Vb6 Sounds

[H]

Hi Guys,

I am using the PlaySound to play .wav files in my application. Eg.

a = PlaySound(App.P ath & chip_sound, SND_ASYNC)

Is it possible to play two sounds at the same time? Everytime the 2nd sound
is started the first sound is automatically stopped..

Thanks!

Re: Vb6 Sounds

In a word, no. The function can stop currently playing sounds to play the
sound you specify, or it can check if there's already a sound playing, and
if it is, not play the new sound. Search on microsoft.com for PlaySound for
a full explanation of the flags.

I haven't actually got round to adding any sounds to my games yet... but I
plan to! The first place I'd look for this sort of task is game programming
sites. Maybe you could consider using DirectSound?? Depending on the scope
of your application, obviously.
