Play Sound action volume cap? [SOLVED]
« on: March 29, 2013, 06:59:59 PM »
Hi guys! So i´ve started a new project which is now my 10-week graduation project

Im doing a "Diablo meets Xcom" style game, and im almost done with the main-menu functionality, the only problem i have, is that i have a play sound action in the menu in order to play the theme music - even though my PC audio is turned to max etc, and the "Volume" of the play sound action is at 1, the music is nowhere near the volume i want (i want it louder). It´s quite quiet compared to say, if i watch a normal youtube video on the pc etc. Is there no way to make the sound louder? I´ve tried setting the volume to 2 or even 10 but the volume stays the same as at 1. Turning it to 0.5 works, as it cuts the volume in half but.. I just want it louder =( any help?

Hey bud,

                 Click the object the Audio is attached to and you will see small Blue Squares, if you r zoomed in enough, click on them and drag them out make the circle bigger but not too much bigger this will make the range of the song much much more, and will bring out the sound a lot more. I hope this helps ya bud.
