate;}
if(PlayerFrags() == GetCVar("fraglimit") - 5){
SetMusic("MM7FBOS",0);
terminate;
}
Delay(1);
restart;
}

^ The script if you wanna see ^

[Russel]

No I mean... the script I told you to remove is redundant. The script I gave you was explicitly better as it applies to all game modes.

Thanks again
