Triggering a sound entering water..

Hello,

Lets say you want to trigger or play a sound when someone enters prim water. This seems opretty simple. The problem i'm having is that because the water is a phantom object, I cannot use a collision event.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Paul

If you don't get any other responses I think I have an object that can do this, and I can send it to you tonight. I'm not sure if the scripts in it are modifiable however.

How about using llVolumeDetect?

Yep, RJ has it right. Be careful though, as I understand it llVolumeDetect does *not* work on prims which have been made phantom in the usual way through the edit widget - so make it un-phantom, then drop in a sound and a script like this:

default
{
    state_entry()
    {
        llVolumeDetect(TRUE);
    }

    collision_start(integer num_detected)
    {
        llPlaySound("splashsound", 1.0);
    }
}

Thanks a bunch. I never really understood what that function did, but it works fine. Just add the collision_end event to that and you have sounds now coming in and out of the swimming pool. I recorded some cool sounds for pools, so if anyone wants any copies of the sounds, look me up and give me an IM.

Thanks again,
