Music volume

[Zenytee]

Hello, how can I change the music volume, both in game and in main menu?
I want to preset a volume because I deleted the settings menu so players won't be able to enter there.
Thank you, much appreciated.

You can find that information in the Audio chapter of the documentation. Look here: https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/audio.ht ... set_volume
For example:

Code: Select all

    $ renpy.music.set_volume(0.5, 0.6, channel="ambient")

Thank you for the reply. I looked at the forum and did what u said. instead of "ambient" I put the channel "music", but it doesn't change the volume at all. I tried different numbers and it's the same volume any number I try.

To set a default volume use (options.rpy):

Code: Select all

    ## The default audio volumes
    config.default_music_volume = 0.5
    config.default_sfx_volume = 0.7
    config.default_voice_volume = 1.0

As far as I can remember I had once also trouble to use:

Code: Select all

$ renpy.music.set_volume(0.5, 0.6, channel="ambient")

Try this ....

Code: Select all

    python:
        _preferences.set_volume('music', 0.5)

Still not working :/
I tried to set it from 0.1 to 1.0 but no difference. I don't know what else I could try

Here is the code I use. Test it out and it work for me:

Code: Select all

    python:
        _preferences.set_volume('music', 0.5)
        renpy.restart_interaction()

It the last line of code that refresh the change after the first line.

Strangely, the:

Code: Select all

$ renpy.music.set_volume(0.5, 0, channel='music')

should also work at adjust the music volume, though. But it does not affected the bar in the setting menu.

Make sure to put those code inside the label, for example:

Code: Select all

label main_menu:

    python:
        _preferences.set_volume('music', 0.5)
        renpy.restart_interaction()

I pasted this at the end of options.rpy and it works, but it makes the game loop forever while skipping the initial options screen.
could you post a picture of where i should post this code to make it work propperly
also, whats the code to lowering the sounds?
Thanx
