Play SE in subfolder

[Kyuukon]

So, I'm planning on featuring voice acting on my game but since there are tons of sounds it'd be convenient to have them in a subfolder (let's call it "VO") inside the default "Audio/SE".


The problem is when I try to point to that folder. I tried lots of commands but none seems to work. It always redirects me to the SE root folder.


Example of what I want:


AudioManager.playSe({name: "VO/hey", volume: 70, pitch: 100, pan: 0 });


this above does not work!


I hope I was clear enough, thanks!

Because AudioManager.playSe uses the se folder.


If you want another folder, you're going to have to create duplicate functions to all the SE functions in AudioManager and tell it to use the path you want, and then you call your new function instead of playSe.

The audio player is (I think) unable to look for sounds in sub-folders. Maybe give each of your dialogs a code as filename?

Thank you! I went for this solution and works perfectly! Now I can even add the volume control to the option menu !
