How do i make custom music list??

ok, i am making this map with 2 teams, team one is mixed units of NE and Human, team 2 is mixed units of Orc and Undead. Here's my quick question~:ggani: i want to make a custom music list so when i play team 1 it will play mixed theme music of NE and Human that i picked, and same for team 2, mixed music of Orc and Undead. With my noobie triggering skill, i can only pick one music and it plays for both team over and over...:(

could somebody help me out?

To cycle music do something like this, but I dunno how to make it only play for one team...

Make a Variable called MusicCycle, make its default value 1

E-
C- MusicCycle equal to 1
A- Play <Music>
Wait <However long the music is>
Set MusicCycle 2

E-
C- MusicCycle equal to 2
A- Play <Different Music>
Wait <however long the music is>
Set MusicCycle 3

etc...

thx dude~ i'll try it out~ :gsmile:

But that won't seperate it from either player, from what I can tell..

Only way I can really see is to overwrite the original music files. But, seeing as how you'd have to import each one twice (to, say, replace both Orc1.mp3 and Undead1.mp3), that could make the map a little too big.

But thenagain, any map with MP3s in it would be too big for Battle.Net anyway.

hehe~ i kinda gave it up to play different musics for each team ..:bgrun:

btw...errr...so how do i make Variable called MusicCycle?
i'm really new to trigger stuffs, it would be nice if u could show me bit more specific. :ggani:

can anyone help me on this? emote_confused

Press Ctrl+B to from the Trigger Editor. New variable, Choose INTEGER from the dropdown menu, and name it MusicCycle

Try doing a search before you ask about something. If you want to loop music read this post HERE. It requires no variables and no triggers to loop, only a trigger to start it.

I know, I said it wouldn't. I don't know how to do that.

That makes the music play over and over and over. He wants the music to automatically cycle, as in actually change, not just loop the same music over and over.

All it requires is two triggers and one trigger edit:

Map Initialization
--Clear the music playlist
--Stop all playing music
--Trigger - Run [Music1] (ignoring conditions)


Music1
--Sound- Play [Song1]
--Wait for Sound - [Last Player Sound]
--Trigger - Run [Music2] (ignoring conditions)


Music2
--Sound- Play [Song2]
--Wait for Sound - [Last Player Sound]
--Trigger - Run [Music1] (ignoring conditions)

hey thx for ur help SpectreReturns, however it seems like i can't make it work..?
i did try to follow ur insturction, but i can't seem to make it work..

here's what i did..

Event - Map Initialization
Condition - (skipped)
Actions: Sound - Clear the music list (i couldn't find -stop all playing music, so i ausumed it's this one -clear the music list)
: Sound - Stop the currently playing music theme (couldn't find -stop all playing music, so i picked this one)
: Trigger - Run (this trigger) (ignoring conditions)
This one when i click on (this trigger) to choose Music to play, there's nothing else to choose but (this trigger)...

thus unable to follow rest of ur instruction...:(

i'm really new for this....thus easiest way would be some screen shots....

if i'm not asking too much...can somebody help?

.....no replies.......perhaps its harder than i thought to make a custom music list.....:bgrun:

You have to create both triggers before you create actions in them... and select the trigger to run from the "Variables" drop-down, not the "Functions" drop-down.
