I have this code:

if(st_phobia_konferenca==1)
{
llPlaySound("AllMental1",1.0); // 10seconds
llSleep(9);
llPlaySound("AllMental2",1.0); // 10seconds
llSleep(9);
llPlaySound("AllMental3",1.0);
llSleep(7);
llSay(0,"All ,,,";);

st_phobia_konferenca=0;
st_phobia_konferenca2=1;
}
else if(st_phobia_konferenca2==1)
{
llPlaySound("In case of phobia the treatment11",1.0); // 5seconds
llSleep(5);
llPlaySound("In case of phobia the treatment12",1.0); //7seconds
llSleep(7);
llPlaySound("In case of phobia the treatment2",1.0);
llSleep(2);
llSay(0,"In case of ...";);
st_phobia_konferenca2=0;
st_phobia_konferenca3=1;
}
.....

When this is activated, sometimes plays only part of one sound, then waits and then plays another one... i dont know what is the problem... and i need solution soon :(

i preloaded sound on state_entry()...

I think it's playsound that's the problem, when it gets an overlap it acts funny (plus sleep isn't exactly reliable)

you might look into other functions like triggersound or playsoundmaster/playsoundslave...

or if nothing else, it might be possible to have the sounds play from a subscript, controlled via link messages

It looks that llPlaySoundMaster doesnt exist, only slave... and what does llSetSoundQueueing((TRUE); mean and where should i put it?

From the wiki: llSetSoundQueueing(integer queue)

Sets whether successive calls to llPlaySound, llLoopSound, etc., (attached sounds) interrupt the playing sound. The default for objects is FALSE. Setting queue to TRUE will make the sound wait until the current playing sound reaches its end. The queue is one level deep (i.e., only one sound will queue up at a time).

Note: State transitions disable sound queueing. So the queue is set to TRUE, and then the state changes, sound queueing will be disabled.

http://rpgstats.com/wiki/index.php?title=LlSetSoundQueueing

And you can always put it in the state_entry function, in the state you use the llPlaySound function. But beware, only one level deep.

sry had loop sound on the mind (with the master/slave thing) ...

sound queueing looks to be the best method of solving your problem....

also not that if you try to play the same sound file before the first playthrough completes, it will be silently ignored... not sure if that senario is improved by queueing or not
