Looping Music

[Avascar]

Hello everyone, I just would like to know how exactly to play a audio clip (music), set it at a specific volume (using a variable), and make it loop? I managed to play a audio clip and set it at a variable volume but it's not looping (used Play Audio). Any help? Thanks a bunch

well, you could just loop the state with audio play itself It should have a Finished Event, which you can just loop back to the same state.

  Got me! I didn't notice it when I checked, but I must've replaced the PlaySound action with a custom one I made. +1 On the advice to always store altered and new actions in a custom folder  

For now, try the action in the attachments, I've renamed it so it won't overwrite the original action. I'll have a look to see how to do this properly with the default actions now.

LOL well I figured it out, Make a new Action, place the the Audio Play Action , set the Game Object to your Game Object, Set in your Clip, and Finished Event to Finished, ten add a Transaction to Finished, connect that to Start, then add a Audio Source to it, (if u didn't already), in the Inspector set your Audio Clip to the Same Clip, then check the box that says Loop, and your done.

Only problem i am having is a 0.5 second delay before it starts again.

well, if you want to loop the music a finite number of times or if you want to loop sound that should normally not be looped, then there should be a better alternative imo. But the whole sound department seems to be rather weak in Unity I guess

guess so, but it works for now till I find a better way, I just need it for the Main Menu's theme song,only other thing id need for the main menu is to have it play a sound or 2 at certain times
