in search of sound scripts

I'm currently looking for two scripts - if someone has them out there they'd be willing to sell/give that'd be great, otherwise.. if anyone here would be willing to create?

First Script: I have 7 sound files that I want to be played, swapped in and out to create a looped background noise.. and if there's any way - to do so randomly.. this should run on it's own without me having to click it after it's gone through all the sounds..

Second Script: this one sounds easy but I'm not a scripter - what do I know? - I just need a script that'll play one sound indefinitley.

thanks!

I haven't thought much about the first script, but the second one is VERY easy.

llLoopSound( string sound, float volume )

is everything you need... Look for it on the wiki for more information.

I believe the answer to your first question involves strided lists. Each stride would have two parts, the sound name, and the sound length. The script would then select a stride at random and play [sound] for [length] seconds.

I'm not entirely sure that's right, but it should work. I'd test the idea, but I'm at work.

Or two lists, one of lengths the other of names rather than strided lists would work. You select a random integer in range 0<=#<list_length and pick the two elements out. Nice than the list randomiser.

for a really nice one you should also preload the next sound so they play smoothly.

I've not tried this, but something like:

list soundNames=["sound1", "sound2", "sound3"]; //etc. use your names here.
list soundLengths=[1.5, 8.9, 10.0];//get the lengths.
string sound;
float length;

setupSound()
{
    integer i;
    if(sound=="")
    {
        i==llFloor(llFrand(llGetListLength(soundNames)));
        llPlaySound(llList2String(soundNames, i), 1.0);
        llSetTimerEvent(llList2Float(soundLengths, i));
    } else 
    {
        llPlaySound(sound, 1.0);
        llSetTimerEvent(length);
    }
    i=llFloor(llFrand(llGetListLength(soundNames)));
    sound=llList2String(soundNames, i);
    length=llList2Float(soundLengths, i);
    llPreloadSound(sound);
}

default
{
    state_entry()
    {
        setupSound();
    }
    timer()
    {
        setupSound();
    }
}

Hi,

take a look at the Proximity Sounds Module that I am offering at my vendors and through the weblinks provided below! On request I also have a system available with multiple synchronized sound emitters if you need to cover a larger area.

IM me if you have any questions
