Keep Music Playing Through Scenes?

[David1334]

Hey guys, is there a way to keep one track playing constantly throughout multiple scenes without stopping and restarting the track?

Try setting this in level set:

musicoverlap 1

Thanks, this is what I've been looking for

but if you need the music to loop properly, you have to place an empty level before the scenes:

music           data/music/03NSlashersbgm1.ogg 3140050
notime 1
settime 0
background	data/scenes/end/back
panel		data/scenes/end/back
frontpanel	data/scenes/end/back 
order	a

spawn LVL01Darkness
flip 1
coords	160 130
at	0

#spawn	timer
#coords	160 120
#at	0

otherwise the music will still loop , but not from the correct offset - here is a video example of what it looks like:
https://youtu.be/-eAlIWAEoAk?t=339
scene plays music - continues to level - BUT it loops from the begginng
the video uses the current version of the game


in the corrected version, using the level.txt code i posted, the music goes on through the scenes & loops properly in the level.

here is how to place the level before a scene:

branch NSagain

z 142 240 240
file data/levels/LvL1music.txt
scene data/scenes/demo/sc0.txt
scene data/scenes/demo/empty.txt

z 142 240 240
file	data/levels/lv1aX.txt
...

you will also need this "LVL01Darkness" entity, you can rename it to anything you need - just don't forget to update the models.txt

name	LVL01Darkness
#type	text
type	none
#subtype noskip
setlayer 999999998 #over hud & everythin#
###setlayer 1000
anim idle
	delay 1
	offset	160 130
	frame	data/chars/stop/01a ## a black rectangle graphic that goes over the hud and everything
