sound footsteps !?

[Blue]

sound of footsteps when stepping on the grass, water, is it possible?, is there a tutorial for that maybe?

Only way I can think without a source edit, which would be a mission to do and not recommended is to create an map event that runs on player touch and plays a sound. This would mean u would have to put a event tile on everything you want to make "footsteps" on.

Please don't do this, unless you want your game to not work with a couple of maps and a few players.

 

The only feasible way of doing this at the moment would be to make a source edit, and a method to determine what sound should be played on which tile.

Yeah that's why I said "which would be a mission to do and not recommended"

Use event parameters to check the player's X and Y coordinates, and when one changes, play a footstep noise.

@jcsnider did something like this in our pokegame.

 

play sound when in grass, should ask him

Details like this really shouldn't be handled server side though. Could have a tile attribute of sorts that plays a sound. (ie sound group attributes)

I only have a few weeks running the engine and I am interested in implementing footsteps sounds in my game, any advice on which part of the client files the map related part is handled?
