Creating a Music box receiving Errors

[Crys Staryk]

Good morning all,

I am trying to create a music box.

I am trying to use a touch to open script along with a play music on touch script.  When I touch the prim used for the lid it opens then I get an error message saying cannot find sound followed by the music playing correctly.  Not sure why it's giving me the error or how to correct it.

 

Thank you for any assistance you can provide,

Crys

It's hard to say without seeing the script, but it sounds like you are triggering the sound in more than one part of the logic, or that you have defined your sound variable as a global string and then accidentally redefined it later.

This is the script i'm using

 

//

list myList= [];
integer preloadfile;
float volume;
integer totalfiles;
integer ison;

default
{
    state_entry()
    {
        ison=FALSE;
        llStopSound();
           //llSetSoundQueueing(TRUE);
                       integer i=0;
         while (i<llGetInventoryNumber(INVENTORY_SOUND))
         {
             myList = myList + [llGetInventoryName(INVENTORY_SOUND,i)];
             i++;
            }
    }
    touch_start(integer total_number)
    {    
    totalfiles = llGetListLength(myList);
    if(ison==TRUE)
    {
          llSetTimerEvent(0);
    llStopSound();
    ison = FALSE;
}
else
{
    ison=TRUE;
        preloadfile = 0;
         volume = 1.0;
        llSetSoundQueueing(FALSE);
        llPreloadSound(llList2String(myList,preloadfile));
        llPreloadSound(llList2String(myList,preloadfile+1));
        llSleep(2);
         llPlaySound(llList2String(myList,preloadfile), volume); 
        llSetTimerEvent((float)llGetSubString(llList2String(myList,preloadfile), -7, -4));
                preloadfile += 1;
          

         //  llMessageLinked(LINK_ALL_OTHERS, 0, "on", llDetectedKey(0));
}
}
timer()
{
             
    llPlaySound(llList2String(myList,preloadfile), volume); 
    llSetTimerEvent((float)llGetSubString(llList2String(myList,preloadfile), -7, -4));
            preloadfile += 1;
            if(preloadfile==totalfiles)
            {
                preloadfile = 0;
            }
            llPreloadSound(llList2String(myList,preloadfile));
        }
      changed(integer change)
    {
        if(change & CHANGED_INVENTORY)
        {
            llResetScript();
        }
    }
    on_rez(integer param)
    {
        llResetScript();
    }
}

I think you will find that one of your llPreloadSound statements is trying to read past the end of myList.  I suggest adding a few strategically-placed llOwnerSay statements to find out what sound file it is trying to load in each of those spots.   BTW, the llStopSound statement in your touch_start event will have no effect.  That function only applies to looped sounds.

Thank you I will try that
